Then, he looked at Rina. “You heard them. The plan’s delayed for a couple more days.” “It’s fine. I’ll do as you say.” Rina waved at him, indicating that she was fine with it. Zane nodded. “Let’s go.” “Yeah.” She got up and went out of the suite. After they got into the elevator, she asked, “I’ve been meaning to ask you, why did she agree to this? This is a nice job, but she also risks getting exposed. Titus will kill her if he knows she isn’t Rina. Not easy impersonating a rich girl, you know.” “Money.” Zane put his hands behind his head. “Nothing better than that in this world.
As I said, she’s born to a misogynistic family and grew up in an abusive environment. Didn’t get much education either. When I found her, her parents were trying to marry her off to a fifty-year-old widower for two hundred grand. They were planning to use that money on their son’s marriage.” Sonia’s eyes flashed with disgust. “Her parents are worse than animals.” “Yep. That’s why I spent two hundred grand to buy her off from them and promised her a million and a house if she impersonates Rina and becomes our spy. Once we topple the Grays, I’ll give her what I promised and also a new identity. That’s why she agreed. Because I saved her, and she can get a lot out of this,” Zane answered.
“I see. But a million isn’t much. I’ll double it. That should be enough for her, but what about her family? What if they expose her?” “Don’t worry.” Zane’s eyes glinted maliciously. “I have my men keeping an eye on them. They won’t come to this city. Besides, I gave her a clean slate before I brought her here. Even if someone suspects her, they won’t find anything if they investigate her.” “I see. That’s good to hear.” Sonia smiled in relief. “Oh, I’m going to Fuller Group after this. I have a negotiation with Toby, so I can’t send you home. So…” Sonia gave him an understanding smile. “I can get a ride back. You can go ahead.” After they came to the first floor, they went their separate ways at the junction.
Sonia got a ride back to Paradigm Co, while Zane went to Fuller Group. At the same time, Tom was leading Titus to Toby’s office, where Toby was waiting. After he went in, Titus sat down before Toby. “I guess you know why I’m here.” Toby clasped his hands, looking at Titus. “Tina,” he answered curtly. Titus nodded. “Yes, it’s about Tina. She told me that you’ve been ignoring her. You didn’t even give her a chance to explain herself. What did she do? Why are you so angry at her?” Toby stared at his desk. “Titus, are you here because you want to, or because Tina asked you to?”
