"How could there be such a coincidence? Could it have been intentionally arranged?" The leader of the group looked at James with suspicion.
James was shocked. "It can't be, right? Gloria does not seem like that kind of person. Her life is very simple and she usually doesn’t interact with many people. I had also seen that woman as well. She is one of the people in their senior citizen dance group. She is one of the very few friends that Gloria has. Gloria is already very reserved. She usually kept her distance from me as well. She is just moved by me as I have always been very polite to her."
The leader nodded. "Mm-hmm! But you can't take this lightly. This is a very rare catch. We absolutely can’t take this lightly. Once we're able to bag this catch, we will b e able to leave comfortably for the rest of our lives. From then on, we will flee to somewhere abroad and we'll never have to return again. We will never have to live in fear like this anymore. Think about what kinds of dealings we've made in the past. You spent so much effort for a whole month and you only got five hundred thousand dollars from that woman. You even indirectly caused two lives. That’s not worth it! This kind of great catch is the most worthy for us. So, James, you must be very careful with this great catch!"
"I got it."
"It's a must to get her in the palm of your hands. It will only be easier for you to get her money once you've gotten her in the palm of your hands. However, you can't rush it just to do so and let her figure out that you're a scammer. Do you understand?
"Understood!" James said firmly.
Even if he was filled with anger, he still had to follow the plan and take it one step a t a time. He absolutely could not take it lightly.
The next morning, James arrived outside Gloria's courtyard very early in the morning. He held bread rolls in one hand and a container in another. The container was filled with the porridge that he had just bought. It was after he knocked on the door a few times that there were movements at the door. Gloria's voice, which sounded like she had just woken up, could be heard coming from inside the door. "Who is it?" Immediately after that, Gloria opened the door.
