He was a king, which our town citizens titled him
before his death. I was a Princess to him and I and my brother are the
only people who can take Care of his wealth now because my mother is not

HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND US DOLLARS) with a security firm,
and I don't know how and what I will do to invest this money somewhere in

that by the grace of God, you will help me secure and
invest this money. I thereby need your help in bringing the box contaning
the money
out from the security company, based on your reply I will furnish
you with more details on how we can proceed.
