“W–What happened here?!”

When Ashton followed Sage into the room again, she was stunned. Hearing

the gunshot earlier, she thought Deon had killed Emmanuel, and even if that

Sage, however, was looking at the bullet on the wall, deep in thought.

“Be careful of this maniac, Mr. Payne! He’s probably dangerous!” Ashton finally

recognized Emmanuel’s power, so she warned Sage of the possible danger.

Payne, who was usually cold and unfathomable, say I’m being impudent to a

jerk like him? He even seemed very respectful toward him!

Sage ignored her as he walked over to Emmanuel, uttering respectfully, “Mr.

Lowe, pardon me, but please tell me about the details of the case.”
