Chapter 65


    I watched him walk away, puzzled, and turned to Catherine. "Is he really Ronan''s cousin?"


    "Absolutely!" Catherine nodded confidently. "Guaranteed!"


    I shook my head, "He''s a chatterbox, not at all like his cousin Ronan."


    "You''re saying he isn''t reliable?" retorted Catherine. " Don''t underestimate him – he''s very reliable. And


    he''s quite a big deal in the industry. He isn''t just anyone''s for the taking. A real big shot that ordinary


    people can''t get a hold of!"


    "Really?"


    "Absolutely! His industry nickname is DragonLord!" Catherine said seriously, "You know what it means,


    right? He''s elusive, a real mystery just like a dragon. And in our field, you can''t do without him. He''s at


    the top, with countless minions below him, and there''s nothing he can''t figure out."


    Listening to Catherine, my eyes bulged out. I couldn''t help but think, how the hell am I going to pay


    him? I might escape this mess, but at the cost of my entire fortune.


    Catherine, as if seeing through my thoughts, chuckled. "Don''t worry, he''s offering friendly assistance to


    you."


    "Are you sure?" I looked at Catherine, joking, "From what you''re saying, I might go bankrupt!"


    Catherine burst intoughter, then teased me, "Don''t you have Ronan? What''s there to fear!"

    "Give me a break! Better not mention him, he''s unreliable!" I quickly changed the subject, "I have a task


    for you."


    "Go ahead! At your service."


    "Arrange a meeting, I want to see Marissa!"


    Catherine looked surprised, put away her yful expression and looked at me, "Really? What for?"


    "I want to get in touch, she''s an old subordinate after all!" I said with an ulterior motive, "Don''t worry, I''ll


    definitely meet her in a friendly manner."


    "You''re ying clueless, aren''t you?" Catherine got my point instantly.


    I looked at the picture of Marissa''s family in my hand, and gave her a faint smile, "You know me the


    best! I need to get her on board! Test them, see how strong their bond really is!"


    "Alright! Wait for my call!" Catherine patted my shoulder.


    I looked over the information Logan had brought once more, then handed it back to Catherine, "Keep


    this with you! It''s not safe with me."


    Catherine nodded, and put the documents in her bag.


    We ate something there, chatted for a while, and then left together through the back door. I had to get


    home before Zora returned.


    When I got home, Zora hadn''t returned yet. Iy on the couch, my mind filled with the image of


    Marissa''s happy family, and my own three children. I felt a bit lost.


    That kind of hatred, like a wildfire, eventually burning everything to ashes.


    But reason told me, I had to take back everything that was mine, make Jan fall from grace and never


    recover, and make all of them pay.


    Compared to them, Zora was just a pawn, a scout that Jan left in this house to monitor me. She was


    just overestimating herself.


    Just as I was deep in thought, Zora returned carrying a bag of groceries, looking much more rxed


    than when she had left.


    Looks like she had a good afternoon with that man, her blocked drain had been cleared, and she was


    glowing.


    "Didn''t you go out for a walk, ma''am?" Zora asked, seeing me lying on the couch, half-asleep.


    "No, toozy to move!" I replied listlessly.


    After putting away her groceries, Zora asked, "What would you like for dinner, ma''am?"


    I thought for a moment, then sat up. "Anything. I need to go out."


    "Oh? Where are you going?" she asked.


    I nced at her, and she realized she had overstepped. She gave an awkwardugh.


    I went upstairs to change, then took my car keys and left. As I was leaving, I told Zora, "I''m going to


    see Probert. I won''t be back for dinner."
