Predestined Marriage

Jessica, in a fit of sullenness, ordered an excessive amount of dishes which covered the whole table.

They talked as they ate.

When it came to real business, Carl put on a serious look.

"Summer, what do you want to know about the X Organization? How did you know it?" Observing her, Carl enquired.

"It's said that the X Organization is underground. As long as you can afford it, you can find out everything you want to know and buy..." she paused and emphasized, "human lives."

Carl's face changed before he showed a smile, "You know quite a lot about it."

"So, the X Organization is indeed a criminal organization." Summer sat up, pursed her lips, and continued, "Have you seen any killers from the X Organization?"

Carl was drinking and was almost choked as he heard what Summer said.

He put down the glass and coughed. Covering his throat, he forced himself to calm down before looking up at Summer. "Are you kidding? Usually, they don't show up at all. And they have their own ways to contact clients. They never make deals face to face."

A flicker of interest flashed across Summer's face.

She narrowed her eyes and looked at Carl, "You know it well."

Thinking of something, Carl took a glance at Jessica, sort of subconsciously. Then, he quickly explained, "Actually, I am not very clear about it. It's just hearsay."

Summer was still smiling. Obviously, she did not believe him. He added, "You know, I am well-connected, and my friends are of high status. There will always be one or two of them who know it."

"I didn't say you know well about the X Organization because you have dealt with them. Why are you so anxious to explain? It looks like you are covering something."

Summer reached to Jessica's shoulder, "Jessica, what do you think?"

Actually, Jessica was puzzled from the very beginning.

After hearing so much, she could more or less understand what kind of group the X Organization was.
