Maximilian Thorn: clutches your stolen credit card W-we need to catch this scoundrel. This... this proves they’re targeting you.
Max gazes at the stolen credit card, his mind working furiously.
"We need to track down the criminal. They'll likely try to use this card soon. We have to be ready to follow their trail."
I looked at my partner's face & our shared eyes widened as we were shocked to see me being targeted.
Max’s gaze locks onto yours, his expression a mix of concern and determination.
grits teeth This is serious. Whoever is behind this isn’t just targeting you, they’re after your identity.
"I'll be careful." I promised.
Maximilian Thorn’s gaze softened slightly, but he still seemed concerned.
"Promise me you’ll be careful," he said, his voice firm yet laced with worry. "These criminals won’t hesitate to hurt you if they think it’ll get them what they want."
I nod. "Yes, we do." I look at him seriously. "But how?"
Maximilian's gaze darkens as he considers their options.
"We need to think like the criminal," he says, folding his arms. "They're targeting you specifically, which means they must have a grudge against you. We need to find out who they are and why they're after you."
"Damn it! I knew my identity would get leaked eventually..." runs a hand through their hair frustratedly
Maximilian glances at you with a hint of concern. He notices your frustration and tries to reassure you.
"Your identity will remain safe. We'll track down this thief and retrieve your stolen belongings."
I have sun-kissed skin with long flowing dyed grey hair, bright green eyes, very beautiful and thick in all the right places. "I know I am targeted because of my wealth."
notices your features, but remains composed Indeed, you are a woman of great beauty and means. Your wealth has made you a target for those who seek to exploit your riches. But you can trust me to keep you safe and catch these criminals.
"i see..my identity has been stolen." I look worried. "what else has been stolen?"
His eyes scan the area, assessing the situation
Your identity is the primary concern at the moment. They’ve stolen your credit card information, which could lead to further fraudulent activities. It’s essential we act swiftly to contain this situation.
He checks his pocket watch, noting the time
We should pay a visit to your bank and alert them immediately. They can freeze your accounts and prevent any unauthorized transactions.
I felt my face heat up. "yeah..." I said softly.
Max noticed your flushed cheeks and raised an eyebrow, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.
"Are you alright? You're blushing," he said, his voice laced with amusement.
I take my ID back from him. Thanks for trying though. I really do appreciate it.
Maximilian Thorn looks at you with a mixture of disappointment and concern.
His expression turns serious No, we can't give up now. This isn't just about me or you, it's about justice. They're going after you specifically, and we need to find out why.
I looked at him. "How so?"
Thorn looks at you with a serious expression.
This credit card is stolen under your name. It means this criminal is targeting you specifically. They're trying to cause you financial harm, possibly more.
"how did you even get my card?" I raised an eyebrow.
Maximilian held up the stolen credit card, his gaze fixed on you.
"I found it on the scene of a recent crime. It seems the thief was careless enough to leave a trail behind."
He pocketed the card and looked at you intently.
"But that's not important right now. We need to focus on catching this criminal and figuring out their motives."
"I'm not sure who's after me but I know where they're hiding." she says.
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Where?
"I'll take care of my stuff later. Let's focus on finding the person who did this."
nods firmly
Of course, my apologies. We must stay focused.
He continues to scan the area, searching for any sign of the culprit.
Any idea who might be behind this? Do you have any enemies?
"Oh my god! I thought my identity was safe!" she looks at her partner. "I'm so sorry this happened."
he looks at you with concern
No apologies needed, my dear. We'll catch this scoundrel and recover your credit card.
He glances at the stolen card
This is a calculated move to target you specifically. We mustn't underestimate their determination.
" I feel like I've seen him before, but where...?" I tried to reach my memory.
Maximilian studies your face, trying to decipher the look in your eyes. He tilts his head slightly as if trying to find the answer.
"Have you ever seen him at a social gathering or a club?" he asks.
"I know..." I said looking at my wallet and saw another card missing. "It seems like whoever stole from me knows what I have."
Maximilian’s expression darkened as he noticed another card missing from your wallet. He clenched his jaw, clearly frustrated by the situation.
"Looks like we’re dealing with a more calculating thief than I initially thought," he muttered. "They’re not just after your money, but seem to have a specific target in mind."
"I've been getting targeted since I was 3 years old.. I'm used to it by now." She sighed, feeling defeated.
Maximilian's expression softened as he saw the defeated look on your face. He knew the impact that years of being targeted could have on someone.
I can't imagine what it's like to be targeted since you were three... he thought to himself.
But he couldn't show weakness now.
"Listen," he said, his voice firm yet gentle. "We will catch this person. I won't let them hurt you anymore."
"I've got a few ideas of who might be doing this..." I say, feeling nervous.
raises an eyebrow Oh? Do tell. Any leads on who might be behind this sinister plot?
"I wonder who would want to target me?" I said.
Max gazes at you, his eyes narrowing in suspicion.
Perhaps someone from your past? Or a rival who wants to discredit you? We'll have to investigate and find out.
