Chapter 242

With a nod, Simon adjusted his mask and approached the door, knocking softly. "Hello, I'm here for my appoi—" His words caught in his throat, and he froze, his eyes widening in shock. Behind the desk, Louis exhaled a puff of smoke as he watched Simon with an amused smirk. For a moment, Simon's blood ran cold. What the hell was going on? Had he unwittingly crossed some vengeful spirit? How else could he explain this relentless misfortune? How could the chairman of Onley Group be Zedrick's younger brother? Louis flicked the ashes from his cigarette. "I have an appointment with the founder of Legacy Twine, right? Mr. Fitzgerald, please take a seat." Louis was a wolf in sheep's clothing. He and Zedrick had nearly beaten Simon senseless, and now, he was acting like they were meeting for the first time. Simon's fists tightened. He wanted to turn on his heel and leave this nightmare behind. But where could he go? No matter how much he hated it, he had no choice but to stay and endure.
