We’re talking billions here!”
Bryson subtly motioned to the maid for coffee. “It’s just a business deal in the billions. There are plenty of fish in the sea for partnerships, and this place is ripe with opportunities. All about the art of collaboration, my man.”
Lorenzo eyed Bryson, suspicions lingering. “Mr. Mitchell was all set to do business with Jeffry. What’s with the change of heart, wanting to team up with us?”
Bryson shot back, his voice deep and intense, ““Jeffry’s six feet under. Should I be sealing deals with him in the afterlife? Maybe our collaboration could work out for both of us.”
Hannah cut in, “Fine, spill your terms.”
Lorenzo shut it down, saying, “No way! We’ve never dealt with the Mitchell family. Miss Moore, you can’t just make calls on your own Hannah retrieved her phone, nonchalantly dialing a number and activating the speaker.
In Lightby’s Caditown, Wallace occupied his office, dealing with documents when an individual hastily entered.
“Boss! We’ve got a problem!”
His assistant, tablet in hand, looked dead serious. “There’s been this huge explosion in Blackeye Underground City! And get this- it’s where Miss Moore was doing her negotiations!”
Wallace’s eyebrows furrowed instantly as he seized the tablet from the assistant!
The real-time news displayed on the tablet detailed the explosion in the Blackeye Underground City. Even those positioned outside the perimeter could witness the rising smoke.
Wallace’s face got serious. “Did you get in touch with our folks over there? What’s the deal right now?”
“Everyone from Jeffry’s crew got hit in the explosion at the village.
Lorenzo came out and shot a message to Madam. They seem to be okay, though.”
Wallace had harbored the desire to sever connections with Jeffry but hadn’t identified a viable solution. However, he hadn’t anticipated such an occurrence when Hannah embarked on business negotiations.
Wallace tapped his desk with his fingertips, contemplating whether this incident was a mere coincidence or… Deliberate, an enigma he couldn’t fully decipher.

Seeing him stay quiet for a while, the assistant cautiously jumped in, “Boss, things are getting a bit crazy. Some of Madam’s crew are flipping out, saying the billion-dollar deal is going down the drain because of Miss Moore. It’s turning into a real mess.”
Wallace cracked a smirk, a glint of intensity lighting up his eyes.
“Causing a ruckus as an excuse. They’re just itching for me to deal with Hannah. Going after her on the surface, but really, they want a piece of me.”
The assistant looked a bit worried. “Boss, what’s the move…”
Before he could finish, Wallace’s phone buzzed.
Checking the caller ID, Wallace raised an eyebrow. Why was Hannah dialing him up?
Motioning for the assistant to zip it, he picked up the call.
“Hannah?”
