Elijah and Lance searched everywhere, finally finding the men in a secluded corner of the backyard,
engrossed in a card game. They were so absorbed that they did not even notice Elijah and Lance
approaching.
Sawyer eximed, “A pair of Queens!”
Lionel, triumphantly smashing two cards on the table, dered, “I’ve got a pair of Aces! Bet you didn’t
see thating!”
Infuriated, Sawyer retorted, “Damn! You sneaky guy!”
Elijah and Lance were left speechless to find the guys ying cards here.
If Sheena were to find out about this, their sry would surely be deducted.
Oblivious to such concerns, Lance eagerly approached and said, “Need an extra yer? Count me
in!”
“Lionel, quit ying,” Elijah said and walked toward the trees in the front yard.
Excited, Lance took over Lionel’s spot.
Lionel reluctantly handed over the cards and followed Elijah.
Once they were sure the card game squad could not hear their conversation, Elijah, with a stern
expression, whispered, “How did you handle the task I assigned youst time?”
Habitually scanning the surroundings, Lionel leaned in and said in a low voice, “Rest assured, I caused
some trouble with the Special Investigation Department in your name. Nathaniel will likely leave Farlem
within three days and shouldn’t be returning to Farlem anytime soon.”
“Good.” Elijah acknowledged, then remembered the new guard, Ian, who joined today. “Check on that

someone to watch out for.”
Recalling that Sheena had taken Ian out today, he hurriedly added, “Get the information quickly.”

received a call from Nathaniel.
Answering with an exceptionally cold tone, she asked, “Mr. Nicholls, was my message not clear enough
Nathaniel hesitated and sighed softly, “Nana, there’s an issue with the Special Investigation
Department, and I must leave Farlem. I don’t know when we’ll meet again.”
Sheena remained unbothered, saying, “Workes first.”
Nathaniel sighed again, his tone heavy. “Nana, you’re too heartless. Even if we can’t be lovers,

out for onest gathering tonight. Can’t you consider this a favor for me?
Sheena fell into silence. She thought something felt off about Nathaniel’s behavior this time. It was too
peculiar and unpredictable. If she did not ept his invitation, how could she know what he was up
to?
“Alright, where?”
“Eros Bar.”
After a moment’s thought, Nathaniel added, “Just the three of us, old friends. Leave your little pet at
home this time.”
“Okay.”
After ending the call, Sheena pondered for a long time, systematically analyzing recent events. Then,
she decided to summon Paul and Ian.
“I have a gathering tonight and don’t need too many people with me. Ian, you’ll be apanying me.
Paul, you can head back to the mansion for now.”
