89%
Emmanuel still had some concerns that Derrick and Magnus were somehow connected despite his initial judgment
suggesting the complete opposite.
“Mhm,” Mackenzie responded casually and ended the call.
Although his wife was somewhat distant, Emmanuel felt a warmth coursing through his heart. It seemed that she
trusted him a great deal. It was completely different from when they had just gotten married, as she was suspicious
of everything.
“Well, that’s settled. Shall we head to The Paradise, Mr. Finch?” inquired Emmanuel as he approached Derrick after
ending the call.
Derrick grinned mischievously, completely abandoning his well-mannered businessman persona and adopting a
more rogue-like demeanor. He playfully bumped into Emmanuel’s shoulder and chuckled. “Hah! You were just
pretending to be a decent person earlier. You truly are an experienced man! That’s why I’ve always said that no
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtman is truly decent. Look at you and your acting earlier!”
Emmanuel could only smile wryly and didn’t bother explaining.
In reality, he had been to The Paradise once before. Mackenzie had asked him to handle Samuel. So, he had
brought Sheldon over here to confront the man.
“Come on. You can hop in my car. See? I’ll even cover the gas money!”
Derrick was very enthusiastic. Since he had said that this was a business trip at the company’s expense, he
wouldn’t allow Emmanuel to spend a penny!
Not only that, he didn’t act like a superior at all. Even though he was now a minor shareholder in the company, he
didn’t order Emmanuel, his subordinate, to drive. It was as if they were good friends. Every action he had taken and
the words he used made it seem as though he was genuinely here to have a good time with Emmanuel! In fact, he
was so friendly that it also looked as though he would be more than willing to defend Emmanuel if he got into a bar
fight with someone.
During the journey, Emmanuel engaged in casual conversation with him and managed to gather some basic
information about this guy.
As expected, he was a businessman from Zovince who had come to Yeringham. He came from a wealthy family.
So, the information packet on him was correct when it stated he was a wealthy heir!
When Emmanuel heard that he was from Zovince, his guard was raised further. Could he be a spy sent by Magnus?
Yet, Emmanuel couldn’t help but see him as not someone who could ever be a spy. That was especially true when
he was faced with Derrick’s sincere attitude. The fact that Derrick was completely defenseless against Emmanuel’s
attempts to extract more information from him only made him seem less like a mole.
“Woah! This place is quite impressive, Emmanuel!”
Derrick appeared very satisfied as he arrived at The Paradise’s entrance and surveyed his
surroundings. He chuckled as he went on his tiptoes just to wrap an arm around Emmanuel’s shoulder, saying, “You
must be a regular here, right? Can you introduce me to some beautiful ladies?”
Emmanuel couldn’t help but scratch his nose and smile wryly.

He had only been here once. So, how could he possibly be a regular?

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNevertheless, he did know who the top performer here was. Therefore, he immediately said, “The most beautiful
lady here should be Elena Lyle. Unfortunately, her appearance fee is very expensive. They say it’s considered a
great honor to have her perform once!”
“Is it really that extravagant?”
Derrick’s eyes immediately lit up, filled with anticipation. “Hehe, I just love high-end things. Tonight, I’m going to
show off and make my ancestors proud!”
Emmanuel noticed the undisguised greed in his eyes and immediately knew he was genuinely a lustful person.
Derrick wasn’t pretending at all.
Where did Hannah find such an extraordinary person to take over her shares?
“Oh, have you booked a room, gentlemen?”
As soon as the two entered the lobby, a flamboyantly dressed female manager greeted them with a
smile.
This treatment was completely different from Emmanuel’s last visit.
After all, he had a golden ticket with him this time. Although Derrick didn’t look great, his clothes indicated that he
came from money.
On the other hand, Emmanuel was dressed casually. So, the female manager treated him as Derrick’s subordinate
as she focused all her enthusiasm on Derrick.
