Noticing Evelyn was awake, Leon turned toward his wife. Evelyn looked at him with a tense expression.

“What’s wrong?” Evelyn asked.

“Our old house. Someone set it on fire early this morning,” Leon replied.

Evelyn frowned, confused. She sat up. “What do you mean?”

Leon didn’t answer immediately. He typed a fairly long reply chat message. Only after that did he look at Evelyn again.

“I was just informed by my friend that our old house was found partially burned this morning. They are still trying to find out who the perpetrator is,” Leon said.

Evelyn still looked at Leon confused. The information Leon conveyed to her was clear enough. She could even imagine their old house now partially scorched. But, did this mean Leon hadn't realized anything about the incoming call from Zara that she had answered earlier?

Leon put his phone back on the nightstand and opened the closet, quickly putting on pants and a t-shirt.

“Are you leaving?” Evelyn asked.

“Yes. I have to help my friend find out the

  • Boundaries

    “Zara, why aren't you wearing clothes?” Leon looked at Zara confused.Zara walked around the sofa. Leon's eyes remained locked on her. He was well aware that Zara was deliberately making her movements appear sensual. Her expression also emphasized that.“Why? This is my home, after all. Isn't it normal for a woman to only wear a bra and underwear in her own home? Besides, I'm not naked,” Zara said.Zara now sat on the sofa, to Leon's right—where she was sitting earlier. Leon couldn't help but look at the firm curves covered by the bra, as well as Zara's thighs that looked shiny as if they had been oiled.“Yes, it’s normal, but only if you are alone here. Now I’m here, and I'm a man. Don’t you think you are being a bit… excessive?” Leon complained.Zara smiled. Deliberately, she touched the fingers of her hands to her curves, slightly squeezing them.“Leon, you asked what you could do to help me earlier. Were you serious when you said that? Or was it just being polite?” Zara asked, sti

  • Don't Drink Anymore

    Leon stopped by Zara's apartment, a fairly luxurious unit in the eastern area of Greystone Hollow. This was not surprising, considering Zara's monthly income as a doctor must be quite high.When Leon arrived at the lobby of the tower where Zara's apartment unit was located, Zara was already waiting for him—standing and giving him a faint smile. Leon frowned. Zara looked fine. At the very least, she didn't look like someone who was experiencing severe mental problems.But outward appearances are often deceiving. Leon realized that. He dismissed his negative prejudice.“Have you been waiting long?” Leon asked, approaching Zara.“Quite,” Zara replied, widening her smile a bit. “Shall we go straight up?”Leon nodded. They walked toward the elevator.Zara used her special access and the two of them entered the elevator. Zara's apartment unit turned out to be on the 26th floor. Quite high up. They had enough time for a brief chat on the way up.“So, are you okay?” Leon asked, glancing at Za

  • Problem Resolved?

    When Charlie finally lowered his hand holding the phone, his expression was very clouded. No one else in the room heard what the President had said. But, judging by his look, it was clearly not something pleasant."What exactly have you done?" Charlie asked, staring sharply at Leon. "The person who called you just now, was it really Mr. Norm?""Something like that," Leon answered casually. "And I guess you both know what you have to do now."Leon was still cross-armed, smiling faintly. Charlie scowled. His eyes were full of anger."Lower your weapon, Barnes," Charlie said."Sir?" Barnes turned, looking at Charlie confused."I said lower your weapon!" Charlie said firmly.Reluctantly, Barnes did what Charlie asked. But his gaze was still full of confusion. When he looked at Leon again, Leon widened his smile and raised one eyebrow."Is that all? Is that all you need to say, Mr. Minister of Defense?" Leon asked sarcastically.Charlie clicked his tongue. He dropped his backside onto the

  • The Call From President

    Joseph was shocked by what Barnes did. He looked at Leon tensely. He was worried that Leon would welcome the provocation from Barnes.But Leon was extremely calm. One corner of his lip lifted. He had already expected this to happen. And he was fully prepared.“I know you two suspect me,” Leon began. “Maybe you’ve been swayed by that diligent police officer’s incitement. I don't know. I don't really care either. But, if you think I’m going to stay quiet while you put my family in danger, you are wrong. I will make sure you suffer the consequences if my family’s life is disturbed by your maneuvers.”Joseph looked at Leon tensely again. This time, Leon was the one who surprised him. He didn't expect Leon to utter such a threatening statement. Didn't he understand that the two people he was facing were not just anyone?Barnes and Charlie were initially silent. Then, Charlie's laughter broke out. The Minister of Defense laughed freely while patting the sofa.“Insane. This person is absolut

  • What Will You Do To Him, Sir?

    The tension was immediately palpable in the luxurious presidential suite. Although Barnes did not stand, his gestures and gaze indicated that he was ready to take necessary action to eliminate a threat—even if that threat came from Joseph.Joseph had expected this to happen. But, honestly, he was quite overwhelmed. He even had to take a long breath to convince himself that he would be fine.“I apologize. I misspoke earlier,” Joseph said. “What I meant was, he is on his way here. But of course, if the gentlemen are not willing to meet him, I will contact him right now and ask him to cancel his ‘visit’ here.”Joseph and Charlie stared at each other in silence. The anger was still strongly visible in Charlie’s eyes. As for Barnes, he was tapping his right index finger on the edge of the sofa. His gaze on Joseph was extremely cold.“Are you friends with him, Joseph? Is that what you are trying to say?” Charlie asked.“Please answer my question first, sir. He is heading here. Do I need to

  • Joseph's Unexpected Move

    Leon exited Joseph's office and walked down the corridor. This time the aura emanating from his body was not as terrifying as before, but the police officers he passed still didn't dare block him.Leaving the police station, he immediately got into his black Rolls-Royce, driving it onto the highway. This time he was heading to Dimitri's military battalion headquarters. He didn't care about Joseph's earlier request that he should avoid public meetings with Dimitri for now. He was currently in battle mode.Leon's phone vibrated and vibrated. An incoming call from Dimitri. Earlier, before starting the car engine, he had managed to send Dimitri a chat message—informing him of his arrival.[You are heading here, sir?]“Yes. Later we'll discuss what we will do to counter their maneuvers.”[Understood, sir. Is there anything we need to prepare, sir?]Leon thought about it for a moment, then said, “Prepare a few special units. Tell them they will be running an important mission.”[Roger that!
