Troubling Matters

Clifford was silent for a very long time after listening to the report that he had received from Steven. After a while, he finally spoke, "That was something that I had never expected at all."

"That's right. Nobody had ever expected that Jaden might actually be related to the incident that had led to this entire city being locked down. It seems that he might have offended someone with a big background this time." Steven responded.

Clifford did not respond, but instead, he seemed to be musing about something. Then, he suddenly asked, "I'm quite curious. Just how was it that Jaden ended up being involved with something like this? After all, I can understand that he might be involved with this group of people that had kidnapped Scarlet, and as a bodyguard, and being the fact that he was being targeted, he would kill them.
