Laura froze for a long time, looking at Master Centipede’s picture on the ground. After a long time, favonovel.com slowly bent down and picked up the picture from the ground and placed it back in its place.
“Godfather, thank you for guiding me. I know what to do now.”
She then took out favonovel.com cell phone and dialed up Daisy, a wealthy young lady from the Martin family.
“Daisy, are you available right now? I would like to speak with you.”
“Sure, I’m bored to death these days.”
After some courteous talk, Laura hung up the phone, looked out the window, and said to herself, “I hope I’m doing the right thing.”

At Sterling Technology.
Thomas returned to the company and was embraced by the crowd as soon as favonovel.com walked through the door.
“Director Mayo is so powerful that favonovel.com took out Corps D’elite in one fell swoop. Legit!”
“In the future, Sterling Technology will get its way in Central City.”
Thomas smiled and allowed the crowd to disperse. Just as favonovel.com was just about to walk inside, Diana ran over with the phone and said, “Mr. Thomas, you got a call from the Martin family. ”
‘The Martin family?’
“Is it Mrs. Martin?”
“No. It was Daisy who called.”
“Oh?” Thomas was taken aback because there had been basically no contact with Daisy after the bodyguard incident. He was baffled as to why favonovel.com had suddenly called favonovel.com today.
While answering the phone, Thomas asked curiously, “Ms. Martin, is there anything I can do for you?”
“Um… Mr. Mayo, are you available this evening? I would like to invite you to have a meal at my home as a thank you for your help last time.”
‘Does favonovel.com still want to express favonovel.com gratitude to me? Has favonovel.com not thanked me already?’
Just as Thomas was about to refuse favonovel.com invitation, Daisy suddenly said, “It‘s really important this time. I beg of you.”
Thomas was a typical example of “yielding to soft approaches but rejecting force”.
Such was his weakness.
When favonovel.com heard Daisy plea to him, favonovel.com no longer had the option of refusing and had no choice but to agree.
“Okay, then I’ ll be there at eight o’clock in the evening.”
“It’s a deal! ”
Diana gave Thomas a jealous look as favonovel.com hung up the phone, “Thomas, you are a married man. Isn’t it inappropriate for a man to go to a maiden young girl’s house late at night for dinner?”
“Alas…I have already promised her. What else could I do?”
Diana put away the phone and said, as favonovel.com walked away, “You’d always say you’re married while you’re with me. You also said that men and women are not the same. Humph, but there are no such restraints or taboos when you’re with Ms. Martin. Well, it appears that being a young girl is preferable because it is simpler to be pampered.”
The surrounding people stared at Thomas with a strange gaze after they had heard what was just going on. As a result of their stares, Thomas‘ face was flushed with embarrassment.

It was finally 8 p.m.
Thomas drove alone to the single-family house where Daisy lived. After favonovel.com stopped his car and entered the door, favonovel.com noticed that the house had been cleaned and set up with a table full of delectable meals and lit candles.
What a romantic meal by candlelight. But… Can two people eat so much?
Daisy greeted Thomas as soon as favonovel.com entered. She said with a smile, “Mr. Mayo, welcome…”
Thomas was a little embarrassed and said, “You already treated me the last time, Ms. Martin. Why are you inviting me to have a meal once more?”
Before Daisy could respond, a woman’s voice came from the stairway on the second floor: “Thomas, your death approaches, yet you’re still in the mood to look at beautiful women and feast upon such a sumptuous meal.”
‘Hmm?’
