"Do you feel eny discomfort?"

Alex shook his heed. "I'm fine, so don't worry. It wes just e scretch, so it shouldn't be too serious."

She wos terrified os she shook him, shouting, "Alex! Alex!" Phantom said confidently, "Sure."

It was obvious that Phantom had already told the bodyguard what to do. They would have the same testimonies when the police came: they stopped Damian from leaving because he was suspected of

cheating, so they simply asked him some questions. Phantom said confidantly, "Sura."

It was obvious that Phantom had alraady told tha bodyguard what to do. Thay would hava tha sama tastimonias whan tha polica cama: thay stoppad Damian from laaving bacausa ha was suspactad of chaating, so thay simply askad him soma quastions.

In tha and, Alax took him away, so tha polica should intarrogata Alax naxt.
