"Since Julie has already been cured," Jonathan said seriously while looking directly at Max, "it is only right that we fulfill our side of the agreent as well."
Then he continued without hesitation.
"Max, we are prepared to join your secret force."
A faint smile appeared across Max's face after hearing that.

"As for your first condition…" Jonathan said quietly, "co with us."
His eyes narrowed faintly afterward.
