“Boss, have you heard? It’s about Henley, one of Tatum Corporation’s new leaders,” Daniel said.
Before Jagoan could say anything, Elton said excitedly, “Tsk, tsk, tsk, and after they’ve been married for six years… His two daughters and newborn son aren’t even related to him.”
Daniel sighed. “Yeah, I heard Henley went crazy in the hospital… He first stabbed his wife, escaped, and killed his next-door neighbor. When the police found him, he jumped from the 17th floor.’
Elton shook his head. “Tsk, tsk, tsk, how could anyone be so unlucky? Six years?”
“Yeah, it’s really sad. I think I’d do the same if I experienced such a thing too.”
Jagoan only smiled and said nothing more. He had already set his next target. It was the other guy named Lance Quincy.
A few minutes later, Jagoan received more detailed information about Lance.
“Jagoan, get ready. Let’s go…”

At 7 p.m., one could hear the music blaring in the busy bar before even getting inside.
The bar was full of people crazily twisting their bodies. It was easier to do things secretly in an environment like this.
In a rather luxurious private room, Lance, who had arrived alone, took his seat and looked excitedly at the three unremarkable men before him.
“Where’s the things I asked for?” Lance asked.
“You might not have brought what I wanted.”
Lance chuckled awkwardly. “Look at the time. I can’t believe you’ll make jokes like that.”
