Wife.

"Who sent you" A man in a trench coat and gloves holding out a plier and twisting it after clamping the index finger of a man Infront of him.

"I rather die than betrayed him" The man screamed loud and continue receiving the torture he asked since he refused to disclose his superior.

Daniel that watching from the next room with a glass separating it stood up.

"Clean up the mess"

He walked out of the room holding his temper, He came to watch the man that was sent to kill him suffered, no one can retrieve the information out of him. All the man sent to kill him are all too loyal. They rather die or let their relatives die than betrayed their leader. He felt helpless when things didn't go his way. He has enemy lurking in every corner ready to get him anytime. That is why he refuse to be in public eye as much as Cade.

"Young Master, Patriarch Anderson request of your presence at the Manor" His personal assistant bow in respect while opening the Bugatti Divo door for him. He drives everywhere by himself unless he is too tired and needing the sleep. At this point he has been awake for 20 hours and famished. He needed to get home and rest.

His bodyguards and assistant will be in the other car following from behind to make sure he is well guarded.

He drove fast to the Manor and greeted by Miranda Teo that is already waiting for him. He knew what his grandfather wants from him as soon as he saw Miranda.

The Teo's daughter is one of the women his grandfather proposed him to settle down with. If only they knew the attempt on his life is daily, they would understand why he refused to date or attach to anyone, let alone bringing a child into this life. Two people he needed to find in order to end this blood bath, but he needed confirmation that they are the ones been sending someone to assassinate him. He hates going blindly only to be wrong and creating another conflict.

"Ms Teo.."

He greeted her politely since he caught her grandmother staring dagger at him, he hates this, but he rather do the things he hates than listening to her grandmother nagging. The shiny marble floor echoed with their footsteps, Miranda smiled and followed him from behind acting like an obedient wife. Daniel on the other hand is an adrenaline junkie, he loves challenges, woman without one does not excite him, if he ever fell for someone he wanted someone that can match his energy, he does not need an obedient wife to cook or clean for him, he is rich and more than afford to pay for a maid, what he needs is a partner and not a maid.

They seated in the dining table and Miranda seated next to him, helping to scoop his food and he remain quiet about it. He does not like act of service, especially from someone he has no feelings.

"Ms Teo, i am fine, thank you, lets eat"

Miranda nodded and smiled towards Gianna Anderson in front of her. Daniel's grandmother is stuck in the old ways where she loves a docile woman next to her heartless cold grandson, Old man Anderson however can definitely read the room, before he signaled Daniel do not do it, Butler Kim has already brought him a new plate with a food he personally served Daniel.

Gianna was furious and clenched her teeth seeing his attitude by disrespecting Miranda just like that. Hiding her embarrassment, Miranda is too smart and she has turned the awkward situation into her advantages. This has earned her brownie point from Gianna. A soft spoken and cunning mind is her favourite type of future grand daughter. It reminds her of her younger self. If she wasn't fast acting and smart, she will never be the matriarch of Anderson clan, her father was only a college professor. Anderson Clan is an established old money that is projected to remain rich for as long as they breathe. She was not a gold digger, but she wanted the status that comes with it. The respect in society. That is Miranda remind her so much about herself.

"I apologize Young Master, i am not aware of your preference about not liking someone touch your food, i will keep that in mind"

"That is fine you didn't know" He continue eating since he has been skipping meals lately. His body needs a good rest before he can start working again. Cade is currently on vacation, and he has been dealing with a shit show at the company.

Too tired to pay attention to whatever the conversation is, he realizes that he has said okay to something. Butler kim that has lived and raised Daniel knows him too well.

"I will send a car for Ms Teo to get the best dress since she will be Young Master plus one at the birthday banquet."

Upon hearing that, Daniel nodded and excusing himself to retreat to his room in the Manor. He do not live with his grandparents, he owned a penthouse in his hotel. Cade on the other hand live with them since he hates living alone. Him and his future wife will be married soon, and the eldest son of each generation are required to live in the manor.

He wanted what his grandfather has been keeping away from him for a long time. However, its not worth it before since he is pretty much able to track anyone he needed. This time, he desperately needed it.

His grandfather has given him the choice for it, he only needs to obey, and he will get what he has been eyeing for so long.

He will wait and see in few months, how the progress, if no progress is made, he will do what Old man needed to get the EYE from him.
