Eight hours later.
James woke up with a headache, his eyes seemingly spinning endlessly around him. He saw he was already in the room of his residence, with food and drink served on the nightstand near the bed.
There were three bowls with different fillings; one bowl contained bread, and the remaining two were soup and grapes. A glass, along with the bowls, seemed to be kept on the nightstand.
James looked up at his room, clearly seeing it was already 1 p.m. James picked up the glass and drank the water in it.
"Is Lara coming home?" asked James, curious.
He was sitting on the edge of the bed, drinking from the glass. The bedroom door opened, and two maids walked in carrying different trays.

Lara and Carlos were standing looking at the whiteboard; none of the people in the displayed photos were known. James alone was busy looking for a mini-projector to show the mission details to the two. "There are three people with the name Rosewood here. Are they involved in this case?" Lara asked James. "From what I can tell, they are involved with each other," James replied. "Oh, now I understand why Major Gilbert asked you to marry one of the Rosewoods," said Lara. James walked from another room, the tool room, to his office. His right hand seemed to hold a box-shaped mini-projector with a small glass ball in the center. "Prime," James called out, activating the AI system that had been on standby. [Prime activated] [Is there anything you need, Mr Lawrence?] "Please copy the entire mission data to the mini USB," explained James, sitting on the single-seat sofa while looking at the glasses lens.

"Is Lorenzo's mission unfinished?" James asked Carlos. "I think so. He said he got the mission three weeks ago, so he'll probably catch up with us in the next one or two weeks," Carlos replied. "He'll understand when he comes here," said James. James sat on the single-seat sofa, staring at his laptop and a mini projector. Carlos sat alone to his right while Klaus sat on the long sofa close to Lara. "Before we go on this mission and split up the tasks, I need to ensure you don't have anything important to leave out, right?" James asked. "Eva can run the restaurant with her waiters. I'm ready for this one," Carlos replied. James smiled, his head circling to look at Lara and Klaus. Lara didn't mind, as long as the mission area was only in Carran. Besides being close to the hospital where her sister was being treated, Cerbero didn't dare approach this area. "As long as Cerbero doesn't follow me here, I'll do it," Lara said.

James seemed ready in his black suit. He had submitted the paperwork for the application at Eclipse Company. The man had received a reply two hours after he applied for the position. The man was still on the first floor of the Lawrence residence. Lara walked up to James, who looked dignified in his black suit and AI glasses. "The CEO of Eclipse Company is your brother-in-law. Why don't you ask him for a job?" Lara asked. "He certainly wouldn't like it nor approve of it. Applying as usual is the right thing for me to do," James replied. "Right, they'll never know you work there," said Lara. "But what about the other staff? They might know that you're the CEO's younger brother-in-law," Lara asked.

They went straight to work as soon as James looked at them.A few people briefly glanced at the man, mostly the women in the place. They didn't expect the man to meet with Issac directly.It was certainly a problem for them because they didn't meet the old man directly when they came to apply.That's what made them all think that James was a special person.

Caroline entered her room, followed by James, who walked behind her. She was busy tidying up the bed she had just used to make love with Arthur. James took off his long black coat and hung it on the hanger. Not only that but also the white shirt as well. "I-I'll explain everything to you," Caroline said, sitting on the edge of the bed with her head facing James. James, who was now only wearing a white shirt and black trousers, began to turn his body around, returning Caroline's gaze coldly. "It was an accident," Caroline replied. "I was drunk, and he took me home. After that, I don't remember anything else," Caroline explained. "I'm sure he put something in my drink, but I failed to prevent it," Caroline said, looking at James with concern. The man standing before Caroline smiled broadly as he placed his pistol on the dressing table. James walked over to Caroline and crouched down right in front of her. His right hand reached forward, wiping away the tears that wouldn't stop fa

Prime managed to connect his system with her personal cell phone.Amelia picked up her ringing cell phone, watching the unfamiliar number call her.

Amelia complained."I'm not interested in that. I want to talk to you about something," James

After talking with Amelia, the woman had to return to the office to discuss many things regarding her cooperation with the Benstar Company. Amelia said goodbye, unlike James, who still sat accompanied by a dish of chicken salad that James had yet to finish. "They'll probably come home at night. So, you don't have to worry about them being home this afternoon," Amelia explained. James cleared his throat as he continued eating the ordered food, "I see." "Let me know if you need any other help," Amelia said. The woman walked away from James, carrying a tote bag in her hand. James watched as Amelia returned to her sedan, leaving the café with her driver heading towards the city center. It didn't take James long to finish the chicken salad he had ordered; it was gone in seconds. Now, James would refocus on his mission; his nearest goal was to improve his knowledge of the pharmaceutical field. "Prime," James called, simultaneously activating his AI system.
