Spy-x-War Showdown

How could someone become an elite in an industry and be a fool at the same time?

And how could Norbert, pegged as a rising star on Finance Street, be slow to react? Thus, as soon as Anton uttered those words, Norbert chose the path of self-preservation without hesitation.

Anton was unequivocal. He pointed to Heidi and said in a deep voice, "Kill her."

Norbert hesitated, then looked at Anton with an incredulous tone, "Kill her?"

"Yes."

Norbert glanced at Heidi, then shook his head and said, "No, no, I can’t do that."

Anton spread his hands and said, "It’s either her or you. Aren’t you going to reconsider?"

Sweat covered Norbert’s forehead. He looked at Heidi, who was so frightened she couldn’t make a sound, and said with a trembling voice, "I can’t do it."

With a benevolent expression, Anton coaxed, "She betrayed you. Even if you kill her, you don’t have to feel guilty. She’s seen everything. If you don’t kill her, then you’re finished."

Norbert took a couple of steps back and said, "No, I can’t, I can’t kill her..."

Anton sighed and then spoke softly, "You’ve always known Heidi doesn’t like you, right? She likes your money. Maybe you’re not particularly wealthy now, but you’re definitely going to be a celebrity in the financial world, which means you’re going to be very wealthy. But you’re so ugly. Look at yourself; you really are ugly. Even if you’re in an expensive suit and shoes worth thousands of Euros, you’re still ugly. First off, you’re fat, and then you... Forget it, you really are ugly. How can’t you see why your girlfriend approached you?"
