Zephyr frowned and felt conflicted.

Zennie had grown up sheltered from the world and had been a goody two shoes all along. However, it was easier for girls like this to run into people with ulterior motives.

Zephyr took a deep breath and felt a headache. He spent some quiet time and drove back after a while.

Oliver had been waiting for seven straight days outside a private club in Centrolis. He came every day asking to meet Matthew, standing from 7:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m., but the bodyguards outside kept a straight face no matter how hard he tried.

Matthew was annoyed just hearing his name, forget meeting him.

Just when Oliver was growing desperate, the butler came out to inform him, “Mr. Jones, Mr. Yale invites you in.”

Oliver perked up and hurried in instantly.

There was a huge metal cage in the backyard of the club. Before Oliver went close, he could smell a decaying stench in the air. He was alarmed but could only brace himself and continue going.

To his surprise, there were two vultures kept in the cage!

Yale was toying with an amber ornament. When he turned to look at Oliver, the latter was shocked by the viciousness in his eyes.

“M-Mr. Yale…” Oliver greeted politely.

The vultures flapped their wings all of a sudden and made ugly cries.

Oliver paled in terror and froze on the spot, not daring to go farther inside.

Yale wore an unsettling smile as he glanced at the man and said, “I heard that you’ve been standing outside for days, Mr. Jones?

“Hah, these people are bad at hospitality! They should have at least brought you in to look at these two babies of mine!”

As Yale spoke, he put on gloves and pulled two pieces of decaying meat from a bucket at the side. He threw them into the cage, and the vultures flapped their wings to start eating.
