Chapter: 876
As a formidable figure in Terriland's underworld, Marlon was young yet he was shrewd enough to capture Caden's attention and secure a partnership involving a multi-billion dollar contract.
Aware of Caden's clean reputation, Marlon squinted and asked, "What if our venture causes some casualties? Would you abandon our partnership?”
Reclining casually on a gold-trimmed sofa, Caden responded, “My partnership with you isn't about killing; it's about having a fallback. In my business, enemies are plentiful."
Marlon remained doubtful. “Couldn't you ally with more powerful figures? Why pick me?"
“You're young and sharp. The old timers might not have the agility to keep up with me," Caden answered.
He struck a match and lit a cigarette, the rising smoke veiling his eyes and masking his true feelings.
Marlon, youthful and susceptible to flattery and wealth, gently nudged the woman next to him. "Go, keep Mr. Ward company."
She approached Caden with a graceful sway and leaned in close.
Caden offered no resistance.
Marlon's motives were not about pleasure; this was a test.
Blending in was the only way for Caden to fully alleviate any suspicions.
With an arm wrapped around the woman's waist, Caden blew smoke toward her face and asked, “Are you a virgin?"
The club had a reputation for being highly exclusive.
Using her skill, Alicia tampered with a guest's access card to slip inside.
As a stranger in this place and easily noticeable, she tried calling Caden, but he did not respond.
Left with no choice but to blend in, Alicia disguised herself as a masked server to locate him.
The clubs in Terriland were known for their free-spirited and open atmosphere, allowing all kinds of behavior.
The ambiance included servers donning masks, adding to the club's enigmatic vibe, with patrons freely engaging with one another.
Several encounters were overtly intimate.
Not yet accustomed to the club's layout, Alicia navigated awkwardly and ended up colliding with a couple who were just leaving.
The man was completely undressed, presenting a bold and unforgettable spectacle.
Alicia's lips twitched as she covered her eyes and turned away.
At that moment, the team leader said to them, “Hey, you all! Go deliver drinks to room 888 immediately. There are important guests inside, so be on your best behavior and don't cause any trouble."
Reluctantly, Alicia accepted the expensive drinks and followed a group of stunning women toward the private room.
She knew Caden's habits all too well; even if he was here for business, he would undoubtedly choose the finest private room. She figured she would see him soon.
Pushing aside the scene she had just witnessed, a wave of anticipation washed over her.
When the door swung open, a scene of opulence unfolded before her.
The atmosphere was chaotic.
Alicia blended in with the group of women, pouring drinks with practiced ease.
Fortunately, these big shots had already chosen their companions and seemed uninterested in the masked waitresses.
