“About that—” After some contemplation, Kingsley answered, “To be honest, Reene, the owner of Coliree Group used to be my comrade. I merely seized the opportunity to execute the acquisition since he was already planning to do so. He’s also the one who dispatched the Special Forces here—”

However, my professor went missing yesterday, and the forum can’t go on without him. Consequently, my career would suffer a big blow because of that. Before I find him, I will not have the time or mood for blind dates. I’m sorry about this.” Immediately, he hung up
