The Supreme Black Card was a rare status symbol. Only about 30 people in the world possessed it, each with wealth beyond imagination.

Sasha's mind was racing as she watched. She needed to figure out how to make amends for offending Felix all this while.

"Security!"

I'm afraid something unpleasant might happen," Felix said calmly. Jamie smiled smugly. "Oh, really? Well, you guessed right. Something unpleasant is about to happen.
