Waylon did not say anything in return.
It was about eight after they finished their breakfast, and Waylon went into Sunny’s study room to talk to
him about something.
Sunny was writing something in front of his desk. He said, “Nollace has found something. Donald has
been dealing with Buchanon in private as well.”
Standing by the window, Waylon said, “According to Saydie, Buchanon has been working for Fabio for
ten years. He has been taking charge of the Parkin Chamber of Commerce, and he is Fabio’s most
valuable assistant.”
He nodded. “Buchanon is a slick person. He knows when to retreat, and he’s afraid of death. Although
Fabio doesn’t trust him very much, he’s fine with him taking care of his stuff.”
“I guess Buchanon must be alerted by that batch of counterfeit liquor. He’s worried that Fabio might really
kill him one day.” Waylon turned around to look at Sunny. “That’s why he approached Donald in the hope
of looking for a new way out.”
Sunny put down his pen and raised his head. With a smile on his face, he said, “Now we can only count
on Nollace and see if he can get anything from Buchanon. He has been working for Fabio for so many
years, so he must know a lot of his secrets.”
Waylon looked at the pen on the desk, and it took him a long while before he asked the question, “Mr.
Southern Sr., there’s one thing I would like to ask you. What do you like about me?”
Sunny was stunned for a moment. He raised his head to meet his gaze. Waylon’s eyes were clear, but
his gaze was piercing. Even though there were some unreadable emotions in his eyes, Sunny’s heartstill skipped a beat when he met his gaze.
Sunny decided not to lie to him and chuckled. “You already know about it?”
Waylon lowered his head and said, “I’m sorry. You and Daisie aren’t good actors, so I have been
suspecting it for a long while.”
“Well, it’s true that I have that intention,” Sunny replied straightforwardly. “After all, it’s rare for me to
come across a young man as smart and tactful as you are. You’re even better than me when I was
young.”
Waylon shook his head helplessly. “You’ve flattered me, Mr. Southern Sr.”
Sunny sat on the chair and said, “I’m not exaggerating. I’m very good when it comes to reading people.
Of course, I’m not going to force you or Cameron. I’ll let nature take its
course.
What Sunny did not say was that love could be developed as time went on.
He was not going to force Waylon as he was worried that he might scare him off. He was going to use
the boiling the frog tactic, and he was confident that the things between Waylon and Cameron would
work out somehow.
“Mr. Southern Sr.!”
Mahina rushed into the study.
Waylon and Sunny turned their heads to look at her. Before she could catch her breath, she said,
“Something happened to Mateo!”
Sunny’s face sank. “What happened?” “I just received news that Mateo had been missing for two days. Joaqin sent a team to look for him, and
someone found a headless corpse in the woods. The corpse is wearing the clothes that Mateo was
wearing that day.” Mahina took a deep breath. “I’m afraid it’s done by Fabio’s people.”
At the Southwest Villas…
Gail entered the living room with a black plastic bag. Other than the bodyguards, the rest of the people,
including Buchanon, were looking at her.
She tossed the black plastic bag on the floor, and Buchanon nearly wet his pants when he saw what was
inside the plastic bag. He fell to the floor and stammered, “It… It’s a head.”
Fabio glanced at the terrified Buchanon and snorted. “Stop being so dramatic. It’s just a head.” A
bodyguard picked Buchanon up from the floor. His face was pale and bloodless as he looked at the
expressionless Gail.
The air was pervaded with the smell of blood. Everyone fell silent as they could feel a chill down their
spines when they saw the head that had a grotesque expression.
Fabio picked up the cup. Apparently, he was not affected. He lifted his eyelids and chuckled. Well done,
Gail.”
Gail lowered her head. “It took me two days to locate him. I’m sorry for the delay.”
“It’s fine. The most important thing is that you’ve completed your mission.” Fabio waved his hand and
commanded his bodyguard to take the head away. He rose to his feet and walked up to Gail. Putting his
hand on her shoulder, he said, “Huntley has told me a lot about you. You indeed didn’t fail your reputation
as the Black Widow.”
