Chapter 308: Meeting the man

"Tonight. We'll meet him tonight."

Those words made Maxen's heart race, staring at Conrad blankly. The only answer Maxen could give was a nod in agreement. And with that being said, Maxen and Conrad left the Blac Mansion to meet this dangerous man who was a head of an international crime family. 

On the way to the meeting place, Maxen remained silent. He was sitting beside Conrad in the backseat of the SUV, calming his breathing. When they were near, his thoughts halted as a hand squeezed his shoulder.

Maxen turned his head in Conrad's direction, only to see Conrad offer a subtle yet reassuring smile. The latter didn't need to say anything, as Maxen understood Conrad.

[ I got you. ] — these were what Maxen saw in Conrad's eyes, and the nervousness in his heart subsided.
