Ghost from the Past

FORREST

IT WAS gut-wrenching, terrifying shit to face him today—the person I feared for years, François Xavier. In a few minutes, I would be standing in front of him—face to face—eye to eye.

The thing that feared me the most was if I could walk out of here alive after this most anticipated meeting. I knew for a fact that people feared him, followed him like a goddamn god, and I was nothing, no one to him, to anyone. I was just an insignificant businessman, nothing more.

The five-star hotel lobby was busy as always. These people were not aware that a dangerous person on the planet was just staying above their heads.

I scanned around as I entered with nerves buzzing through me. This whole situation wracked every bone in my body and made me think if it was worth my efforts. I hoped it is.
