"Wake up." Major Ivan stated as he turned on the room light.

George woke up and opened his eyes; as he looked out the window, he could see that the sun had not risen yet.

"Gavno..." Drago cursed as he woke up with his face still swollen, "What time is it now, American? I still haven't seen the sun... Is it even time to wake up?" He asked while looking at the Major with an annoyed-looking face.

"It's 6, we need to leave now." Major Ivan said while getting out of the room.

George immediately put on his shirt while Drago got back to sleep.

As Arthur got out of the room, he could see the only picture that was in the house; it was the picture of the Major with a woman beside him, "Major, who is this?" He asked.

Major looked at the picture before looking down at his breakfast and eating the bacon, "It's my wife..." He replied while crunching on the bacon.

"Hmm, well you must be happy," George said while looking at the picture of the smiling Major and his wife.

"I was." The Major replied, "My wife, she has cancer. The doctor says that she will need a very costly treatment. About 2 million dollars, but even then, she only has about 3 years left." He continued.

Upon hearing this, George cursed at himself internally for bringing up such a painful feeling to the Major, "I'm sorry Major." He said while looking him in the eye.

"It's fine. And it's thanks to you, that I now have more money to give her the best treatment. And for the 3 years, she has, I wish to give her the best moment of her life, probably a three-year vacation in Hawaii." Major replied as he forced himself not to cry. "Anyways, you better eat, there are still a lot of burgers left from yesterday." The Major continued while pointing to the bag of burgers that Drago bought yesterday.

As the three of them exited the house, a cheap white color sedan car with a yellow stain was in front of the house.

"What the hell is that of shit?" Drago said while pointing at the car.

"It's a car I rented from the dark web. The license plate is fake, and there will be no record of us ever using this car." Major Ivan said while taking out the key that was hidden on the tires.

The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

"Was this the only car that you can choose? With the amount of money we have, we should be able to rent a nice Ford." Drago said while looking at the car with disgust.

The Major sighed while opening the door, "The last thing we want is eyes focused on our car. Now, are you getting in or what?" He asked, seemingly annoyed with the picky Russian.

The Russian shook his head as he entered the car with George.

"Welcome to John Dawson and Company, attorneys you can trust, how may I help you?" A lady at the reception counter said with an awkward smile and forehead sweating as she saw Major Ivan and George in their formal uniform and Drago, who was wearing a small T-shirt, emphasizing the size of his muscle.

"Yes, I would like to meet John Dawson." Major Ivan said while smiling, aware that the lady in front of him was intimidated by him.

"Uhm, do you have an appointment with him Sir?" She asked.

"No, but just tell him that Major Ivan wants to meet him." He said.

The lady raised one of her eyebrows before pressing a button on the phone, "Sir, Major Ivan wants to meet you." She said.

"What?! Just wait for me!" John Dawson is on the phone.

As he arrived at the reception center, he put on his clothes properly and buttoned his suit, "Major! It's been a long time. It's good to see you." He said with a smile.

"It's good to be seen." Major Ivan replied while looking at John Dawson's cheek, "And it seems you have now become perverted." He said while shaking his head.

John Dawson was confused upon hearing that, but his receptionist tapped his back, "Sir, there is a kiss mark on your cheek." She said while pointing at his cheek.

"Oh shoot!" John Dawson said while taking out his handkerchief and wiping it away.

"Jones became a pastor, Norris became a missionary, Jamal became an activist, and you, the most innocent guy in the team, becomes a playboy lawyer." Major Ivan said while smiling at John.

John laughed as he shook his head, "Stop joking sir, it's my wife. She visited me just now." He replied before looking at George and Drago. "And it seems you have brought two interesting guys with you." He continued.

"Yep. I need to talk to you. It's important." Major Ivan said as he turned his smile to a serious face.

John Dawson nodded, "Follow me." He said as he walked towards his office.

After George, Drago, and Major Ivan entered the office, John Dawson locked his door before sitting at the back of his cocobolo desk, "Please, sit." He said as he pointed them at the three chairs that were in front of his desk.

"I won't waste your time John, I know you're a busy man. But I have something that might earn you a lot of money. More money than you can ever think of." Major Ivan said before he got interrupted by John.

"Stop, if this is some government scheme, I'm kicking you out." John Dawson said as he laughed.

Major Ivan looked around the room before looking John in the eye, "Is this room bugged?" He asked.

John Dawson was caught off guard by the question and looked around the room, "No sir, I get this room checked every day, why?" He asked before sitting back down on his chair.

"I want you to launder money." Major Ivan said.

Upon hearing this, John fell from the chair and got back up, "Hahaha, sorry I thought you said something about laundering money. My ears are not working that well anymore." He said.

"You didn't hear wrong, John. I want you to launder money." Major Ivan said while making himself clear this time.
