"Boss, the mansion is ready." A trusted aide revealed with a bow as soon as he stepped into Xavier's office, mansion keys in his hand.Immediately, Xavier checked his wristwatch, and he discovered that there were three and a half hours left before he closed off work, but...Upon sweeping a faint gaze at the almost completed documents lying on the table, Xavier decided at that moment that dumping work at this time didn't matter.After all, he's almost done working on the documents. Moreover, Xavier hadn't heard from Michael since he left home that morning, and he really missed Michael."En," Xavier responded without lifting his head from his laptop. His fingers quickly typed on the keyboard in a bid to save his files, power off, and shut his laptop.It was after a while that Xavier was done packing his things up. Xavier wore his unique mask, picked up his suitcase, and collected the mansion key from his trusted aide before walking out of the office.The instant Xavier got into his car,

The cold aura oozing out of Xavier almost made Michael shrink into the car seat.There are still two hours left before Xavier's normal time; how come Xavier knew Michael was missing? Did Xavier arrive early, or was there a bodyguard tracing him that Michael didn't know about?Even if Michael tried to stay calm, he couldn't! Xavier had caught Michael in such an ambiguous position with another man who wouldn't be annoyed?The only reason one's partner won't be annoyed is if they don't have love in their relationship, but they do! Besides, Xavier is a person who likes eating vinegar!Michael silently and fearfully gulped down the saliva forming in his mouth.He took a glance at Xavier's cold and dark face, and he quickly looked away before he was caught watching by the driving man.Michael clenched his shirt in nervousness and fearfully stretched his hand toward Xavier. "Xav, I...""Quiet!" Xavier's indignant voice sounded like thunder in Michael's ears.Michael jumped slightly, and he s

Xavier stared into space with furrowed brows and glazed eyes.Different chaotic thoughts ran through his mind, especially after recalling last night's event.No matter how much Xavier tried to decipher things, he couldn't understand yesterday's happening, and he deduced that he wouldn't be able to find information on it, no matter how much he investigated.Last night, the four firmly promised that they'd never expose Michael to the risk of the underworld.Although the five were working together, they only seemed to involve Michael in businesses that had less or no risk.Even though Michael was the oldest, they all seemed to protect him the most.No matter how Xavier tried to decipher things, everything was perplexing.Does that mean something was wrong somewhere? Especially with Michael. No wonder…Xavier's brows became constricted, and he paused.Xavier closed his eyes to calm his chaotic thoughts.In the next second, Xavier's eyes were extremely calm, clear, and blank.Xavier stood

"Young master, our source had just sent a report: Hion had left Grail State." A guard explained in a low voice while standing behind Prothero. He was in casual blue jeans and a t-shirt to avoid Simon's attention or suspicion. The guard bowed his head slightly. "Should I prepare for the young master's return? Don will be checking the young master's progress overmorrow…"The guard was yet to complete his words when Simon began to approach Prothero with a ticket in his hands.Prothero's eyes darkened. Different thoughts kept running through his mind, but none of them were displayed on his face. Prothero raised his hand silently, and the guard quietly withdrew.The guard's lips parted in hesitation, but he suppressed it all and quickly withdrew, just like Prothero had ordered.Simon stared at the ticket he had just bought and slowly exhaled a distressed sigh. His young master title had gone with the wind, and now he had turned into a nanny, big brother, or daddy, whatever it was.to think

Craig jumped up and gnashed his teeth in anger. He directed a sharp glare at Hayden, who had just slammed the door shut, and began to storm down the stairs with a crazy look on his face. Craig shot a cold glare at Hayden. "Damn! Hayden, you killer…""I'm going to cook." Hayden interrupted him coldly and began to make his way toward the kitchen. His expression was chilling to the bone; his body was tall and straight, and his aura was filled with aggression.Prothero took a glance at Hayden before his gaze fell on Simon again. Thinking about how much he had troubled Simon all these days with Simon not saying anything, he felt that Simon was really cute. Hayden was really a cold person. Thankfully, Hayden wasn't Simon.The eyes of Caleb, Mason, Craig, Philip, and Simon popped out in shock. They couldn't help but shiver slightly. Hayden, whose mood had gone haywire, had just announced that he would cook. At this rate, are they sure they won't die?"Sure you're not going to the kitchen to
