Two weeks later, news came from abroad that Elsie had died in a car accident caused by a drunk. driver

When I heard the news, I showed no outward reaction, but inside, waves of emotion churned

Those in the Capital City’s elite circles played their games ruthlessly

In those two weeks, the highprofile figure had indeed been negotiating with Elsie and was even finalizing contract details with her

Then, just like that, she was gone

Their patience in playing these games was chilling

Vt reminded me of something Daniel Johnson had once said to me when introducing me to these circles: Dealing with people like this is like bargaining with tigers. The only reason I introduced to them is because I trust you, and I can shield you if necessary. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare.”

It was during this time that Daniel developed feelings for me, but I rejected him
