The shocked look plastered on Isaac’s face made Alex road with laughter for a while. Isaac was shocked that his master could plan something so unique and smart, he had expected him to maybe report the families to his grandfather or fight dirty with them but he wouldn’t. He would prefer turning them against each other and watch them drag themselves down. “It wouldn’t be fun going details into my plans so I just gave you a summary. Just watch things unfold.” Alex finally said after the longest laughter.“Why do you look so surprised though?” he asked. “That’s the smartest idea I have ever heard. It’s so epic and different from what anybody would have done” Isaac replied.“Okay. It gets more interesting as it unfolds. Secrets known and unknown would be made public, just get ready. But before then, I would like you to run few errands for me” Alex said, twirling in his chair and chewing on his pen cap.“ Sure young master. What’s that?” Isaac stood up, ready to note down instructions.“

Alex twirled in his chair and Jason question rang in mind.“Why are you doing this? Why are you helping me and what do you want from the Adams family?” Jason had asked before he walked out.

He went into the bathroom and washed his face and head which relieved his headache. As he stared at himself in the bathroom mirror, he noticed the dark circle and eye bags beneath his eyes. He wasn’t a fan of late night so it definitely took a toll on him. He sighed and got ready for work.Spending longer than usual washing the hard smell of alcohol off his body in the bathroom. He finally steeped out, dried his body, applied lotion and walked to the closet to get some clothes. He settled on a blue jeans, white shirt and blue timberland shoes.
