Chapter 745 Visit Out Of The Blue

Alex wanted to enjoy this peace for as long as it would last, since there hadn't been many moments of peace in his life lately.

But fate was a cruel mistress, and his peacefulness was cut short soon after it started.

*Dooroorooroo*

His intercom rang, interrupting his head scratches, as Kary was about to get up and go answer. But Alex put his hand on her thigh.

"I'll get it. We aren't expecting anyone, so it must be reception."

Kary smiled at him, kissing his forehead as he got up, and she stayed seated.novelbin

Alex sighed, disappointed with how calm never seemed to stick lately.

He reached the intercom as it rang for a third time. Pressing the answer button, he saw the smiling face of the receptionist, who usually manned the downstairs desk at this time of day.

"Hello, Mr. Leduc. My apologies for disturbing you, but we have a man here wishing to speak to you. His name is Louis, and he says he works for a certain 'Azamus.' Should I let him up?"

Alex frowned at the names.

He knew no one named Louis, but he certainly knew who Azamus was. But he had no idea how they would know where to find him.

"No. Tell him I'll be down there in a few minutes. Tell him you'll call security if he asks to come up again."

The man nodded his head, still smiling.

"Very well, sir. I'll relay the message."

The screen went black as the call ended, and Alex's frown deepened.

Kary had heard everything from the living room and was also sporting a scowl.

"What does that guy want?" she asked, her tone cold.

"I have no idea. But I'm more curious about how he found out where I live. This isn't common knowledge, or something just anyone can look up..." Alex replied.

But he at least didn't seem rude, contrary to his alleged master.

"Whatever it is, I would prefer you use our real names instead of our gamer names, Mr. Louis," Kary asked, giving him a stern look.

"As you wish, Ms. Deveille," Louis replied, taking a small apologetic bow.

"In any case, this discussion won't be happening in our home. Let's go to a more neutral place. I hope you don't mind," Alex said, pointing toward the building's entrance.

"Not at all," Louis replied.

Louis had a car parked in the building's car park, on the public portion, and he offered to take them to wherever they wanted to go, but Alex declined his offer.

"I'll call us a ride. I don't trust you or your boss. Nothing personal."

Louis bowed his head in acceptance.

It made complete sense, given the strenuous relationship between them inside New Eden, and it wasn't his place to question this or complain about it.

He was just a messenger.

Alex called the only person he knew could have a limo to them in a brief delay, Mr. Gu. The man sighed on the phone since assisting Alexander wasn't his job, but he still complied.

Jack had given him the order to accommodate Alex if they needed him, so he could only wish the young man had never called him. But a limousine wasn't much trouble, so it didn't bother him too much.

The vehicle reached the condominium building in minutes, and the three boarded it, heading toward downtown.

Alex gave an address to the driver through the rolled-down window and then sat down. He had picked a posh restaurant in one of the commercial high-rises since he had heard it was the perfect place for business meetings.

It even had private rooms for such meetings, and the service was apparently excellent. This was the perfect chance to try it out.

The trip there wasn't long, and the limousine driver told Alex he was going to wait around the corner and to call him directly once they were ready to leave, giving him his card. Alex thanked him as he took the card and disembarked from the limousine.

Once inside the building, and up to one of the last floors, they took out a private room and were seated in minutes.

Now, it was time for the true talks.
