บท 324: The CEO's Offer

Akio sat at the head of the table with Chan-Yeol sitting off to the side. Team Zephyr sat a couple seats away from him. Evan sat furthest away from the group, slightly turned away. 

"Seems like it's already set in." Akio sighed. He loosened the tie and sighed. 

"What do you mean?" Manny asked, defensively. He knew Akio well and just because this was Lee Seng's "older brother" didn't mean he trusted him. Manny always felt off around Akio. His personality clashed with his. They both liked Lee Seng and something about all of it rubbed him the wrong way. 

Akio knew Manny had his doubts and concerns about him. He was Number 10, Lee Seng's older brother, a CEO of a Guild and an influential person. Manny had always tried to act tough around Akio, but he somehow always found Manny when he was most vulnerable.
