On this night, some people were on edge, while others schemed in the shadows.

Inside Pivotage, Yvonne led Jace through the dimly lit, luxurious hallways. The man behind her was like a bat lurking in the darkness, sending shivers down her spine. Christopher had been waiting for some time in a highly secretive room.

"Mr. Bailiff, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon."

Christopher smiled and handed him a glass of wine he personally poured. "It's been a long trip. I specially prepared this top-tier wine to welcome you."

"Christopher, you keep bothering a young girl. Do you think I have nothing better to do?" Jace looked at him coldly.
