Chapter 47: Gregorio's Toy

"Quite a nice toy you've picked up, Gregorio," said the leader of the Millers, Kevin Miller. He wore a pristine, white suit and sipped on maroon wine. "He figured out I was behind Jim Destiny."

Gregorio chuckled before motioning for Arthur to sit. Xavier pulled a chair over, allowing the crimson-eyed man to sit comfortably. Kevin and Gregorio chatted as if they were old friends.

Arthur sat blankly, uncertain of what to do. The Millers hadn't interfered with the conflict yet, but sending an envoy–the leader himself–to meet with a certain side was quite bold of them. Gregorio welcomed him with open arms, another thing Arthur found strange.

"Let's get to the topic at hand, shall we?" Kevin suggested, to which Gregorio nodded fervently. The two leaned forward with solemn expressions. An awkward silence descended upon Gregorio's office.
