"Was it true?"

"I— "

"Did you really put a bounty on this woman's head?"

"I — didn't— "

"Don't you dare lie to me, young lady! Did you or… did you not put a bounty on this woman's head!?"

"Grandfather…" Lyle approached her grandfather as she tried to suppress her shaking hands. "I didn't mean to do that."

"Stupid woman! Get out of here."

"But— "

"I said get out!"

However, it seems that she was too late. But what was Gabi's plan? Did she come here to extort money from her grandfather?
