Chapter 34

(Leo's POV)

My mother's condition is becoming increasingly unstable.

On that day, I took her call in front of Daisy Garcia, which was intended to introduce them to each other.

Unexpectedly, the first thing my mother said was that she wanted me to kill Flora Mana.

So I spend a lot of time discussing her treatment plan with the doctor, and then I coax and lure her into a fancy sanatorium. Then I stay with her for a few days to calm her down, which at least stabilizes her state.

When I finally get back to the office and am about to take care of business when George Howard sends me a message.

"I'll be celebrating my birthday next Tuesday at Porter Hotel at 8 p.m. Do you want to come?"

There is nothing wrong with the message.

What's wrong is his new head photo.

It's a picture of him and Daisy Garcia smiling.

It is as if to announce that they are already together.

A childish tactic.

"No time." I coldly snort with disdain and reject his invitation.
