Xia's words were full of bitter venom, but Celina still had to turn away from Antoni so he wouldn't see her relieved smile. After she gathered her composure a little, she turned back to their prisoner.

"Now that you got your promise, Antoni, tell us all about these evil plans."

Celina's face showed just how much she believed Antoni's statement. "Yeah, he is just being a power-hungry bastard. Like you are. Or do you work for a pure idea, Antoni? Does Loupe at least pay you?"

"Of course he does! How stupid do you think I am, Rojek? And when Loupe becomes the next Chief, I will be the best man to put in his former position on the Board.
