My Substitute Wife is a Bigwig (Loud and Lily) novel Chapter 210

Elliot rarely bothered with people or matters that failed to pique his interest. His knowledge of individuals' backgrounds only extended as far as necessary for research purposes.

Still, he recognized the two men in his office. Earlier, K had asked him to look into Loid Laurier and Jason Martinez. Delving deeper, he uncovered their social connections.

As it turned out, both visitors were employed by Loid. Intriguingly, one of them hailed from the esteemed Knight family of Bridgeport.

The situation fascinated Elliot. What had Venom done to provoke these men to the point where they demanded him from Alchos?

Shaun smirked. The silver ear stud on his left ear reflected a jarring light. Digging out his ID from his pocket, he handed it over to Elliot. "This is my ID."

Elliot's eyes wavered in shock when he saw the ID. Moments later, he returned the ID and explained, "Alchos has liaised with the authorities. I believe you have no good reason or the capability to find trouble with us."

"Oh, Mr. Quade, you misunderstood us. This is nothing more than a routine patrol." Shaun smiled. "It's just a formality so that we can report back to our bosses."

Elliot squinted before guffawing. "Sure. Go ahead, please."

He personally led Shaun and Daniel to check out the premises starting from the first floor. Apart from the top floor, the rest of the floors were office areas.

Each year, Alchos would hire new graduates equipped with professional skills. The newbies would be assigned to different floors for their internships, and the top performers would be assigned to minor missions as training.

As Alchos was a famous name in the country, many candidates applied to work here. Hence, each floor was filled with many employees.

Shaun and Daniel appeared to be looking out for safety breaches in the building, but they were, in fact, silently scrutinizing the employees.
