"It's true that Jonny Zeng didn't take his part," Vincent replied calmly with an indifferent expression.

"But, I would like to believe that Jenifer Zeng's power and means are nothing less threatening than her grandfather's," he added.

"Her purpose is just Edgar," Brian said plainly.

He never once took that woman seriously.
