Six O'clock

NALEDI’S POV

“It’s only natural I show up the day after tomorrow, at the event,” I stated. “Thankfully, Luka believes that I was compelled to forget him and everything that happened so I get a fresh start.”

Caellum nodded, “After the mirage of bad news, finally, some good news.”

“The target is getting in the investors list.” Marcus said, “News reaching us this morning is that there is only one spot left.”

“That fast?” Korah asked, sitting up. “Just last night there was a sure five seats left for partnership. What changed overnight?”

My eyes drifted to Caellum, whose eyes were on me the entire time he spoke. “They were successful. Their first attempt at getting the thing done was successful.”

“That is no reason why they should immediately shut down a partnership they have been chasing for a long time now.”
