Bab 643: Not paid enough [2/2]

"It's a common story after the 30th floor. I served as defender and manager. I did my job well. One day a vampire came and tried to bribe me with a deal. I killed the messenger. Sometime later, a bunch of reapers ambushed Abigail and me in the sun."

When he got to this part of the story, I could hear the sound of George grinding his teeth in anger. 

"The bastards knew our schedule. They deliberately attacked us on the one day Abby and I were separated. The anniversary of our daughter's death. I didn't know who had taken her. One day a letter arrived on my doorstep. It said that my {Kindred} had been kidnapped by the manager of the 32nd floor to blackmail me into doing something.

"We investigated and found it to be true. When we confirmed that my wife was being held hostage, I stormed in and killed everyone there and got her back. All the while, the defenders on the 32nd floor said it was a mistake. But in my rage, I didn't listen to anyone.
