Josiah’s heart was in his throat. He could feel the murderous intent the man oozed even through the phone. Had he ruined his good time?

Josiah checked his watch and slapped a hand over his head. Damn it! If he was interrupted while having a good time, he would want to rip the culprit apart too!

“Z…” he tried explaining with a pandering chuckle. “I wouldn’t be calling if it wasn’t an emergency. I thought you didn’t go to sleep this early…”

“I’m afraid you have to go back to Centrolis,” Josiah said in a hushed voice. “News that you aren’t dead has gotten around, and your grandfather is beyond himself. Your parents too…”

“Mm, got it.” Marcus frowned. “I’ll contact them privately, but returning to Centrolis will have to wait.”

Josiah did not understand but could only agree with an “oh”.

“Right, Z. I looked into it today and the client sis-in-law has gone to meet for a sale is the one Karine Carmichael failed to seal the deal with even after three months. Heh… With a little trick from me, sis-in-law will get the deal. The commission is decent for this one. She’d be able to get $15,000…”

A fire was churning within Marcus as he hung up, not even letting Josiah finish.

Fredric nearly choked to death from laughing.

“How nice do you expect him to be when you spoiled his fun?”
