After he left the meeting, James went out to the garden and just sat down looking up to the sky.
This whole thing was just too much and still just the beginning of everything, but the thing that weighed him down the most was the responsibility for his employees. Like, a thousand people work for him and he needed to do something to be able to protect them, but he knew that would be impossible to protect everybody in the family and some of them will eventually die or get kidnapped for information and will get brutally tortured… he knew it very well because that's how it is, world, that's how the cartel works. If they want something, they are going to grab it.
And that was the most important thing for him, if they started snatching away members of this family, the whole structure could just crumble even more. The people came for him for hope, but now that hope is changed into survival and fight for their life.
It wasn't the chill family that they once joined.
