Hours passed away;
*Ring*Ring*
"Yes, Aster" Wil asked how's the reservation went.
"Just like you wished, I've managed to reserve a popular BBQ restaurant until the morning. It's called BBQ Jeong. Located in the downtown, 16 kiloters away from here." Aster reported him with the good news.
Wil then asked, "what about our employees?"
"I relayed the news. They said they will co to the place. It is only a kiloter away from our office, either way. So, by the ti we arrive at the place, everyone will be here."
"Good." Wil nodded to himself in satisfaction. He then asked his whereabouts.
As Aster replied that he just left his house, Wil called him to the apartnt to leave together.
He then dialed another number.
"Hello?" A sweet voice was heard from the other side. However, it felt a bit different.
"Ms. Jiwon?" Wil asked whether it was her who lifted the phone.
"Mr. Ravens, sister is busy, helping out mom with the dishes." Her twin sister replied.
"Oh! So, it's Ms. Hyunjoo. I wondered what's wrong with your voice Anyway, are the two of you free, this evening? I'm organizing a dinner party. Employees of our company will also be there." Wil didn't explain the matter completely and just said they can return ho before midnight.
In response, she replied that she will ask her sister and then, ask their father's permission.
If it is Hyori, he would have said that he will take the permission personally from their dad but since he wasn't that much acquainted with her, Wil just said Okay and disconnected the call.
30 minutes later, he received a call from the sa number. This ti, it was Jiwon.
Unlike Hyori who was cold and Hyunjoo who was too reserved, Jiwon is soone who has an easygoing personality. She didn't even hesitate to request him to take to their father about it.
Wil didn't ask him directly as he thought it would inappropriate. After all, their ages weren't that apart.
So, he let Aster ask him about it and made him promise to their father about the protection of the girls. Since Aster worked as the manager of the Apartnts for the past five years, Wil thought their father would trust Aster more than him.
And as he expected, their father agreed on the condition that they have to return before 11 p.m.
After informing Jiwon, Wil then called another number. He felt that this is the ti to hold his promise to a certain soone.
"Hello" The other side picked up while heavily breathing.
Of course, Wil didn't misunderstand the situation as he further heard the roar and the sounds of tal collisions. "Mr. Chu, are you in the ga?" He asked him.
"Yes. A guild hired for clearing out a legendary grade dungeon of level-250." Min (Death King) answered honestly without hiding anything.
"When I hired you, I promised that I will give you the freedom to continue being a rcenary. However, I hope you won't help out the enemies of our guild." Wil calmly reminded him of their agreent.
"Of course, I know that much, at least. Anyway, what did you call , for?" He asked to co to the point directly.
"You must have known about the news of Ti Traveler acquiring three kingdoms in a row," Wil spoke about it as if it has nothing to do with him.
"Yes, so?"
"I'm organizing a party for the success, this evening. So of the top guild mbers are also arriving. You are invited."
However, Min rejected it imdiately saying that he was busy. Wil at least expected for him to ask whether Ti Traveler is also coming or not.
But, his invitation was rejected flatly. Wil didn't give up and took out his trump card as he had planned before, "Jiwon was also invited."
"Eh?" Min was taken aback. "Jiwon. You an, Lee Jiwon? She's coming to the party?" He asked in a hurried tone.
"Of course. If you want to miss this chance, then, don't bla , later." Wil quickly disconnected the call after sending him the address and the ti.
If he won't willing to co, even after that, Wil wouldn't care about it the next ti. Sure, he recognized his potential but that doesn't an Wil is desperate for Min's help that he needs to put up with his behavior.
Half an hour later, Aster arrived at the apartnt, and later, with the two girls joining, the five of them set out to the restaurant.
As usual, the bodyguards followed them from behind. But unknown to them, a person in a suit was watching the scene from a rooftop of the sa apartnt building that Wil lives in.
He was wearing a similar suit and shades as the bodyguards.
This suspicious bodyguard then called soone and reported the scene he was watching.
"Who are those twins? Are they close with Wil?" The other person asked him.
"Not really, Ma'am. According to the rumors, I heard the young master was close to their eldest sister." He replied what he gathered so far.
The woman from the other side then asked, "Two days ago, you reported about a girl who was accompanied by Wil, all the way to Wular city. Is she the sa girl?"
"Yes, Ma'am." The bodyguard confird it.
"So, Wil not only helps this friend to Wular and now, give a treat to her younger sisters. Hmm" The woman mumbled to herself and then, gave an order, "Ethan, I want all the details of the girl. And also, I need confirmation about their exact relationship. Oh! And tell Silver to increase the guards around Wil. They are nowhere enough."
"Yes, Ma'am."
After disconnecting the phone, the woman sighed as she looked at the city from the 24th floor's balcony, "Phil, you promised that you'll take care of our son You incompetent fool. Why promise when you don't even have the ability to keep it from the start.
Perhaps, you knew that if I knew about your injury, I would have taken my son away with . Had I done that, he would be brought up in a safe environnt and today, there won't be any threat to his life" She let out a deep sigh once again and returned to the house.
There she saw her kids were playing so racing ga on play station. She took a deep breath and walked towards them.
***
At the restaurant, the gars that were invited were waiting for their boss.
As Wil was late due to the traffic, he told them to start without him and will join them in the middle.
Long Jing who received the orders from Silver, relayed the sa to everyone.
If it were the employees of the Scarlet group, they would have insisted to wait until their young master arrives. However, they were just young gars who didn't even see Wil, for once.
The only exceptions are Elyssa and a few others who saw him briefly when he ca to the headquarters after his father's death.
"Today, I'm gonna confirm with our young boss whether he's none other than Ti Traveler." As the girls sat together and chatting about Ti Traveler, Xia Fu, who is an Elite Archer in the guild, voiced her opinion.
"Eh?" Maybe, her voice was too loud, even the boys stopped talking and turned their heads.
