On the second-floor terrace, Everett leaned casually against the railing, swirling a glass of wine in his hand. His dark eyes were fixed on the small figure sneaking around in the night. Thanks to his small stature, the kid was able to dodge the bodyguards. Everett's lips curled into a slight smile, more amused than anything else. Just then, Bill walked over, glancing at the little guy before asking respectfully, "Mr. Everett, should we stop him?"

Everett took a sophisticated sip of his red wine, savoring its rich flavor. His tone was cool and detached, "He's got guts. Let him go."
