“Yes, yes, that’s right!” Nicholas heard it and ran to them. “See, Linda? I told you Cordelia’s the most sensible and understanding! Heh!”

“When did you say that?” Linda looked at him with a disdainful frown.

“Uh… just now!” Nicholas grinned obsequiously and hugged Linda. “Sweetheart, I know you’re reluctant to part with your best friend. I am, too. Why don’t you leave your job? Let’s move to Centrolis too!”

“What are you going to do there?” Linda chuckled. “Build your gang there? The ones in Centrolis will gobble you up!”

“It’s actually a good idea.” Zephyr eyed Nicholas, and both of them went off to one side.

Zephyr nodded with a smile.

“Mm!” Nicholas shot him a grateful look.

Although they were often shooting jabs at each other, none of them slacked when it came to doing something for each other at critical times.

Zephyr smiled and told him in a whisper, “Hide some personal cash if you can when your businesses all turn legal.”

“Hmm?” Nicholas furrowed his brows.

Zephyr patted him and spoke wisely. “So you will have the money for a pack of cigarettes!”
