Chapter 219

I casually said, "I think there are two things we need to clarify right now."

Zane raised an eyebrow. "What are they?"

Zane took the elevator up to the fourth floor. His eyes scanned the electronics before he dialed Eric's number.

Eric answered, "Yes, Mr. Huxham?"

Zane got straight to the point. "Is the doll ready?"

"If everything goes as planned, it should be delivered to the company on Monday," Eric calmly reported.
