The year our company's cash flow dried up, we were hit with major economic crime charges. The night before my brother Ashford Peyton was set to go to prison, I took the company seal and disappeared without a trace. Twelve years later, he clawed his way back to the top and became the richest man in the country. In a financial interview, the host asked him what drove his success. His eyes were venomous, his face full of murderous intent. "Find that ungrateful rat who ran off with my money. I'm going to break his legs myself." He put up a bounty of 70 million and issued a global manhunt. Countless bounty hunters swarmed out. But none of them brought me back alive. They only brought back the suicide letter I had written in prison twelve years ago.
