The Obsidian Lounge? Daniel looked at Lily in surprise. "Are you sure?"
Obsidian Lounge belonged to Reese, after all. Lily's decision to visit caught Daniel off guard, but she was unphased. Arching her brows, she glanced at him coldly.
"Is there an issue?"
Her piercing gaze sent shivers down his spine. Withdrawing his gaze in haste, he answered, "No. I'll take you there now."
Along the way, Daniel sneaked a few glances at Lily. Though she had been silent, she looked terrifying. He had never seen her like this before.
Once they arrived at Obsidian Lounge, Lily emerged from the car.
"Wait for me in the car," she instructed coldly.
"Ms.—"
Daniel was just about to inform her that she couldn't enter Obsidian Lounge without an invitation when she just strode right in. The guards didn't even stop her at all.
Daniel widened his eyes, a glint flickering in his eyes. What was Lily's real identity? How could she just enter the Obsidian Lounge freely?
The security here was extremely tight. Even Loid had to ask for the owner's permission if he were to enter. How exactly had Lily managed it?
Lily went straight to the elevator and pressed the button for the 28th floor. As soon as she exited the elevator, a group of people rushed past her. The moment the person in the lead spotted her, he fell to his knees.
"Reese!"
Lily glanced at him, not uttering a word. She walked straight into a spacious room. The people behind her exchanged glances, and two of them began perspiring on their foreheads. They all trailed after her.
The few men got on their knees again once the door closed. One of them said, "I'm sorry, Reese. I didn't expect the Maynards to purchase firearms without permission."
The man speaking was Elijah Jones, the second in command of the underground forces. He obeyed only Lily's orders and had tens of thousands of men under his command. Everyone treated him with great respect.
