The bodyguard, whose life was practically pledged to the Aldridge Estate, wasn't too different from those ancient warriors sworn to loyalty until death. Even Kiran, upon entering the Aldridge family’s domain, knew better than to let his guard down.
"I'm here. Aren't you gonna come down and welcome your guest?" he called out, breaking the silence around him. No response came, just an echo in the air.
Then, suddenly, the elevator opposite him lit up. Kiran made his way over, and as if on cue, the doors swung open for him. As he stepped inside, the elevator smoothly glided up to the second floor.
When the elevator doors parted on the second floor, Kiran stepped out into a dimly lit maze of corridors. He had barely set foot on the floor when a row of lights flickered on, guiding him to the left. He followed the illuminated trail, curiosity piqued.
At the end of the path, a large door stood ajar. Inside, Gordon sat at his desk, greeting Kiran with a slight smile. "Mr. Angelo, nice to finally meet you. How did you like the welcome gift I sent?"
Kiran tossed a badge onto Gordon's desk, frowning. "What's this supposed to mean?"
The badge bore The Silent Shadows emblem, its sun design representing enlightenment. "This badge, Mr. Angelo, was the one you lost in that car crash on the hillside five years back. I had it recovered and returned to you. A thank you would be in order, don't you think?"
Kiran's eyes turned cold. The fact that Gordon managed to retrieve a badge lost five years ago said a lot about his influence.
