But meanwhile, amidst all these activities in cornerstone city, a group of people could be seen stepping out of a few cars which were parked at the Cornerstone Airport parking lot. One of these people is a lady who has a silky smooth blonde hair, a pair limpid yellow eyes which seems to be contact lens, and a face that has the resemblance of a baby. She is average heighted while have a chest that doesn’t sit right with the rest of her body. This person is none other than Lily, Ling Fei personal assistant.

Another person in this group is a red haired Asian girl, she has an oval shaped face with red lipstick on her face. Not only that, but she is currently on a red Qi Pao that has flower pattern designed all over it. This person is Ling Fei, this second young mistress of the first class Ling Family. Behind her is her personal bodyguard who is named Bob as he is in his usual black tuxedo which compliments his black hair and eyes.

Another person in the group a lady who looks like she comes from a noveau rich US family as she has her silky and smooth black hair falling graciously from her head while also have a pair of starry black eyes. She wore a simple white polo with a blue colored cargo pants, this person is none other Vivian Rolland, the only daughter to the Mayor of Cornerstone city. Standing beside her is another woman who has a silver colored hair and a pair of gleaming dark eyes, unlike the other females there, she looked more professional as she is in a white colored suite tailored for females. This woman is none other than Everlyn, the manager to the Green Clover restaurant.

And then, right beside Evelyn are three men as the two are behind the one in the middle. These two are an aged man and a middle aged man. The aged man wore a simple casual clothes which fits his grey hair and his slightly weathering face. Apparently, the aged man is Kenneth who is a grandmaster ranked boxer and the manager to the Hidden eye agency.

While the middle aged man wore a black colored track suit as a scar ran down the left side of his face and across his left eye, but it wasn’t able to diminish the manliness that exuded from his face. This man is none other than Jake, the second in managerial command to the Hidden eye agency.

And finally, the man in the middle is a someone who can be mistaken as a simple plain looking businessman. But that isn’t so as a solemn aura is invisibly emanating from his body, he wore a brown colored suite which matches his hazelnut hair and light brown eyes, as he moved his body which it’s height exceeds a whole 6 foot with a silent confidence. This person is none other than Hutton Maxwell who is the owner of both the Green Clover restaurant and the Hidden eye agency as he is the employer to Everlyn, Jake, and Kenneth.

"Urmm.... Boss, what are we supposed to do again?" While stepping into the airport, Jake suddenly asked with a helpless smile on his face. "Are you sure your brain is functioning? How can you still not know why you were called after telling you why a whole three times!?" Lily suddenly said with an annoyed look on her face. But Hutton was still calm as he spoke up.

"This is the last time I am telling you Jake. The plan is simple, you were called to accompany Everlyn and Lily to my new Green Clover restaurant at Houston just for inspection"

"Ok boss. I will remember this time" Jake replied with a wry smile on his face. But right after, Vivian suddenly spoke up in a confused tone. "Huh? Jake isn’t going to follow me to get my dad? Then who will?"

"That would be me Miss Vivian" Kenneth suddenly spoke up which drew the attention of Vivian. "Oh, ok then" Vivian replied as she finally calmed down.

"When will that senior from the ying and yang dojo start moving?" Hutton suddenly asked Bob as they began to pass through the airport procedures.

"As soon as we leave the city" Bob replied with a natural way while his eyes were kept forward. "Ok then" Hutton muttered in the same tone.

"You know, it has been quite some time I last visited DC" Ling Fei suddenly said with a light smirk on her face. "And how was it like when you visited the place?" Hutton suddenly asked with his eyes remaining forward.

"Well there are many things I can use to tag my experience there but one thing I feel is the most fitting is that it was like being free" Ling Fei replied as she began to reminisce on the last time she visited DC. "Oh? Now you are making me anticipate of my own experience there" Hutton suddenly said with a light smirk on his face.

"Then we should hurry before that feeling fades away" Bob suddenly said lightly as they finally went through all the procedures arrived at the waiting area.

Not too long after, the plane that was meant for Everlyn and the others who are assigned to go and check out the new branch of the Green Clover restaurant at Houston finally arrived and was set for departure. After a few farewells and some minor instructions from Hutton, Everlyn and the others finally separated themselves from them as they went towards the route that will make them be onboard the departing plane.

"Say, now that I think about it, its kind of a bit strange" Right before the subtle silence could remain between Hutton and the others, Vivian suddenly spoke up with a curious look on her face. "Why isn’t Veronica with you? I haven’t seen her for a while now?"

Although this question momentarily stunned Hutton, he still quickly calmed down as he replied to her with another question along with a skeptical look on his face. "Huh? Since when did you become concerned about the person that you considered your ’rival?’. Shouldn’t you be happy instead?"

"Urmm... Since when did I say that I was concerned about her?! I was just curious about where she might be hiding herself in defeat that’s all! Stop putting words into my mouth!" Although Vivian was through off foot by Hutton’s rebound question, she quickly covered up her moment of hesitation while having a flushed and embarrassed look on her face.

But her facade couldn’t fool the others as they had knowing smirks on their faces. As for Hutton, his expression was the only one that was a bit solemn as he thought grimly. "Just hang on Veronica, am coming to get you even if it is the wrong thing to do"

While Hutton and the others were patiently awaiting there time for departure to their various assigned location, a peculiar scene was currently occurring at the throne room of the prestigious super family called the Franklin Family.

Apparently, only three people could be seen present in the throne room. And these three people are none other than Franklin, Undying Soul and surprisenly Veronica. At this moment, Veronica looks completely different than what she used to look like before while she was with Hutton.

Right now Veronica looks like a graceful young lady with striking purple hair cascading down her back and shimmering amethyst eyes that seem to peer into the soul. She wears a custom-made kimono adorned with intricate celestial patterns, including lotus blossoms and swirling mist, hinting at her profound connection to the Dao. Her movements are fluid and deliberate, exuding an aura of serenity and hidden power. Around her, the air feels charged with spiritual energy, as if the very essence of the Dao resonates in her presence, revealing her mastery of ancient arts and her deep understanding of balance and harmony.

"What do you want from me father?" Unlike the Veronica you once knew, this Veronica gave off a very icy and cold demeanor even in the presence of her father and the elderly one beside her. But the both of them didn’t seem to mind as Franklin her father suddenly spoke up in an imposing manner.

"Veronica, you will tag along with Undying Soul her to the Culinary Excellence awards both as a representative of the Franklin delicacies enterprise and a bait for Hutton to be captured"

Although Veronica kept an indifferent look on her face as Franklin began talking, but that expression suddenly faltered as soon as Franklin uttered the word ’Hutton’.

’Hutton is going to be present at the Culinary Excellence awards?’ Veronica thought as a longing feeling began to rise within her. But then, after giving it some thought, she suddenly decided to kill this feeling while she asked in a cold tone. "And what if I refuse to go to this awards ceremony?"

Although Veronica wished with all of her being to see Hutton one last time, she couldn’t be selfish and risk his safety because of that.

"Then prepare to loose a loved one" Franklin quickly replied with an apathetic tone while a screen appeared right in front of Veronica. As soon as Veronica saw what was on the screen, her body suddenly trembled while her eyes began to feel teary as she muttered with an hoarse voice.

"Mum.....?"
