100 billion
She was losing her patience; it was surprising that no one stopped her at the entrance. She thought it might be because of the early morning and off hours of business in the pub.
But when she entered the pub, the scene in front of her eyes froze her blood and tears started rolling down on her cheeks.
She saw a man sitting on the chair like a king, and Henry was kneeling in front of him. Henry was covered with blood as if he was beaten to death.
She didn't notice the man too much, as her concentration was entirely on Henry. She ran towards him and cried, "Brother, what is this happening?"
Henry was startled after hearing her voice; he turned back and saw his sister running towards him; this is the only thing he didn't want.
He was praying that these people can do whatever they want with him, but they should not know about his sister's existence, but now she was here, how will he protect her from these people?
Before Samara could reach Henry, she was caught by two strong bodyguards. She tried to break free, but her strength was nothing in front of the strong bodyguards.
As she was crying and trying to break free her hands from their grip, two bullet shots were heard back to back, and everything went silent.
Samara froze in her spot when the two bulky bodyguards who were holding her fell on the ground, leaving her hands.
Then she saw the person who was sitting on the chair like a king; when she saw the face of the person who shot two bodyguards, her blood stopped running.
It was Demon Knight, her college trustee, whom she had seen a month ago. Many questions ran in her mind like, 'what is he doing here? What relation did he have with all these and many more?
Demon slowly walked towards Henry and said, "Henry, so tell me how you will repay my loss?"
Samara was puzzled by hearing him; as she was free now, she ran towards Henry, who was kneeling on the ground, and hugged him tightly, and asked crying, "Brother what is all these? What loss is he talking about?"
Henry looked at his sister, he had tears in his eyes, he had too much pain in his whole body, and he managed to say, "You shouldn't have come here."
She said, tears dripping continuously on her cheeks, "Brother, how could I not come, you didn't come home, I was worried about you."
When brother and sister were talking, Demon was standing close to them, he was continuously looking at her; this was the first time he saw her so closely.
Her face was so clean, without any spot or makeup. Her hair was still a little damp; she must have taken a bath sometime back.
She had tied her hair in a messy bun, still a few locks of her hair were falling on her face. Demon was mesmerised by her beauty.
Soon he interrupted the duo of brother and sister and said, "Henry, tell me fast, how are you going to pay for my loss? If you hadn't leaked the news about my meeting, the police wouldn't have come and arrested my people, and I wouldn't have suffered such a huge loss."

Henry said, "Boss, believe me I don't know anything about any meeting in a pleading tone. I didn't leak any news."
John handed over a remote to Demon; he switched on a huge TV hanging on the wall, and said, "Henry, how can you deny this?"
On TV Henry was talking to a guy he thought was his colleague, again Demon's voice was heard, "You know this person, he is a police officer and you were talking to him, how can you deny this?" Henry's eyes were wide open, he said in a trembling voice, "Boss, please, believe me, I didn't know he was a police officer, I thought he was one of our pub staff."
Demon sneered and said in a cold tone, "Henry, now I have shown you the proof; also, I am not killing you because I need to recover my loss; otherwise, it won't take a minute for me to kill you." This time Samara spoke, "Sir, please tell me how much money you have lost, me and my brother will work hard and repay your money."
Demon was lost for few seconds when he heard his Samara talking to him; John cleared his throat, and Demon was brought back out of his thoughts and said in a cold tone, "100 billion" Samara and Henry were stunned to hear the amount, they have never seen so much money in their lives, and they don't have a good job from where they can earn so much money.
Henry cried and said, "Boss, please show some mercy, I promise I will repay this amount by working hard, just give me some time."
Demon looked at Henry, "How much time do you need?"
"Sir, please give me six months. I will pay it anyhow," said Henry.
Henry knew that whatever he says, Demon will not trust him, so he thought of giving in to protect himself and his little sister.
Demon said, "But what is the guarantee that you will come back with my money and you will not escape from this city."
"I will be the guarantor" this time, Samara said and continued, "I will be the guarantor, but you have to promise me that you will never touch my brother or harm him anyway." Demon smiled in satisfaction; everything was going as per his plan.
But Henry retorted, "NO, Samara, stay out of it, you are still a kid, this matter is between adults."
Demon liked how Henry spoiled Samara like his daughter, which was the only reason he let him hug his Samara.
He killed his two men because they touched Samara, but he didn't mind Henry touching Samara.
Demon has never planned to kill Henry; he knew if anything happens to Henry, Samara won't survive.
