"Okay."
Hearing Jonah agree, Sophie spoke up, "We shouldn't waste our there; let's try to get there before it gets

Jonah nodded in agreement.
The two of them set off toward the location Reece had given them, one following the other.
The sky gradually darkened.
Sophie and Jonah pushed through the thick fog before finally arriving at their destination.
What they found was a secluded valley, surrounded by mountains on all sides.

Sophie looked around, hoping to catch sight of Reece, but after a brief search, there was no sign of him.
Frowning, Sophie wondered if Reece had failed to cto the agreed location.

Reece smiled slightly.
Sophie knew Reece understood her well because, for her, S Corporation was her most significant asset.

need."
Reece said, "I'm quite fickle, so while I'm still willing to hand it over, you better take it now."
