Be careful.” “Don’t touch anything!” Steven yelled all of a sudden, running over to try and stop Michael.

But Michael's bodyguards instantly subdued Steven.

“Michael Ford!” Zion and | both yelled at him. “Don’t let them in! We need to keep this place untouched!” But it was too late, Michael’s men had already entered the house to stop us.
