God, full of dignity and a powerful aura. Blake was feeling inexplicably nervous, the more he looked at him, the more his heart raced. He rubbed his sweaty palms together an

ed the man word by word after being quiet for a long moment. He could by no means comprehend what Zachary Gonzalez was up to this time. When Zachary had instructed him to drive down to the Coffee Club, he was dumbstruck, but he was no in place to question him, he was just an assistant. "No, I'll go in myself," He said his

Pronto, Blake scurried to the entrance and pushed the transparent door for Zachary to enter, bowing his head as Zachary bypassed him. Blake shut the door after his boss, then stood close behind him.

Thinking of this, his eyes became redder and seemed to fill with chilling anger. Suddenly, he flung away Layla's hand like he had touched something filthy. Layla lost her balance and stumbled backward then fell to the floor, causing everyone to gasp, including Ava. Cora, who had been resisting the urge to go pull La
