Janessa paused for a moment, then added, “Actually, there’s something else I need to ask of you. I won’t get into the details now. I’ll tell you when the time comes.”

At that time, in the study, Sebastian was engrossed in his work, his face expressionless, subtly radiating an air of indifference. His deep–set eyes reflected a chilling intensity due to his focus, and his entire demeanor exuded unparalleled nobility.

He held a fountain pen in his slender and handsome fingers, poised above a contract that had already been reviewed. With effortless grace, he dropped a signature onto the page. It was attractive and artistically designed, exuding a casual yet chic flair.

Malcolm hastily said, “However, Mr. Lockhart, we think we’ve identified someone. That person seems to be named something like Adelar.”

Upon hearing these words, Sebastian was slightly taken aback.
