Chapter 113: Are you ready?

At Jessica’s mansion, the atmosphere was tense following the reports Terry had just delivered.

Jessica remained silent for a moment, deep in contemplation. But then, Davis’s voice cut through the air with sharp decisiveness and brutality.

"Also, investigate the sons of the Bradley family. Take note of their weaknesses—we’ll find a way to use them to our advantage."

Jessica feigned contemplation, tilting her head. "Not exactly. I just think you looked quite attractive while making those decisive commands."

Davis chuckled, pleased with her response. The past few days had been surprisingly blissful for him. It seemed the attack had, in an unexpected way, given him a fresh start away from the preying eyes of friends and foes.
