When Hayden spoke, there was pin-drop silence in the Kelly Villa, "I am not going to help them." He meant Shane and Maisie. "So please do the need." He stood up and elegantly buttoned his blazer, "Is there any question I need to respond to?" He sounded so casual that it felt like they were in a restaurant for a casual chat.
The officer shook his head in a daze because they got the information, much more than needed, without any effort.
"May I take leave with your permission?" Hayden asked just for the formality when he already knew his presence wasn't required anymore.
The officer stood up suddenly and flashed a smile filled with high honor to the old man. With Hayden's connection, he could have turned all the officers' hard work into ash. He respected the old man for it. After a short bowing to Hayden, "I am sorry for the trouble we caused, President Kelly. We won't bother you anymore. Have a good evening."
First Test. Could you guess Zelda's next tests?
