“I’m afraid I’m not at liberty to disclose that.” X sat aloofly on the sofa, his gaze still on the alcohol. He would not touch or consume the food and drinks there. Trust did not come easily for X. He had been betrayed one too many times. Despite everything, X kept his composure, not letting anything get to him. “But I hired you. Since you can’t complete the job, you have an obligation to tell me why.” Morris was getting annoyed, taking X’s silence as defiance. “I’d advise you to quit while you’re at it.” So as not to waste time, X rose to his feet, ready to leave. He had done what he came for, anyway. “Hang on.” Morris could tell there was no talking sense into X, nor could he keep X from leaving. At first, Morris was going to hire him on a long-term basis. He would be getting himself a powerful ally if he agreed.“What? Is there something else?” X had the mood to entertain Morris. Nevertheless, he would rather stay away if it concerned the assassination. “I

Morris would have to make a choice. Though things might not turn out well, he had to follow through. “I’ll see what I can do, but the golf course is sitting on a nice piece of land. It’s profitable if it can be used for golf or recreational purposes.” Miles did not have the heart to pull the plug on the golf course. “Out with the old, and in with the new. Don’t worry about it. The golf course will be back in my possession so long as I stay in power within the organization,” Morris uttered confidently, putting faith in his competence. “Master Siegfried, I have footed the medical bill for our crew, but some of them are leaving us. Should we offer them compensation?” Though it was not Miles’ place to ask, he ran out of money. He needed Morris to allocate some funds to him. These men had been through thick and thin with Miles. Now that they were injured on the job, it was only right for Miles to provide some form of compensation. They still needed to make a living. Morris

During the long wait, everybody returned to their seats. The seat right in the middle of the first row was left vacant. It was no secret that the seat belonged to Edmund. Most came to the reception to get to know Edmund; too bad the VIP tended to arrive fashionably late. Nevertheless, it would be an honor just to have a quick chat with Edmund. Morris knew that he should not have come. However, there he was. He said nothing about the snub, thinking he could handle the heat. He could ignore the hostile looks. However, the struggle was real now that he was at the scene. He looked at the empty seat next to him, his heart in his throat. Edmund would never miss out on a chance to insult Morris, which put Morris on edge. Still, Morris had to plant his bottom firmly on the chair, or this would be the last of the Siegfrieds. He must seize the opportunity. Feeling down, Morris looked to where a host took the stage.The host sure knew how to work the crowd, sparking laught

Clarice was only looking out for Kaze. She never looked down on Kaze because of where he came from, only liking him for who he was. It was a shame that Kaze never let his feelings be known, and Clarice felt uncertain.Thanks to one lady, Clarice figured something out. Nothing else mattered so long as two people were in love. Everything was worth giving the relationship a shot. “I have something to tell you after the event.” Clarice wanted to profess her feelings to Kaze, and she could not wait a minute longer. Kaze furrowed his brows, feeling thrown off. He had a hunch about what Clarice wanted to say, but there was no way he could reciprocate her feelings. It was a dilemma. Alas, a smart girl like Clarice did not seem to get it. Her confession would only drive them apart. Kaze could not respond to her feelings or provide any help. The only thing he could do was walk away. He did not want to give the wrong idea, so she needed to understand the reality of the situ

For these socialites, their attire was their armor. Appearance meant everything to them. Clarice, the ugly duckling, had suddenly turned into a beautiful swan. It was not a change that the socialites could accept or tolerate. Livid, they were tempted to put Clarice in her place. When their eyes fell on Kaze, jealousy consumed them. Clarice somehow got all the best that life had to offer. Kaze was not the most gorgeous man, but his looks were the type to grow on anyone. The black suit fitted Kaze’s tall frame perfectly, giving him an added touch of sophistication.That was the very thing the socialites would die for. Their entire existence had been dedicated to finding a good man to marry. By landing Mr. Right, these socialites would see their hard work pay off and bring honor to the family.It would be the fruit of their long-standing labor. They had been working toward their goal. Yet, Clarice seemed to have everything fall into her lap without even trying. The
