A Mission

 "Daniella Miller is the last stock of your fake identities, so after this mission ends you will have a long time to rest before I will have time to create a new identity for you again, that's the reason I believe that you are the best person to carry out this mission, especially since you always like new challenges, right?" said Tim to Rebekah.

"You think killing people is a challenge for me? Are you crazy?" said Rebekah.

"Rebekah, listen-"

"No, Tim, we often scammed and robbed some rich people's wealth indeed, but that doesn't mean we can kill people who aren't necessarily guilty without a doubt!" said Rebekah.

"Then you would prefer me to die and put the children in this orphanage's life at risk too?" Tim asked his younger sister. Rebekah fell silent when she heard Tim's question.

"Besides, the murder you're going to commit to Andrew is no different from the robs and the scams you've done to Leonardo and James and their families, we always did bad things to people who did things that are just as bad, and not to make ourselves looks holy, but ... we do all this for those children, we have to do anything for them," continued Tim.

"What if it wasn't Andrew who killed Dorothea? You also don't know who the person who gave you this mission is, do you? Most likely if that person is Billy Lawrence's business rival, don't be easily consumed by things like that, at least you should know who's the person who gave you this mission first," said Alan to Tim.

"We don't need to know who that person is if what he wants is clear and he had already paid for us right away, if we do what he wants, he will be satisfied, and if we don't do it he will kill us, and to be honest I don't care if that person is business rival to Billy or not, I would argue that Andrew was indeed the one who killed Dorothea and deserves a fair price for what he did to her. Actually, I really wanted to do that straight away without making it Rebekah's job, but there will be none of you who can do my job if I carry out the mission. We have no other choice, Rebekah has to do it, then I will go back to traveling to find mission stocks, while you and Laura will keep the children here as usual," said Tim, but Alan and Rebekah are both silents.

"Sigh." Tim then sighed.

"Rebekah, you are leaving for Nadem City tomorrow morning and as much as possible you should be able not to be hunted by the people in this town during your trip to Nadem, stay at a boarding house when you arrive at Nadem City, Billy's farm now needs new worker, so you should immediately apply for work there when you arrive at Nadem City," continued Tim.

"I haven't even given an answer whether I reject this mission or not," said Rebekah to Tim.

"You have to accept it, right now our only hope is you, Stephen hasn't given any news for more than a year, Susan also hasn't given any news for three months, the most likely is they won't come back to us whatever the reasons are, Roger and Patricia both explain that at least they still need months more until they can withdraw from their current victims and back to us, the money you got from the Green family and the last remaining money we received from Susan won't be enough to support the children until Patricia and Roger come back, but of course the money from the mission to kill Andrew will suffice for everything, even though the money from that mission is already in our hands, but I don't want us playing with fire with the guy who's already paying us to murder Andrew, the risk is too high, believe me. I've been weighing all of them, there are forty children that we take care of, killing Andrew is the most appropriate step," explained Tim. This explanation made Alan and Rebekah unable to say any word anymore, everything that Tim has said made sense, and the best decision for Rebekah is to accept this mission and kill Andrew Lawrence.

Rebekah then takes a deep breath, then exhaled heavily. "All right, I'll do it," said Rebekah.

"Rebekah ..." Alan whispered, with a heavy heart Alan is forced to agree to the course of this mission as well.

"So all I have to do is kill Andrew Lawrence, right?" asked Rebekah to Tim.

"Yes, but the person who paid for us asked that there be no commotion and suspicion after you killed Andrew," replied Tim.

"You mean I have to make the murder looks like a suicide case?"

"That guy didn't explain it in detail, but I think he wants Andrew's body won't find by anyone so that the case doesn't drag on like the Dorothea case, and he also doesn't want you to be dragged into Andrew's death case so that his identity won't be revealed to anyone," said Tim.

"It sounds very difficult to do, but I will do my best," said Rebekah.

"But there is one more thing."

Rebekah and Alan both frowned as Tim said that.

"I want you to do another thing outside of this mission, this is a mission from me so we can get more money," continued Tim.

"Tim, you better not be greedy," Alan warned Tim.

"I know, but the mission from me is worth trying even though the risk is very high. Rebekah, try to be in a hidden marriage relationship with Andrew," Tim told Rebekah.

"What ...?" said Rebekah softly.

"Gosh, shouldn't your neck hurts because you keep staring at the cattle farm? Young Master can't be seen, he's eating his lunch, so try to stop looking at the cattle farm for a moment," said Karen to Daniella, who had not stopped turning and staring towards the cattle farm, but she did it not to see Andrew, but because she was lost in her memories.

"Ahahaha, no, Auntie, I'm not trying to see Young Master, I'm just feeling sorry for his horse. Why does he let the horse 'roasting' like that?" Daniella replied Karen as she finally stopped looking at the cattle farm and looked back at the other farmers.

"Maybe Young Master is deliberately sunbathing his horse like that because he wants the bones of the horse to become stronger." Another farmer, Robert, spoke.

"Sunbathing can make bones stronger?" Daniella asked Robert.

"I don't know about that, but I feel like my bones always got stronger when I sunbathe," replied Robert.

"Hmmm, I'll go to the horse, poor horse," said the girl.

"Your heart is very soft indeed." Karen praised Daniella, they both smiled before finally Daniella, who had finished her lunch, walked over to Andrew's horse which is tied to the fence between the potato farm and cattle farm.

Daniella then stroked the horse's head and felt very sorry for it. The girl then pulled out quite a lot of grass which then she put into the horse's mouth little by little.

"Poor you, your master is not inhumane by sunbathing you like this, but ... you are a horse, not a human, so what is the right term to describe Andrew's cruelty?" Daniella spoke to Andrew's horse and spoke to herself at the same time.

"Hmmm, forget it, he's really insane, what can we expect from a person with mental illness? He killed his wife, so it seems like letting you roast in the sunburn is a little thing for him," continued the girl after being silent for a long time.

When the grass in her hand was eaten up by the horse, Daniella intended to uproot the other grass, but the closest grass to her is quite far from her, so she had to leave Andrew's horse.

However, when she had only walked a few steps, Daniella realized that there is someone with a tall and strapping body, a cold face, a cowboy hat, and with his two arms folded to his chest, standing near the horse. The man also gave Daniella a very cold gaze.

Yes, he is,

Andrew Lawrence.
