Kaia held the black card between her fingers, feeling a creeping unease. Without a second thought, she headed to Graves Group.

Kaia nodded lightly and made herself comfortable inside.

Across the conference table, Lucien raised his eyebrow at the man who was almost ten years older than him.

“Mr. Vane, don’t you think this is a bit much?”

Malcolm, with his infamous temper, huffed. “What’s too much about it? I’m ready to invest five billion dollars. Just send me the account, and I’ll wire it over today.”

Lucien had never seen anyone try to close a deal like this, blunt and absurd.

He gave a hum. “Yeah… no.
