    In the evening.


    Hendrix came back, looking incredibly tired. My guess was that he was drunk the entire night.


    | was neck deep in my pool of thoughts when he walked into the living room. He ced the keys down then approached me to


    give me a hug. He murmured softly, "Why didn''t you call me?”


    | was surprised to hear that, and | looked back at him. My gazended on the stubble he had. He hadn''t been shaving. "| was


    worried that you''re busy. | didn''t want to disturb you.”


    He tucked his head on my shoulder, "Nothing is more important than you."


    "What''s for dinner?" He asked while looking around the living room, "Where''s Anne?"


    "She''s sleeping in the bedroom. She had a fever this morning." | pondered about asking him about Irvin.


    He nodded and held me in his arms. "Josiah stopped by?"


    | mumbled a ''yes''. After a moment of silence, | raised my head and looked up at him, "I saw the news this morning. The Roberts


    Group purchased a lot of Fantasia''s shares. Is thepany nning to expand into Artificial Intelligence?"


    | was beating around the bush. However, this man was too smart and observant to not know what | was trying to ask.


    Hendrix''s face turned dark immediately. "Who called you?"

    Looking at my fingertips, | fell silent and exhaled lightly, "Okay, just don''t overwork yourself.”


    He got up and grunted in agreement, "| have something to handle. I''m going to the study to finish it. I''ll be downter to keep you

    | had no idea what the other person said, but the tip of his pen was pressed so hard against the contractid out in front of him


    that the ink made a blot on the piece of paper.


    His eyes darkened, and he noticed that he had been exerting too much force. However, he didn''t stop.


    Instead, he held his pen even tighter, pressing it against the contract even harder. "Are you done?" Obviously, he was ina


    terrible mood.


    Of course, the person on the other end took notice of the change in his mood but | gathered that they still continued talking.


    Hendrix lowered his voice and asked, "How am | friends with him? You don''t know anything about business."
