Love Began with the First Meeting

Stepping out of M-blue restaurant, Brian got in his car and ordered Tony directly," The casino."

"Roger that," Tony said attentively.

It was quiet as usual in the car. Tony, from time to time, would peek at Brian through the rear-view mirror, and once he found Brian deeply gazing out the window, he would let out an unnoticeable sigh.

After Becky had left the day before, Brian seemed to be restraining his loneliness and frustration. Though having seen a lot of killing and being killed since his childhood, Brian had a family who loved him. This might be his first time to feel so depressed and heartbroken.

Tony's face was rather grave. He let out another sigh and steered the car into the underground parking lot of Grand Night Casino.

Brian got out of the car and took an exclusive lift to his office on the top floor. The minute he got off the lift, his phone rang, and he picked it up without hesitation.

Brian walked into his office while listening to the voice reporting on the phone. His brows started to furrow and his eyes became sharp. His anger was becoming more apparent as the call went on. "Feed him to Black Wolf!"

Brian said coldly as he dismissed the call. Then he turned to Tony and instructed," Tell Harrow that I want him to keep a close watch on the U.S. stock market and I need to see Chancellor fall for at least 10% tomorrow!"

"No problem," Tony answered and left.

Sitting in his big and luxurious chair with legs crossed casually, Brian stared intently at the computer screen. The screen was divided into several windows, where the actual scenes in the casino were shown in real time.

Brian's phone rang again.

Moving his eyes away from the screen, Brian picked it up.
