"Reene, it's me," Kingsley replied softly as he switched on the living room lamp.

The sudden brightness dazzled Reene, so she blocked it with her hand and exclaimed with surprise,"Kingsley, you're back?"

"Yes, I'm home." He approached her and sat beside her, asking in concern, "Reene, what's wrong withyou?"

He was struck by her haggard face and slightly scarlet eyes as she appeared to have been crying.

"What happened?" Kingsley knitted his brows. "Did someone upset you?"

She has just taken over Clark Corporation before I went to Diosna City. Moreover, she's got Mason,Dad's buddy, to help her run the business. Everything should be going smoothly, but why was she cryingalone on the couch?

Reene wiped her eyes briefly. "It's nothing. It's because I watched a touching TV drama just now. No oneupset me."

She doesn't want to worry me, so I should stop asking about it. I'll call Mason later and inquire about it.

Reene got up from the couch. "Kingsley, you must be starving. I'll make you dinner."

"Yeah, I'm hungry!" Kingsley cracked a smile. "Your cooking was all I thought about when I wasn't home."

"Oh, stop talking so glibly!" Reene smiled through her tears and lightly touched his nose. "Wait. I'll makesomething nice for you!"

She walked to the kitchen while talking and started cooking dinner after putting the apron on.

She was not considered slim, but she was curvy with a touch of great charm and innate elegance. Herevery move was quite noble and graceful even though she was wearing an apron now.

Reene was tying up her long hair and staring at Kingsley who was standing to the side. She strangelyinquired, "Why are you staring at me, Kingsley? Are you okay?"

"No." He shook his head. "I just feel that you're very pretty, especially when you're wearing an apronnow. You have a distinct charm about you."

"You've flattered me!" She blushed and shyly changed the subject of the conversation. "Did you happento see Court while you were in Diosna?"

Kingsley leaned against the doorframe. "Yes, I did. She's now the campus belle. She's nothing like thelittle girl she used to be."

"How is she doing over there?? I've been a bit busy lately and have yet to contact her."

"Ah, don't worry." Kingsley smiled and elaborated, "I've hired some people to protect her in Diosna City.Generally speaking, no one would dare to bully her unless the aliens attack the Earth."

The people that Kingsley referred to were Heston and Leoric—one from the underworld, and the otherfrom law enforcement. Of course, having those two people protecting Courtney put him at ease.

Reene smiled tenderly. "That's good…"

Beep! Beep! Beep! It was the password lock of the door. After that, Serena's exclamation came. "Reene,I'm home!"

Kingsley beamed with pleasure. "Is Serena home from Orion Tech?"

When Serena heard Kingsley's voice, she took lighter steps. She dashed up to him and asked insurprise, "King, when did you come home?"

"I just got home." He noticed Serena was wearing a slim-fitting suit and skeptically inquired, "Serena, didthe Mercenary Commission become a technology firm? Why are you dressed so formally?"

She rubbed her brother's hair lovingly. "We tier two assassins had a meeting today to distribute severaltasks."

"Do you need a hand?" He pretended to brag on purpose. "Don't forget that I know Captain Leonard fromthe Cleapolis Military District!"
