Chapter 4 Matching pocket watches

"Send this letter to him ~ I am sure he will come. Two days ~ I just have to wait for two days ! It's been so long since i have used my official name Nox Ximen"

-----------------Maxwells house-----

Maxwell was taking a shower as his butler Tian Laofer stood outside with a robe and a letter with a sharp knife by it's side

"Master you have received a letter from Nox Ximen ..... The envelope does not belong to any royal family and nor to any kind of association. " Tian Laofer said waiting for a response.

"Place it on the table." Maxwell took his robe before coming out of the shower as he sat down on his bed letting his wet hairs cover his forehead. He raised one of his eyebrows and tilted his head slightly opening the envelope as he started reading . "Laofer go and have the MC Luxury prepare my outfit for the ball snd make sure they make it in time."

"Sir but....."

"No questions , Just do it" he looked out of the window as he kept the letter in a box proceeding to get ready . "Nox Ximen.....How can i forget that face of yours , it wasn't sadness or regret ..... It was something he longed for . "

In a couples of hours he was already at his company having a neeting at the moment talking about the messed up shit that was going on which was regarding the continuous death of the royalties.

Ciao Ming -

" There was another murder of another royalty. Next day of his murder .... The information about the " Living dead" drugs leaked and the one who got murdered was Noè Michaelis. According to the investigation department his two of the limbs were broken and there were small bite marks on his body . According to his wifeb, he fell off the stairs which caused the broken limbs and the bite marks ! she indeed added he had a snake but the main thing is the snake wasn't there ~ The investigators couldn't find anything further so they ended up closing the whole case .... you know how his wife is and now the company is in her hands ."

Hao Lingman -

"If you think that way then with her husband dead who's gonna get the most benifit ! obviously it's her Anyways we shouldn't dig any further in this case"

Xu meng -

" Why ? Killing nobilities so easily .... no normal person can do it and if it's an association doing the dirty work then we would have already known , there is not a singke associations record that we don't have and all of them are bunch of cowards. "

Hao Lingman -

" What is the point of digging this case any further ? He deserved it anyways and you know the " living dead" The drug~ if he had that in his company then ofcourse he killed many people selling the illegal drug . Karma always have it's way back. On top of that he's dead and the investigation department already closed the case "

Xu meng -

" I see.... Well it's just a useless man anyways.... who couldn't even protect himself and let alone his daughter ! What a pity she died just because she knew the truth about that drug . "

Maxwell long -

" Degrading a nobility is a crime and sentence so be careful with your words"

Xu man -

" I'll be careful and he's already dead ! besides it's only us here

Maxwell Long -

"The meeting is dismissed and if any murder happen , make a list about how they died and their background as well as other necessary information you gather ! That's all for today."

---------------After meeting------

Pei sei -

" Are you going to attend the ball ? you don't like crowded places .... "

Maxwell -

" I'm attending it since i got an invitation from Nox , wait it wasn't Nox who send the invitation it was Mc Loren Ryuu. I received a letter from Nox this morning . He wanted me to attend it and I have waited for so long ".

Pei Sei -

" Long awaited Nox has arrived ~ I don't know much about him .... He's an orphan to begin with so how's bhe going to attend the ball ? Commoners aren't allowed to attend or Something is going on between Nox and Loren... ".

Maxwell Long -

" Rumours spread faster than a wild fire"

Pei Sei -

" You just can't bear to hear that ".

Maxwell Long -

" You know those fuckers never leave a chance to ruin someone's life and Mc Ryuu is a decent person and a man of dignity. He have a deep love for his reputation and his career is over if he's not careful!. "

Pei Sei -

" I can't make you jealous ! You cold blooded monster ".

Maxwell -

" Mmmm~ by the way do you remember the design of the pocket watch that my late mother gave me on her death bed ?"

Pei Sei -

" I do "

Maxwell Long -
