As Lary delivered the distressing news, Sherly's heart sank, and her worst fears were realized in an instant. How could she let her guard down? This man may be less ruthless and cunning than the people inside the underworld, but he is still cunning. Now that this has happened, all she can do is let that man be punished.

Whether it is severe or not, it doesn't matter. She won't let this matter go.

"Oh no, Keisley," she whispered, her voice trembling with shock and fear.

Sherly could tell a lot of changes in her. When she only has her best friend and her family in her life, she's not this emotional. However, right now, it is different. She had her own family to be called hers. Thus, her emotions are a little bit on edge.

George's jaw clenched with anger as he processed the extent of the attack. He immediately noticed Sherly's reaction and calmed himself down. He doesn't want to let Sherly be like this. "How could this happen?" he demanded, his voice laced with frustration. He thought t

    Sherly could hear the papers flipping in the background and the scratching sound of the pen and paper, and she knew that her father was still in his office. She took a deep breath and calmed herself. "Dad, are you busy?"The scratching sound of pen and paper stopped, and she heard her father answer, "I am busy, but if you ask for time, I have a lot to spare. So, what is it? Do you have a problem?"Sherly bit her lower lip first. "Dad, you need to come to the hospital right now. Someone attacked Keisley," she said, her voice thick with emotion."Wait, what? Keisley is in the hospital, and someone attacked him?" Sherly nodded her head even though her father couldn't see her. "Yes, Dad. I am not in front of the operating room. Keisley was stabbed in the hotel after his meeting with his client." "What the fuck!" Sherly shivered as she heard her father curse. This is the first time she has heard him say those words. It was as if it came out of his lips without noticing it. "I'll be there

    When Sherly finished the call, six people approached her, their heads bowed in a sign of respect as they acknowledged her presence. She recognized them immediately as George's people, their loyalty evident in their unwavering support.How did she know? Of course, it's not because she investigated the people around George but because of their respect. They respect their boss; thus, they must respect his lover as well.Before they could approach her, the red light above the operating room door turned green, signaling that the operation had just finished.

    As Hideous entered the hospital room, his heart heavy with concern for his son, he was met with an unsettling sight. Keisley lay alone in the hospital bed, his face marked with bruises that spoke of the violence he had endured.Hideous looked around to see if there's someone here, but none. No one was with Keisley right now. The person watching the floor told him that Sherly bought a dinner with George not too long ago, so he thought that Kyle was here at least. Anger boiled within Hideous as he took in the sight of his son's injuries, his fists clenching at his sides with pent-up frustration. He couldn't help but resent the person responsible for causing his son such pain.How dare they do this to him? He might have this silly little troublesome tongue, but it wasn't enough for them to do this. Looking at it, they must have no intention of letting him go. If it weren't for George's people watching over us in the dark, this might be something worse."It's my fault," Hideous muttered,

    "Um, guys?" Everyone, including George, looked at Sherly. "Do you guys think it was Joseph who did this?"Silence. George knew that it was indeed Joseph who did this, and he knew that Sherly was just asking her family, so he did not make a sound. He did not voice his opinion. After all, he knew the truth the moment he read it with Sherly when it was handed to her. As Sherly voiced her suspicions about Joseph possibly being behind the attack on Keisley, Hideous's expression shifted from confusion to contemplation. "Indeed, he is someone that could do that. However, even if it wasn't that impossible to be him, we can't just tell it is him. After all, we lack evidence of pinning this mess in him," Hideous answered.Hearing his father's words, Sherly nodded his head. It was expected. His father, even though he is his enemy, wouldn't just wrongly accuse someone. Even though he thought it was possible to be him.Kyle, on the other hand, turned to Sherly and inquired about the basis for h

She knew that her father was a lawyer before he became a part of the government. He did a lot of things that helped him earn the position he had today. Thus, she couldn't help but feel proud that he was her father.Beside her, George squeezed Sherly's hand in silent support, sharing in her sense of accomplishment. He saw her looking at her father in admiration. Then, a momentary memory flashed in her min

    As the group settled into their seats at the elegant restaurant, everyone looked around in a daze. Of course, this is the first time they have been in this kind of restaurant.

I have a feeling it was probably my eldest brother's doing." She then pointed her thumb to

The sooner the invitations are given to us, the better." He held George's hand and then said, "So, are you ready? There is no going back. If you go back, you will have a cut on your neck."George laughed softly. "You're really going to tell me that, Sherly?" He raised his eyebrows. "Shouldn't you be the one to be afraid?" h

    As they planned at night, their activities will start in the morning. Thus, as the morning sun rose gently over the cabin, the air was filled with the crisp scent of pine and the sounds of nature awakening.

After a hearty breakfast shared by both families with teasing and talking about various matters, Solace's brother, Harvey, suggested a fishing trip to the nearby river. Keisley and Kyle eagerly agreed, albeit with different approaches in mind. This is new for them, and they wanted to discover if they had a talent for it or none at all.

    As Sherly stepped out of the elevator onto George's floor, she couldn't help but overhear the hushed whispers of the newcomers behind her. This isn't that rare for her since her people inside the information center are always chatting about different information as well.
