Chapter 1010

Eric remained silent. The corner where he stood was filled with a heavy quietude.

The man’s fist rested against the mirror, his tone shifting into a soft lure.

“Speaking of which, perhaps it’s due to your influence, but I’ve come to find Maja quite appealing.”

“I’ve had her send the stuff to you.”

“Would’ve been easier if you did this earlier. I wouldn’t have had to risk taking lan’s call and almost revealing our whereabouts.”

A smug grin spread across the man’s face.

Eric had a gentle demeanor, and whenever he spoke to someone, it was always with kindness. Anyone who met him would never forget his face. That’s why, during their first encounter, Maja was completely awestruck by him.
