    "Monitor her closely," Jared said. "As long as she doesn''t harm any of our men, just ignore her. I need you to orchestrate a ploy to keep the


    McCarthys held up in the country, so that we can temporarily sever their connection with their allies from abroad.


    "And also, I need you to find out who she has been getting support from. We have to start from the roots," Jared added as he gave Max a


    solemn re.


    "Yes, sir," Max replied.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Have you gotten any updates regarding Henry?" Jared looked at Max.


    "The head of his security detail is nning to leave, but Henry won''t be following him. For the time being, he is staying back with only a few


    bodyguards," Max reported.


    "A good opportunity indeed. Bring him back now," Jared ordered.


    "Yes, sir."


    "That''s all for now. You may leave."


    Max left the office, and Jared proceeded to glean information about the man who had contacted Nicolest night.


    Suddenly, another person opened the door to Jared''s office, revealing Fiore behind it.


    "Long time no see, Mr. Johnston." Fiore smiled.


    "Miss Fisher, are you here because you miss my coffee or something?" Jared teased.


    "Yeah, everyone misses your coffee, Mr. Johnston." Fiore took a seat across from Jared.


    Jared smiled and the secretary strutted in with some coffee, as she knew Fiore''s character. She would demand coffee whenever she


    visited, so the assistant proceeded to serve her coffee without her asking this time.


    Nicole looked at the assistant and smiled as she said, "You''re getting smarter." 1


    In response, the assistant served her the coffee and left politely.


    "What are you busy with, Mr. Johnston?" Fiore asked.


    Jared quickly turned hisputer off and said, "What else? Just the never- ending pile of documents."


    "Mr. Johnston, you''re going to wear yourself out if you do everything by yourself. Why don''t you hire a trustworthy subordinate and take care


    of yourself? Don''t just work for the money. There''s little meaning to life if that’s what you''re going to be doing all day, don''t you think?" Fiore


    said before taking a sip of the coffee.


    "That''s the ideal scenario, Miss Fisher, but everyone ys a different role in society, and not everyone can live a life like that." Jared


    expressed his resignation to his position in society.


    "Not everyone can, and that includes me," he finished.


    "Though they can''t, I think that shouldn''t be an issue for you, Mr. Johnston." Fiore looked at him.


    "You''re ttering me," Jared said and proceeded to look at a document.


    "There''s a party tonight. Would you like to enjoy it with me?" Fiore arched her brows as she looked at Jared, hoping that he would ept


    her invitation.


    "No thanks. ces like that don''t suit me. I feel morefortable in the office." Jared declined.


    "That''s a shame. It''ll be nice if you can join," Fiore said with an obvious hint of disappointment in her voice.


    "You have friends, so why are you fussing over not having apanion?" Jared casually asked.


    "What''s the point of going with them?" she argued. "By the way, I heard that Miss Riddle is back. Why am I not seeing her with you?"


    Fiore brought Nicole up and began to observe Jared''s eyes, attempting to assess the state of their rtionship.
