After hearing Roy’s response, Casper grunted. “You have indeed helped me a lot by not calling the police. No one can stop me from taking him away now.”

“Are you telling me that you want to abduct Mr. Lingham in front of me?” Roy’s hands flew to Sawyer’s arm almost immediately. He looked like he was ready to fight Casper.

Afraid that her boss might madden Casper, the secretary tugged one of Roy’s arms and whispered, “Mr. Johnson, are you courting your death?”

“Your boss is not crazy, but he is just trying to test me. Don’t worry. Although I almost killed someone here today, I have held myself back.” Casper bitterly chuckled. “I can draw the line and will not kill your client. All I wanted to do is to talk to him about something.”

“You can talk to him here!” Roy did not budge.

“You are a daring one, aren’t you?”

Casper looked irritated, but Roy still stood his ground. “If you killed Mr. Lingham in the room earlier, I have nothing to say. Unfortunately, you are trying to drag my client out in front of me, and I can’t allow that to happen.”

“What logic is this? Can’t you pretend not to see me?” Casper joked.

“I’m afraid not!” Roy pulled Sawyer over to his side before leading Casper out the door.

It caught Casper off-guard. As soon as the two of them went out, Roy’s expression changed. His lips curled upwards into a smile, and he lightheartedly laughed. “Hey, I had to put up a show for Sawyer earlier though I know that you will not kill him. After all, when he returns to the Lingham Residence, he might blame me for the lack of protection.” He shrugged and sighed. “Well, I have to prove to act like I did everything I could. Here, you can pretend to knock me out and take him away.”

“Not bad.” Casper was stumped for a moment because he did not expect Roy to act that way. Grinning, he patted Roy’s shoulder. “You are planning this well. Tell me, what can you help me with?”
