“Then I’ll ask the driver to send you back.”

“Well… ALL right.” Joey gulped down the words “no thanks.” If he continued to decline, Lukas would be suspicious.

Soon after, Lukas asked a driver to send Joey home.

He sat in the back seat, staring out the window.

Lukas was standing in front of the steps, looking at him lovingly and intimately.

The servant behind him was holding Katie.

The Maybach soon began and drove away.

Joey noticed in the rearview mirror that the figures of Lukas and

Katie were getting smaller and smaller until they vanished around the turn.

“Sir, please take me to Time Cloud Hotel,” he said.

“Okay,” the driver responded.

Joey glanced at his watch, opened his address book, and dialed the second number on the list.

“Sorry, but the number you dialed has not yet been answered.

Please call again later.” Through the earphone, an authoritative pleasant voice came through.

Joey frowned and lowered his gaze to the caller ID on the watch screen-Quintin.

He called him once more.

However, the same voice soon returned.

It was the fifth phone call to Quintin since this morning, but no one answered.

Quintin had a set biological clock and awoke at approximately half past seven every morning.

He should be able to pick up the phone.

Joey’s left eyelid twitched unexpectedly.

As the saying went, when one’s left eye twitched, it represented calamity, and when one’s right eye twitched, it meant prosperity.

He stroked his left eyelid with his hand.

He was worried that something horrible might happen.

But what could possibly go wrong?

‘Did Mommy know I come to Apliaria? No, it was not possible.

Mommy will be returning to the

alliance in at least half a month.

I must have returned by that time.

Besides, even if Mommy returned ahead of schedule, Uncle Quintin would undoubtedly inform me of that.’

Joey made that guess, but he still felt uneasy.

Sullivan Group was in a shambles while Joey felt uneasy.

It was a bright day outside, but the Sullivan Group building was shrouded in gloom.

The atmosphere became odd and uncomfortable.

Everyone was hurrying along, appearing unhappy, and whispering something.

The elevator came to a halt in front of the conference room on the twenty-third floor.

Seven or eight people emerged one by one and proceeded to the meeting room.

They were all stakeholders of Sullivan

Group.

In less than five minutes, the conference room, which could seat twenty people, was filled with people wearing various expressions.

“A car accident occurred in Ustyas at 10:23 this morning.

Four people died, one was critically injured and is in a coma, and they are all from our country.

According to reports, Odin Sullivan is one of the four dead people.

Our embassy personnel is getting information from the Ustyas police, who are investigating the case.” A report was shown on the TV located at the front of the meeting room.
