Bab 401: Heart of Stone

"Miss Miller, there's no Jonathan Pierson in the Pierson family registry."

"W — what?" Patricia's face went blank, her heart sinking. She stuttered, "But… that… that's impossible. He told me his name is Jonathan Pierson!"

However, at this moment, Patricia realized the man only introduced himself through a call. Therefore, she had no idea if his name was even true. 

Zoren shook his head slightly. "Whoever sent you clearly doesn't care about your life. However, you're still useful to me." He slowly rose from his seat, his eyes cast down on her. His gaze showed no trace of emotion as he coldly said, "Miss Miller, the moment you accepted this gig, your life was forfeited. The only reason you're still breathing is because I allow it. Keep playing the game."
