HEARTLESS
Original Character Design by WMDBASSPLAYER; Story by The Atomic Punk
“How do I know that is Richard Matteson? It could be anyone’s skull. And why is it so clean?â€
“Mister Price, believe me, your rival is dead. I had so much fun that almost feel guilty for charging you.â€
“I need more proof. You think that I am going to hand over six million dollars just on your word. What’s with the creepy white make-up, anyway?â€
“Mister Price, please don’t change the subject. I ‘executed’ my part quite well.â€
“I don’t know how I let Revis talk me into hiring an assassin. This is so sundry.â€
“Your friend in the police department will be calling you soon. He will inform you of details of the investigation. He will mention a crib. Please try to act surprised.â€
“Hello, Alex Price speaking. Yes, Lieutenant, how are you this morning? What? Richard Matteson was murdered last night? Why, that’s terrible! In his own home? He has round-the-clock security. Four guards were found dead as well?!?
“This will undoubtedly shock the pharmaceutical industry. Yes, I promise not to talk about the details of an ongoing investigation. Decapitated? Found where? In the baby’s room?!? In the crib next to his infant daughter?!?!? No, I don’t want to hear anymore. I will see you soon.â€
“Mister Price, I shot him in the head as you requested. After I had removed it from his neck. Mister Price… my money. Thank you.â€
“I hope to never see you again, you heartless…â€
“Of course, Mister Price. Please respect our confidentiality and you never will.â€
