Elisa's gaze flashed intimidatingly.

Eden saw it and did not want to anger her further. "You're right. You have my number. Feel free to contact me once you change your mind. I'll be waiting for you."

"That will never happen."

Elisa refuted immediately and stood up to leave.

Seeing her persistence, Eden consciously stepped aside.

That prompted Elisa to relax her clenched fist. Previously, she thought he would stop her and was ready to fight back.

Instead, he let her walk off freely.

However, the complete lack of obstruction gave Elisa the sense that things would get worse from now on.

Her instinct told her that Eden was more devious than he appeared.

"Ms. Benett, are you all right?"


Thomas rushed to Elisa as soon as she exited the room.

He remained alert while Elisa was conversing with Eden.

Thomas had noticed Elisa's fierce expression and was ready to act. He was prepared to rush in and help Elisa if she were to fight Eden.

"I'm fine," Elisa replied flatly.

She already had a plan in mind.

"Ms. Benett, I think he deliberately induced you to come here and get you to do something for him."

That man is hiding something. He looks dangerous!

Thomas noticed the smile on Eden's face when he approached Elisa and felt a chill down his spine.

"I don't know what he wants, but we must be careful now. Let's return to the hotel." Elisa seemed unbothered.

Thomas looked at Elisa's reaction and decided not to dwell on the matter.

Once they arrived at the hotel, Elisa returned to her suite.

She turned on her laptop and keyed in the café's name. In less than a minute, she hacked into the café's security system and downloaded surveillance footage of her meeting with Eden.

Then she took a high-definition screenshot of the scene when Eden removed his mask.

She sent a picture of his unmasked face to the Dark Web and executed a search operation. In less than three minutes, information about Eden's identity popped up on her screen.

Unfortunately, all she could find was a brief introduction. 'Eden, aged twenty-nine from Estoccia.'

There was no further information.
