Fulcrum Group was the driver behind Sagenâs economy.
If anything happened to them, it would be a blemish on Zachariahâs
track record in politics.
Saul said excitedly, âThank you. Thank you, Mr. Dune!â
Zachariah heaved a weary sigh after he hung up the phone.
The secretary chauffeuring him said in a low voice, âSir, I donât think you should get involved in this matter!â
Zachariah lit a cigarette and took a long drag before saying, âHow can
I sit by and not get involved? The Eve family just sacked 3,000 of their employees today. If I donât get involved, 10,000 people will be sacked
the next day.
âAre you going to volunteer to relocate those who lost their jobs?â
The dirt on the Eve family involved human lives.
He did not want to help the Eves, but they were one of Sagenâs
largest families and employed over 200,000 employees.
Saul was sacking employees to force the government authorities t
get involved.
âCome on, letâs go meet Melody Stone. This woman is even crueler
than her father!â
Zachariah got out of the car.
Then, his phone began ringing again.
He glanced at the caller ID. It was Matthew, the governor-general of
the South.
Zachariah trembled as he hurriedly answered the phone. âGoverner â
General Matthewâ¦â

At the entrance to the Empire Hotel, Melody was bringing Nash along
with her to meet up with Tina.
âHello, Mr. Calcraft!â
Tina smiled as she held a hand out in greeting.
Her gaze no longer held any contempt for Nash.
Nash shook her hand briefly. âHello!â
His eyebrows knitted themselves together briefly when he took Tinaâs
hand into his.
Her hand was cold to the touch, but her palm was clammy.
Nash looked up and noticed dark spots in the space between Til eyebrows. Her pupils looked cloudy as well. He frowned as he sa
Youâre sick!â
The smile on Tinaâs face instantly stiffened.
She thought Nash was insulting her.
Nash let go of her hand and said calmly, âYou tremble when you sleep at night and have nightmares that make you break out in cold sweats.
During the day, you experience lethargy, weakness in your limbs, an inability to focus, and hallucinations!â
Tinaâs eyes widened. âH-How do you know that?â
Nash had listed out every single symptom she was experiencing. She had gone for a health check-up, but the doctor had just attributed her symptoms to hypomenorrhea.
Melody smiled as she said, âI told you, heâs got extensive medical
knowledge!â
âIn that case⦠Could you provide me with any treatment, Mr. Calcraft?â
Tinaâs heart was racing.
This was a feeling that she had never experienced in her 28 years of
living.
Nash directed his gaze toward Tinaâs chest.
Tina was dressed in office wear and had on a white blouse beneath
her black blazer.
Her assets were practically spilling from her shirt.
Seemingly sensing where Nashâs gaze was directed, Tina
surreptitiously straightened her back.
âHey, hey. Are you done looking?â
Melody reached a hand out and waved it before Nashâs eyes.
âMelody, we can still remain friends if you donât say anything!â
Tina glared at Melody.
He was such a wonderful man, so why should she pass on trying to shoot her shot just because Melody did not want to get together with
him?
âIâm trying to figure out the cause of her illness!â
Nash rolled his eyes at Melody.
âIs that so? Should I ask Tina to strip naked so that you can get a
better view?â
Melodyâs voice was tinged with jealousy.
She was so much better than Tina in every possible way, but Nash
had never looked at her that way.
Nash said ruefully, âThereâs something off about the pendant sheâs
wearing. It has too much negative energy in it, and itâs causing an imbalance of her inner energies. Tina, if you donât get rid of it, you
wonât make it past the next week!â
Melodyâs eyes widened. âWhy didnât you say that sooner?â
Tina removed the pendant from her neck as she said, âThis was a gi
from my father. I lent it to my niece yesterday!â
