When the door cracked open, Scorpio stopped sharpening his blade and raised his gaze to stare at his man calmly walking inside, and then he asked in a dead tone, “What is it. Target?”

Flinching, Target took a step back and then mumbled, “She wants you to do a job for her, and she claimed to have the money to pay.”
