“Nice driving,” Alexander complimented Gai. “If you hadn't reacted so quickly, we could have gotten seriously
injured.”
“Honestly, boss, | was just worried about your expensive car. | could never pay to get it fixed,” Gai admitted.
Olivia let out a surprised chuckle and a reluctant smile tugged on Alexander's lips.
“Don’t worry,” he said as he took off his seatbelt. “I have insurance.”
He got out of the car to confront the idiot who had cut them off. Once Olivia got a good look at the car, she

It was Ethan's red BMW.
“That's Reed!” she told Alexander before he could get out of the car. “He’s Ethan's driver. Lettalk to him. |

Alexander had already opened his door. He was considering her offer, wondering what the right call was. After a
tense moment, he reluctantly shut his door.
Reed-a burly man with a bushy red beard-walked up to the passenger window. Olivia rolled it down and fixed a
smile on her face, trying to remain calm.
“Hi, Reed!” she said, her voice much higher than normal. “We just left Ethan. He's in the bamboo forest. He sent
us away, saying that he needed stalone.”
Reed narrowed his eyes suspiciously, but Olivia was already rolling up her window.

“Can | help you, sir?” the guard asked and hovered his hand over his pocket. This was where he had a taser.
“Yes,” Reed said, then explained that his boss was last seen in the bamboo forest hours ago,
but he never cout.
The guard listened and frowned. Fear shot through him when Reed was finished. His boss would be pissed if a
man was lost when he was on duty. “Con,” he told Reed. “We can look for your boss on my golf cart.”
They hopped into the cart and sped through the forest. As the wind whipped through their hair, the two men’s
eyes scanned the forest. But there was no sign of Ethan.
Finally, they got to the clearing and found Ethan sitting in the middle of the clearing.
When Reed spotted his boss, his eyes widened in shock. He hadn't even recognized him at first.
