At the new Chairman's office, Nigel had just finished reporting the weekly progress and the upcoming schedule for the month to Noran when Noran signaled him with a hand to stop talking.
Nigel fell silent, his keen eyes observing as his boss frowned at his phone.
Being quick-witted, Nigel deduced that Noran must have received some unpleasant news, most likely related to his beloved fiancée.
Sure enough, Shuri had just texted Noran, informing him that she wouldn't be joining him for dinner tonight because Karlene had organized a reunion dinner with their college friends.
Ever since Karlene returned to Sol City, she had been interfering with his relationship with Shuri.
She even volunteered to be Shuri's bodyguard after learning about the gruesome parcel Shuri had received a couple of days ago.
Noran's expression grew stormy as he put down his phone, his irritation palpable.
"How's the investigation going?" he asked in a cold voice.
