After the call connected, Septimus spoke and chuckled as he stepped away from the gambling table.

The people surrounding him all turned their gazes on him in unison, exchanging puzzled looks with each other

After all, Septimus would never let anything interrupt his gambling sessions.

Yet, this time, he left the gambling table solely because of a single phone call.

This naturally sparked everyone’s curiosity. Il’ho on earth is he speaking to on the phone?

“How do you know I need something from you? We’re old friends, can’t I just call to check up on you?” Madelyn’s voice was casual,

Upon hearing this, Septimus burst into hearty laughter. “Ms, Thornton, I’ve grown accustomed to your style. You never show up without a reason. What brings you to me this time? Just tell me,”

Upon hearing this, Madelyn couldn’t help but chuckle. “It seems you’re really good at reading people, Mr. Septimus, so I guess I won’t beat around the bush.”

Madelyn snorted coldly. “Why do you care about that? All I need is for you to help me look into it.”

With a chuckle, Septimus could only nod in agreement. “Alright, alright. Whatever you say. Your wish is my command.”

“I’m glad you know your place,” Madelyn replied in a teasing tone.

However, she stopped joking and spoke candidly. “I will send you the exact composition of the drug in a bit. As for you, just utilize your astonishing influence in the black market to help me find out if there is anyone named Janessa who has purchased this drug. That’s all.”
