However, if he really used this tactic, it meant that Shadow 1 would die alongside Prime Minister Welch. In that instant, Corey hesitated. If I spare Shadow 1’s life, she will definitely hate me when she realizes that Prime Minister Welch is actually Mason. Perhaps she might even kill me because of Mason.
After gritting his teeth, Corey hardened his resolve and made a decision.
Time went by quickly. In no time, a week had passed. At the Lowry Family Conglomerate, someone suddenly knocked on the door. The man in the office stopped what he had been doing and said indifferently, “Come in.”
Opening the door, Sean made sure that no one else was in the office before he walked in. With a solemn expression, he seemed slightly mysterious as he reported, “Young Master Mason, we found out that Shadow 1, whom you have fought before, has made another appearance.”
With that, Mason slowly moved his gaze from the computer in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly. “Where is she?” he asked coldly.
Sean replied quietly, “She will be at Ebony Town the day after tomorrow.”
Since she slipped away from him last time, he had been looking for her whereabouts. A week later, he had finally gotten some news of her. At Ebony Town in Markovia? Sure enough, Shadow 1 is from Markovia! Didn’t that woman say that she’s going to bring me some internal information? Now that she still dares to show up, is she planning to tell me the news? He really wanted to know about this. If she was just fooling around with me, the day after tomorrow shall be the day she dies.
“Young Master Mason, are we heading there tomorrow?” Sean asked tentatively.
Mason arched his eyebrows and curved his lips, a glint of violence in his eyes. “Definitely. We’ll leave tomorrow.”
“Alright. I’ll prepare the plane for you.”
With that, Sean was about to leave the room. However, Mason put down his paperwork and got up. After taking his suit jacket, he said flatly, “Pick Jan up from Woodsbury University first.” I don’t know how long it’s going to take and what will happen during the trip to Markovia this time. He suddenly wanted to see her.
At Woodsbury University, Janet was helping Sharon in her revision. When they reached the final question, her phone—which was in her pocket—suddenly rang. She reached out to take it. After she saw who the caller was, she thought in glee, It’s Mason! Her petal-like lips twitched into a smile as she patted Sharon’s shoulders. “I have to take a call.”
Sharon bit her pencil and nodded with a cute smile. “Sure thing; don’t worry about it.” With that, she lowered her head to look at the questions in the book.
Janet arched her eyebrows and walked out of the room with the phone in her hands. After making sure that no one was around, she finally answered the call. As soon as the call was connected, a low and sensual male voice slowly rang out from the other end of the phone. “Babe, where are you?”
Janet stood there lazily as she looked down at her feet. “I have surgery training tomorrow, so I’m helping Sharon with some revision. Why?” she asked nonchalantly.
“I’m at the entrance of your university,” he said.
Janet took a sharp breath. This guy is making the moves first before he tells me. “Would you like to go back first? I still need an hour here.”
Initially, she thought he would agree. Unexpectedly, he said, “Babe, I miss you so much. Come on.”
His sensual voice held a trace of seduction and coquettishness that made Janet slightly helpless as she longed for him. Without knowing it, she was suddenly aroused. “Alright then, I’ll let Sharon know,” she replied in a rather helpless tone. With that, she hung up and walked back to the classroom.
When Sharon heard footsteps approaching, she raised her head and smiled. “Is your boyfriend here to pick you up?”
Janet hummed in agreement before she walked forward and pointed to a few questions on the book. “Can you do them? If not, I can stay back to help you out.”
Janet bit on the pencil and looked at it before she nodded. “I can do it. I’ll give it a go and send my answers to you tonight.”
“Alright.” Janet walked back to her seat and held her shoulder bag in her hands. “I’m off now,” she murmured.
Sharon arched her eyebrows and smiled mischievously. “Go on! Go!” Even though studies are important, I shouldn’t hinder her from dating either.
Janet took out a cap from her bag and placed it on her head. After that, she got into the familiar black Maybach. After getting into the car, she turned around and looked at Mason with a smile on her face. “Finished with your work?”
