Gracia was forced to act stupid like this. On the one hand, she was forced and didn't want to do it. On the other hand, she had no choice as she had to help her father."William, you look handsome tonight. Are you always this handsome every time you go out?"William furrowed his brows. He wondered himself about the girl who seemed to be a bit over the top. However, before William could ask her a question, Gracia had already linked William's arm with hers, then invited him along.Gracia's actions this time certainly attracted the attention of many people. William pin asked her, "Grace, what are you doing?""William, am I not allowed to hold your arm?" Gracia was being more aggressive and her spoiled voice was getting more and more contrived.

Tania immediately woke up to see who the man talking to her was. She was surprised to find out that the man was Viston Woodley. The son of Albert Woodley, a big investor who also joined the business. He was quite handsome with his sharp gaze and stern face. However, he was not at all a friendly person to joke around with.How unlucky. Tania had miscalculated to the point that she had to fall on Viston's lap like that. How stupid of her. Now she was the center of attention of the few men who were there including William and this was very embarrassing for her."Mr. Woodley, I'm sorry." Tania tidied up her appearance then she apologized for her attitude just now. "I accidentally fell."Instead of responding immediately Viston gave her a look that was difficult to interpret. He said, "You seem to have planned this on purpose or are you looking for attention from one of us?"Suddenly, the men looked at each other and tried to stifle their laughter. It was all because of Viston's smartass

"William, I--"William raised his hand to stop Gracia who wanted to speak. "You don't have to say anything."Gracia looked at Viston and reflexively the man pulled Gracia to stay close to him, as if emphasizing that he wanted to protect the girl. William saw the gesture and he smiled to himself at it.Viston stood with a serious expression, admitting that he was responsible for their presence in that place. "Gracia's not wrong, I forced her to come here," he said.The situation should not have caused laughter. Yet, somehow, William couldn't help his quiet chuckle. His voice was enough to catch the attention of Gracia and Viston, who were now staring at him with confused and slightly disturbed looks.William, realizing his mistake, immediately offered an apology. "Sorry!" he said, his hands immediately raised in a defensive gesture. "I didn't mean to laugh at you guys."Gracia, quick to act, released Viston's hand grip and made a small dash towards William. "Young Master Anderson, what

Mister X," Tania said when they met at a cafe that was located a little far from the city where Tania lived. "Can you guarantee that the potion you gave me will be useful later?"Mr. X was wearing his mask, quite mysterious, not showing his identity. Tania could only recognize him by his voice and the code they had agreed upon."Just put a drop of this liquid in his drink. I'm sure she'll be horny for you," Mr. X said.Tania held the bottle of liquid, then looked at it intently before she looked back at Mr. X."But you can guarantee it, can't you? If this isn't there, won't there be any side effects?""Take it easy, Miss. I can guarantee that this medicine is very safe.""Alright." Tania put the medicine into her bag.
