First Meeting (2)

"Sir... please take me in. I, I'm a singer. It would be bad if someone saw my face."

"What the-"

Just as Mia finished speaking, her body became weaker until she fell on the strange man's hand. The man couldn't believe that the strange girl who was holding his boss's car would faint in front of him. People were starting to stare at him while whispering to each other. Some even started to take out their phones, not to mention the sound of car horns behind them made the man unable to choose anything else but to knock on the passenger window where his boss had been waiting quietly all this time.

"Boss, this kid has fainted! Should we take her back like she asked, Boss? It seems like leaving her here will only add problems for us."

Inside the quiet car, sat a handsome man who was now staring at his confidant with a sharp gaze. In an instant, his gaze shifted to the girl who had fainted and was being held by his confidant. The man clicked his tongue as the impatient shouts of other road users began to be heard from behind his car.

"Bring her in. We'll take her to the address she gave. You only have an hour to get her back, Leon."

Annoyed, the man finally decided to help Mia rather than cause trouble on his way home. Hearing his boss's answer, the man named Leon nodded and finished everything quickly. Leon placed the unconscious girl in the front seat when he remembered that his boss would not like it if the girl's wet clothes made the back seat of his car dirty.

The car sped off after that, cutting through the heavy rain that was pouring down on the dense city.

"Fuck... I didn't expect her to be that famous singer."

In the car, Leon muttered in disbelief as the strange girl's face was revealed after he took off Mia's glasses and mask. Leon was a man who enjoyed watching television and social media when he had free time, so Mia's face had a special spot on his memory.

"Damn. I never thought there would be a time when I would help this girl. I rarely praise a singer, but her voice is pleasing to hear, Boss. I even collected several of her albums, and almost all of the songs were written by herself. Although it is strange for a big star like her to wander alone on the road like that, I can consider this meeting as a once-in-a-lifetime fortune. Now, I don't have to come to her concert to see this girl in person."

Victor, the man sitting in the back seat, slightly raised his eyebrows at Leon's unusual behavior. Leon was a smart man. He wouldn't praise anyone just because the girl's face was a little cute and pleasing to the eye. Victor, who was a little curious, leaned forward, staring at the unconscious girl's face without replying to Leon's words at all.

"Now, let's see the address. XX Road... Um, Boss?"

Victor had just turned away from Mia when Leon suddenly called him hesitantly. The adult man read each word on the expensive-looking business card several times before he stared at Mia, who was unconscious next to his seat for a long time.

"What's wrong?"

Victor said impatiently when Leon stared at Mia as if he had just run out of words. Leon only came back to his senses when Victor asked him annoyedly. The man scratched his head lightly before speaking carefully to answer Victor's question.

"She... this girl seems to have a special relationship with Enzo, Boss. This business card belongs to Enzo, and the address where she lives is a special apartment area owned by that man. I never knew that Enzo liked to keep a singer as his lover like this. But to be able to have that man's special business card, this girl seems to be loved by that temperamental man."

Victor's eyebrows knitted together sharply when Leon had finished his sentence. His body stepped back while his fingers tapped his thigh impatiently as Victor tried to think of something.

"Now what, Boss?" Leon asked uncomfortably. Since long ago, their group and Enzo's group had not had a good relationship. Although it was not to the point where they would kill each other if they happened to be in the same place, both of them clearly would not like it if their territory was visited by one party.

"We can't be sure whether she is related to Enzo's group or not with just one business card, Leon. There is no involving innocent people in organizational affairs before we are sure. Have you been so stupid that you forgot that rule?"

Leon suddenly fell silent when Victor seemed to be able to read his mind and immediately told him his own decision in a cold tone. Leon knew what had happened to Victor that the man hated involving outsiders in their problems. Leon was there at that time, seeing how Victor was devastated because their problem involved the man's beloved lover.

On one hand, they might be able to make a man like Enzo indebted to them because of this unexpected event. But on the other hand...

Well, Leon also actually couldn't bear to see someone who was most likely innocent being used again for their own interests.

"I'm sorry, Boss. I didn't think clearly before."

After Leon realizes his mistake, the man apologizes sincerely to Victor. The man replied with a small nod. Victor also knew the true nature of his confidant.

"We'll just drop her off, then go back without any confrontation. I'm sure Enzo won't refuse if we come to help his acquaintance." Victor informed.

Leon nodded in response. Enzo might be known as a cruel person. But, the man was also known as a person who was fair and reasonable in making decisions. If their intention was only to help someone, Enzo would not be stupid and attack his boss under any circumstances.

Leon could only hope that they could return this girl to her home without any problems.
