In Apex Company, Reynolds as cunning as he was, approached Kallen with a request.
Kallen, Reynolds began, “There is something I want you to do for me, my love. Can you do me a favor?”
Kallen nodded without hesitation. “You know too well that I can do anything for you,” she assured him.
“Perfect,” Reynolds said with a sly smile. “I want you to befriend Aleyna. Get close to her, learn her secrets, and report back to me. I need something that I can use to keep her in check, to ensure Apex’s dominance in the industry. Can you do that for me?”
Hesitating slightly, Kallen responded, “I’m not sure, but I can try.”
Reynolds chuckled, pleased with her willingness to assist. “That’s my girl. I’ll arrange a meeting between the two of you. Try your best, Kallen. I trust you.”
Reynolds said as he leaned in to kiss Kallen before walking away.
