I wonder if I know any of them... Although that incident was an accident, I had planned on teaching that man a lesson anyway. It'd be awkward if it's someone I know, but I won’t let him off the hook for what he did to Vivian! How dare he touch my woman before me? He deserves nothing but death!
Finnick frowned at the thought of that.
Noah didn't trust Xavier either.
"Mr. Norton, do you really believe what Xavier said?” he asked.
"Xavier and I go way back, so I know him very well. He isn't the kind who'd do something he wouldn't admit to. I'm not so sure about his efficiency though," Finnick replied firmly.
Noah nodded without saying a word.
"I just hope he can find us something useful. At least we'd be a step closer to uncovering the truth."
Meanwhile, in the Norton family villa, Mark's assistant, Harry came by to report in on his work. He started off his report with the trivial stuff, all of which Mark noted down in his journal.
"Is there anything else you have to report?" Mark asked.
Harry stood up straight as he felt what he had to say next was extremely important.
"Yes, Mr. Norton. I have big news for you, sir!"
Mark's eyes lit up. "Well? Go on, then!"
Harry continued, "A few days ago, I received word of a few people having a fight in the Century Hotel lobby. There was a drunk woman..."
Mark almost lost his temper when he heard that. What nonsense is this? How is this big news? Is Harry trying to get himself fired or something?
