작가: Sequora
Uma smiled and turned and gestured at the chair. "We've met a few times, but I can't say we're that close. Please sit."

Alison sat across from her, studying Uma's face before reeling in shock.

"You look so much like her…" Alison blurted, but she soon came to her senses. "Also, what did you mean by 'help Renee'?"

Uma shook her head, clearly intent on keeping her in suspense. "Let's eat. Then, we'll talk."

Since she put it that way, Alison had no choice but to dine with her for the time being.

Even when they paused on occasion to chat, it was only about work.

Still, it was a friendly chat, and it was not until they were finally finished when Alison spoke. "Ms. Sands, surely it's a good time now?"

"Hehe. I can see that you really care a lot about her…"

Uma wiped her mouth with a tissue and said, "Actually, Renee is my sister."

"Bleurgh!"

Alison was just sipping her wine and almost choked.

As she quickly wiped her mouth with a tissue too and gaped at Uma in disbelief, she ask

    Luke was staring at Nora in bemusement too, muttering under his breath, "Beats me. She may be Mr. Zeller's mentor, but it's been years since they've met. Heck, when he learned that she's in Markistan, he almost made sure to travel there a couple of times per year to ask for her forgiveness."Sighing, he finished, "And here I thought she'd never forgive him… But here she is, showing up out of the blue.""Yeah, I think so too." Simon crossed his arms, but soon scratched his head. "Hey, don't you think Ms. Lowe has something to do with Ms. Whitley's disappearance? I mean, it's been years since she and the boss last met, and to suddenly show up at this time…"Smack!Luke smacked Simon on the head as he finished, rolling his eyes. "What's the matter with you? Are you even a carbon-based lifeform? The boss owes Ms. Lowe plenty and probably wouldn't be alive if not for her. Also, she has no connection with Ms. Whitley—why would you even connect her to that? Your stupidity is really beyond

    There was a lot of ground to cover, and they couldn't really reach here soon enough."Shut up and start searching," Jasper growled, his only thought was to confirm that Renee and everyone else was safe.Bzzt!That was when Simon's walkie-talkie warbled, and one of their men reported, "Sir! We've reached the bottom, and it really is Conrad's car. Both him and his chauffeur are injured and unconscious, but there's no sign of Ms. Whitley!""Are you sure?!" Simon blurted, turning in disbelief toward Jasper for orders.Jasper strode up and took the walkie-talkie, barking, "Search the area around it. Don't let anything slip."Throwing the walkie-talkie back to Simon, he held on to the rope tied to the handrail and slowly rappelled down the ravine.Luke remained worried, "Boss, it's dangerous! Let me go instead!"It was freezing outside, and snow was filling the air and covered the surface of the ground. But with the cliff on the bridge, one couldn't easily see what was happening do

    After thinking about it repeatedly, Jasper called Gio, who answered after just a few beeps."Gio?" Jasper called out.Before he could make his point, a frail voice rasped, "My friend… Did you call just to laugh at me?"Jasper frowned at the raspy voice. "What's wrong?"Gio sighed. "What's wrong? It's all thanks to you hurting my boys, and I ended up getting punished when I got back… Well, I lost this one. You're way too smart for me, and I guess this friendship wasn't meant to be.""Guess you're not that hurt if you can joke about it," Jasper replied, deducing from Gio's mood that Renee's disappearance had nothing to do with Don Kalon.If the don managed to nab Renee, why would Gio get punished?After a brief exchange, he hung up when Luke came up to him. "Are we sure it's not the don? Couldn't Gio be misleading you?""It would be completely unnecessary," Jasper replied, shaking his head.He was well aware that the mob's strength was far above his, and they definitely didn't n

    When Mark opened his eyes and found himself staring at Jasper's sinister glare, however, all he felt was a chill running down his spine.His mind blanked out for a second, but he soon came to his senses. "W-What do you want?! I'm warning you, Don Kalon is my—oof!"Jasper had punched him in the face before Mark could finish, demanding, "Where did you hide Renee?!"The punch left Mark's cheek swelling instantly, and he was tasting blood while feeling a couple teeth loosened."Argh! What the hell!? When did I hide Renee?!" He glared at Jasper in turn. "Would you be able to drag me around if I still had her?!"Just as Jasper had expected, Mark didn't know that Renee had gone missing, but Jasper seized his collar nonetheless. "I'm asking you only once—what deal did you cut with Don Kalon?""I… What deal? I don't know what you're talking about," Mark blurted as he avoided Jasper's eyes guiltily.It was clearly a secret deal that couldn't be known to anyone other than the two of them.

    While everyone's expressions darkened, Jasper promptly pressed, "Renee's not back yet?""N-No…" The henchman shook his head.Jasper wheeled on Luke right then. "What is going on here?!"But Luke was just as confused, and he whipped out his phone to make a call. "This can't be… Conrad left with Ms. Whitley. Could they have been intercepted?"They had planned thoroughly for tonight—Jasper would attend the dinner with Mark and the others, forcing Mark to make his move.After that, they would also make their move and corner Mark, forcing out whoever was backing him.Renee would pretend to be drugged and go upstairs, while Conrad—who was already waiting in ambush—would take down Yvie and leave with Renee through the backdoor.Conrad had always been reliable, so none of them could have expected this.Even now, as Jasper kept calling his number, it remained unanswered.As more attempts failed, he glowered as he turned to Luke. "Which route did Conrad take? They definitely ran into tr

    The crack of gunshots was endless and violent, but it was drowned out as the New Year's fireworks thundered nearby, with no one catching on.Still, anyone on the roof of the manor would have been able to see the sparks and muzzle flashes, as bullets rained across the bottom floor.But amid the raging winds overhead, two helicopters were streaking toward the roof, where over a dozen bodyguards stood watch, guarding Jasper with their lives.As the helicopters approached, the rotors pelted everyone's faces directly with a cool gust of wind.Once they touched down, Jasper loaded Mark—bound and gagged—on one and closed the door.Seeing Luke sitting opposite him, he asked, "Where's Renee?""We got her out safely, sir. Don't worry."Jasper's racing heart eased at that.All this while, both him and Renee were on the backfoot. Even after doing everything they could to uncover Mark's puppeteer, they failed.That was why Jasper had risked his own skin and came to Mark's manor, and fortun
