“Edward?” Sure enough, Mike also recognized Edward.
Edward had been working for Alexander for many years and was always next to Alexander wherever he went. Mike had many
encounters with Edward in the past.
However, Mike did not think in that direction. But with Lily’s question, he looked closer at the other man and realized he looked
highly similar to Edward. Even the man’s build appeared to be the same.
“Turns out it's a friend of ours!” Mike smiled, breathing out a sigh of relief.
After relaxing, Mike was no longer as wary as before. He shook his head and said, “Why are you here? Did you fight with those four
men out there? Good job, man! But then, why are you here? Did Alex ask you to come?”

He asked a series of questions but did not realize there was an invisible tension between the other two. Edward did not respond to
Lily’s question from earlier. He neither denied nor admitted he was Edward. He just stood there in silence, his gaze deep.
“Why don’t you remove your mask?” Lily continued to ask, “Is it because you don’t dare to show your face to us, or are you too
embarrassed to show it?”
Mike was taken aback because something seemed amiss.
‘If | remember correctly, Edward is Alex's assistant. That means Lily is also his boss but sounds hostile toward him. That's not how
Lily usually deals with other people.’
Hence, Mike had to ask, albeit hesitantly, “W-What’s wrong?”
Lily was still staring at the man before them. It sounded like she was explaining things to Mike, but it also looked like she was
questioning the other party. “Or are you ashamed?”
“What?” Mike was getting more confused.
“Ask him.” Lily lifted her chin in the other party’s direction and suggested. She looked calm and had everything under control.
“Are you really Edward?” Mike was still unsure. Although the other party did resemble Edward very much, and Lily was confident
about her guess, Mike still wondered if it was Edward.
‘If he is, why is he so cold toward Lily? On top of that, Lily mentioned that someone else was controlling him. Could it be...”
A moment of silence later, the masked man said lightly without removing his mask. “The things you're looking for aren't here.”
Mike was stunned because that voice belonged to Edward. Although the man had yet to remove his mask, his voice was familiar.
“Edward, it really is you! What the h*Il are you doing?”

After all, Mike was familiar with Edward, so he almost wanted to punch Edward lightly. However, he kept his hands to himself and
decided against it.
“Go. Leave this place!” Edward continued.
Mike was confused.
“The things you're looking for aren’t here. Staying here will only bring danger to you both. This is a devil's den, so you should
leave!” he added.
‘He sounds concerned about us, but why is he here in the first place? Also, how does he know our plans and actions so clearly?’
