At the northern part of Cornerstone city, a building made of 10 floors plus the ground floor could be found as various kinds of people are seen coming in and out of the building.
At the last floor of this building, 2 grown youths could be seen kneeling down with their heads lowered as they faced another youth who showed his back towards them.
Behind these two youths are two more youths as one of them is unconscious while still looking like a human being while the other one is also unconscious but is the exact opposite of the first unconscious youth in appearance.
Beside the youth who is backing the ones that are kneeling is a robust man that have an eye patch on one of his eyes but still used the other eye to look at the kneeling youth with a furious expression on his face.
"So you are saying that Hutton foiled your plans on ending Vivian’s life?" Suddenly, the youth backing the ones kneeling asked in a calm tone as he turned to face them.
This youth currently wore a simple brown colored suit with a brown colored bowtie. He has light brown hair and a calm yet arrogant looking brown eyes. His face looks like someone that is cold and arrogant to their bones while also giving off an ominous vibe. He has a height of 6 foot 2 inches which made him to be slightly shorter than the one eye patched man.
"How many times do I have to tell you to avoid that bastard at all cost! He isn’t someone you guys can handle! Besides, aren’t there supposed to be 5 of you guys?" The one eye patched man roared with an indignant look on his face.
"I don’t... Know where he went. He just left even without my notice" one of the youths kneeling that have a robust body suddenly answered in a very low tone but everyone conscious in the room still heard him.
"Robert, you don’t have to be so loud. I am right next to you" the youth in brown suit said with his brows creased.

"Ah I am so sorry Sir. I won’t ever do it again" The one eye patched man hurriedly said with a flustered look on his face but the youth didn’t seem to care to what he is saying as he calmly spoke.
"It seems like I have to prioritize taking that thing out before targeting Vivian again"
While the youth in brown suit was pondering on what to do next in the middle of the night. The person who he referred to a ’thing’ suddenly walked out from a stairs which led to his basement.
’Now that I have gotten the information that I need, it’s time to plan for my attack against that little frog’ Hutton thought with a wicked grin on his face.
But unfortunately, he didn’t immediately plan on doing on what he thought as he first took an hour long shower, put some food into his body before going into a deep slumber on his king sized bed.
Ring!! Ring!! Ring!!
"Hmm?" Hutton muttered as he slowly began to wake up from his sleep. After opening his eyes and seeing the morning sun rising from the horizon through the window. He quickly thought while taking his phone which was on the side table right beside the bed.
’It’s morning already?’
"Hello, this is Hutton speaking" Hutton said in a very low tone while trying to get off his bed.
"Good morning boss. I called to ask when are we opening the restaurant to the public. Me and Mr. Hamilton have completed the task you gave us" a pleasant and charming voice suddenly rang out from his phone and entered his ears.
"What is currently the time?" Hutton asked as he began to do some pushups. But before he did that, he put the call on loud speaker.
"now is 17 minutes pass 6 Boss" The same pleasant and charming rang out from the phone. After pondering on how long he will take to get ready, he finally said.
"Open the restaurant at 30 minutes pass 7"
"Ok Boss"
And so the call ended. After ending the call, Hutton began to continue on his exercise for a full 45 minutes before he went to the bathroom to wash himself.
After getting dressed, he unhurriedly jumped into his car and drove out of his house. While arriving at the estate entrance, he finally saw a guard whom he hasn’t seen for a while
"Good morning Sir!" Jake exclaimed in a respectful tone while standing right beside Hutton’s car. After winding down the window that was in between him and Jake, Hutton asked with a surprised look on his face.
"Jake, I haven’t seen you for a while. What happened?"
"Well, I had some family issues I had to handle back at home" Jake said with a depressed look on his face. When Hutton saw this, he knew that something was wrong.
"When am back into the estate, you should come meet me at my house" Hutton said as a light flicker passed through his eyes.
"Really?" Jake asked with a surprised look on his face. He would have never believed that the most esteemed person in the estate would tell him to come meet him after he is back.
"Sure" Hutton answered as he gave out a light chuckle. After seeing him after a long while, he still have a very favorable impression of him which made him to say what he said.
"Ok! Thank you sir! I am truly honored!" Jake said as he repeatedly began to bow at Hutton. While all this was going on, the other guards were looking at Jake with eyes filled with envy.
But while all this was going on, a particular guard was secretly staring at Hutton’s car with a really faint killing intent from a very far distance.
"Don’t mention it, I will be leaving now" Hutton said with a satisfied look on his face before he drove off.
"Safe journey Sir!" Jake said with a look of admiration and a higher level of respect.
After Hutton left the estate, it didn’t take him too long due to his high level of driving skills before he arrived in front of his restaurant.
’Huh? What is going on?’ Hutton thought as he looked at where the entrance of his restaurant is which currently is filled with people. As soon as Hutton got off his car, he suddenly heard a charming voice which he was all to familiar with.
"Sir, you have finally!"
When he turned to see the person who owned that voice, he saw Veronica coming towards him in large strides. Right now Veronica is in a classy white poker dot suit which fully brought out her weapons beneath her clothes.
"Can you tell me what is going on here?" Hutton asked with a curious look on his face as he looked at the crowd at the restaurant’s entrance which seemed to be agitated and restless.
"Well sir, all I can say is that we have become famous in the city in a blink of an hour" Veronica answered with a wry smile on her face.
"What do you mean?" Hutton asked as he became more confused.
"Well, one of the workers proposed that we promote the restaurant so that we can get customers earlier and I felt it was a good idea so I decided to do it. But I didn’t know we will became this famous just from a post I made just 20 hours ago" Veronica said with an expression that shows she wants to laugh and cry at the same time. When Hutton saw, he quickly burst out laughing.
"Why are you laughing Boss?" Veronica said with a pouted mouth.
"Oh sorry I just felt your expression was priceless at that moment. Regarding the post you made earlier, you should feel proud of yourself as this is extremely good to me and the restaurant" Hutton said after he calmed himself down. After saying that to Veronica, he quickly began to walk towards the crowd. When Veronica saw this, she immediately followed him as she thought with red slightly coloring both of her cheeks.
’My expression was priceless?’
When Hutton and Veronica got to the crowd, they quickly made their way to the front of the of the crowd while back the restaurant entrance.
Right now there is a sign post on the glass door of the restaurant which wrote ’Coming soon’ on it. If not for this sign and the two slightly burly guards that stood at the two sides of the entrance, the crowd would have already made their way into the restaurant.
As for the crowd, when they saw Hutton and Veronica facing them with calm looks on their faces, they began to have heated discussion among themselves.
"Hey, do you know who the youth standing in front of the general manager of the restaurant is?"
"Well based on the information I got from other people and some description of a person, I think he is the owner of the restaurant"
"What? He is the owner of this restaurant?"
While these people were having secret gasps while discussing amongst themselves, a particular person in a hoodie suddenly made a smile as the person spoke.
"I have finally found you"
