Edward Trent suddenly spotted Mason King, who had abruptly entered through the back door. Even on their first encounter, he instantly recognized him as the head of the King Family and controller of its vast business empire.
He quickly withdrew the hand he had just extended towards Suzanne Trent.
"It's alright, everything is fine." Mason King held Suzanne, gently patting her to soothe her while softly whispering into her ear, "Don't be scared, alright?"
Suzanne had just experienced an overly tense escape, but her entire body relaxed the moment she saw Mason King. She felt icy cold as she leaned into his arms, and the man rested her head on his shoulder. She closed her eyes and exhaled, seeming to expel all the lingering fear and terror from before.
"Mr. King," Edward Trent suddenly spoke up from the side.
