“You…” It was only then Marcus snapped back to reality. Why and how had he hopped into that car?

When he ran out of the cafe, this car stopped right in front of him… as if it was prepared specially for him. The escape was unbelievably smooth.

However, the more it was like this, the more anxious he was.

“Why were you waiting for me there?”

“Of course, it’s on Mr. Matthew’s order,” the man answered nonchalantly. He turned on the car speaker as well. The heavy metal music was grating on the ears, like the shrill cries of the ghosts.

“Mr. Matthew said that after you take Cordelia out, I should… take you out!”

Marcus widened his eyes. He had a hand on the car door as he looked at the man alertly.

The young man before him was fair and clean-looking. He looked harmless, but the glum and ferocity in his eyes did not look like they belonged to a boy merely 20 years of age.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Grist.” He smiled. “If I wanted to kill you, I’d have done so long ago. I wouldn’t drive you here.”

Marcus gulped. “What do you want?”

The guy pulled a thick envelope and a business card out of the glove compartment.

“Take this money and go to this address,” he said. “Someone will take you there. The money should be enough for you to go into hiding for some time.”

Marcus was lost. He dared not take it, unsure if this would be another trap.
