It was currently 12 midnight and the city of Guangdong was currently in a calm state as most of the people living in it are either in a deep sleep or they are being coped up in their house working out their lives.
Now on one the tall buildings at the central district of Guangdong, a man in a while suit could be seen standing quietly and motionlessly in front of a french window along with a glass of wine on his left hand.
This man have a grey colored hair which is neatly arranged on his head and a slightly wrinkled face which surprisenly have a serene look on his face. He has the body height of 6 foot 3 inches
And while this man was quietly standing in front of the window, a silhouette suddenly appeared at the end of the large office room that is relatively dark. As soon as this silhouette appeared, the man suddenly spoke up.
"Did you get him?"
"No master, he surprisenly stronger than we thought" the silhouette replied with a tinge of anxiousness in it. When the man heard him, he immediately fell silent for a few minutes.
After a few minutes went by, the man suddenly spoke up in a calm and serene tone.
"You should have investigated more thoroughly on how strong he is"
"Yes master but–" the silhouette hurriedly said in a fearful tone before he suddenly exploded as blood splashed all around the office room.
Bang!!
"Clean this place up" the man said still in a calm tone while he was facing the window as soon as the silhouette exploded.
"Yes master" a voice suddenly trailed into the room as soon as the man spoke up. As for the man who was just quietly standing in front of french window, he suddenly closed his eyes as he thought.
’I must get him before the others’
And so, the night came back to his calm and serene again as people began to clean the mess that just appeared in the man’s office.
Knock! Knock!
In the next day, while Hutton was doing a simple pushup in his room, a knock suddenly came into his room which made him to pause a little on his pushups.
’So early in the morning’ Hutton thought with a confused look on his face as he stood up from the push ups he was doing before he took a towel that was on a chair close to him before he went towards the door.
"Ling Fei, what do you want?" Hutton asked with a calm look on his face right after he opened the door and saw that it was Ling Fei who is now on a simple blue polo and a short blue jeans in front of his door.
"What do you mean what do I want? Am here to take all around Guangdong" Ling Fei replied with a light smile on his face.
"So early in the morning?" Hutton asked another question with a confused look on his face. Right now it was a just 8 in the morning and Hutton doesn’t find any reason why he will go out of his comfort zone by this time.
"Of cause, there are so many things you need to see in Guangdong that if we don’t go out early enough, you won’t be able to see everything today" Ling Fei answered with an assured look on her face.
"And what if I tell you I don’t want to go now?" Hutton asked with a calm look now on his face.
"Then you can just forget about the tour around Guangdong because of we don’t go now, then I might be not get the chance to take you out for the tour around the city" Ling Fei said with an indifferent look now on her face.
"Ok then bye" Hutton said as he suddenly stepped back amd began to close the door to his room.
"Ok wait" after staying silent just for a second, Ling Fei hurriedly said with a frustrated look on her face right before Hutton closed the door to his room completely.
"Are you now ready to listen to what am saying?" Hutton asked as he opened the door to how it was before with a light smirk on his face.
"When do you plan on going for the tour around the Guangdong?" Ling Fei asked lowly with gritted teeth.
"In the next two hours" Hutton answered after pondering on it for a while with a contemplating look on his face.
"Ok then, I will come here to pick you up in the next two hours" Ling Fei said in a seemingly calm voice before she suddenly walked out of that area.

’Seems like she is pissed’ Hutton thought with an amused look on his face before he went back into his room as he closed the door.
Right after he closed the door, Hutton continued on his pushups for a few more minutes before he finally stopped as he sat down on his bed.
’i should check up on my business and the agency’ Hutton suddenly thought as he picked up his phone and began to make a call with it.
"The number you are trying to call is currently unavailable, please try again"
’Why can’t I reach out to her?’ Hutton thought with a confused look on his face while he stares at his phone. Apparently, he has been calling Veronica for a few times and each time he calls, he will always get an response that she is unavailable at the moment.
"Let me try Tina" Hutton muttered to himself as he tried to call Tina. As soon as he dialed Tina’s number on his phone and began to call, it immediately connected as a relieved feminine voice suddenly sounded out of his phone.
"Mr. Hutton, you finally called!"
"Is there a problem?" Hutton asked with a confused look on his face as soon as he heard Tina.
"Although there isn’t anything major happening here right now, but there is still an issue here which is getting me worried" Tina said with a worried tone this time.
"What is it?" Hutton asked another question as he tried to remain calm. After all the unnecessary incidents he has encountered throughout the time he came into this era, he isn’t too worried with what Is to come.
"Mrs. Veronica still haven’t come to Star City to help me out and handle your restaurant here and I have been trying to reach out to her but her number is always unavailable. Although I brought another manager who will take care of your restaurant for her, he still doesn’t know how to manage a restaurant which is making things problematic for both your restaurant and me" Tina explained with a worried look on her face.
’What?’ Hutton thought as both confusion and shock mixed all around his face as he immediately fell silent for a full five minutes.
"Mr. Hutton?" Tina spoke up with a curious look on her face when she noticed the silence at the other end of the call as her voice brought Hutton back to his senses.
"You don’t have to worry Miss Tina, I will see what I can do from here. All you have to do is to please handle my restaurant before I take care of this"
"Ok Mr. Hutton, I will try my best" Tina replied with an anxious voice before the call suddenly ended. As soon as the call ended, Hutton immediately made another call as he thought with a worried look on his face.
’What has happened to Veronica for her number to be unavailable?’
"Hello Jake" Hutton said as soon as he noticed his call has connected. As soon as he spoke up, it didn’t take up to a minute before a deep and calm voice sounded out of his phone.
"Yes boss"
"I want you to do something for me. What I want you to do is to find out the whereabouts of a young lady whose name is Veronica Franklin. I will send you her profile as soon as I end this call.
"Ok boss. Luckily, I don’t have anything to do at this moment so I will start this job as soon as possible" Jake said in a happy tone.
"Good. Once you know about her whereabouts, immediately give me a call" Hutton said with a slightly relieved look on his face.
"Sure thing boss" Jake said in an assured tone.
"Now let me send you her profile" Hutton said before he ended the call. As soon as he ended the call, he immediately send Jake everything he knew regarding Veronica’s appearance.
’I just hope he quickly find Veronica. As for now, I think I should get myself ready before Ling Fei comes for my tour around Guangdong’ Hutton thought as he quickly dropped his phone and went towards the bathroom to get himself refreshed.
But he didn’t know that what he was going to find out will be one of the shocking truths he will ever discover in his life.
