Arthur bursChapter t out laughing when he heard that, totally different from the serious leader people usually thought him to be. 

He said, “Well, you’ve got pretty good taste–way better than you mom’s, that’s for sure. 

“This girl’s a perfect match for you! 

“You know, Dorian was my mentor. Everything I know, everything in my head, I owe it all to him. If it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t be where I am today. 

“Anyone he approves of doesn’t turn out bad. 

“I really want to meet her, but I’m worried I might freak her out 

“Anyway, as your uncle, I’m genuinely happy for you. 

He said that with a slight look of regret. 

Then he added. “Well, there’s plenty of time, and I’ll have the chance eventually. After all, she’s my junior.” 

Morris looked at him calmly and said, “Oh Arthur, did you invite me here just to catch up?” 

As soon as the words left his mouth, Arthur’s relaxed look disappeared and was replaced by the serious, stern expression everyone in Clusia was familiar with. 

He replied just as calmly as Morris, “Come with me!” 

Instantly, they both shifted into serious mode.- 

Arthur sat back in his large chair, and Morris sat across from him facing each other. 

Arthur pulled out two cigarettes from a metal box on his desk, handed one to Morris, and kept the other between his fingers 

It wasn’t like a boss–employee thing–it felt more like two close friends or comrades on equal ground. 

If Carson was Arthur’s mentor, then Morris was his trusted friend and partner. 

After lighting the cigarettes, the smoke slowly rose. 

Arthur then grabbed a file from his drawer and handed it to Morris. Take a look at this,” he said. 

Morris took the file, put out his cigarette, and flipped through it carefully. 

It was only about six or seven pages, and after looking through it, he closed the file and looked up, 

“Ghost Hand? It’s an organization that mostly hires assassins, so what you’re saying is…” he asked 

Arthur’s expression stayed serious. “The Chost Hand started as a civilian group, but over time, it’s grown into something that goes head–to–head with the political authorities. 

“They don’t care about laws and regulations and just cause trouble. They’re most famous for hiring killers, but it doesn’t stop.

“It’s a whole system thi ultimately turns. 

Both sides have major flaws. 

officials, using their weaknesses to create a cycle of mutual benefit 

Plus, Ghost Hand acts as a middleman between the wealthy and the powerful–they profit from both sides. 

“If this isn’t dealt with, the protection they have will only keep the cycle going, and it’ll just lead to more injustice, more murders, and more threats to public safety. 

“This should be something Clusia’s security department should handle, but sadly, the people we’ve found in charge are already caught up in Ghost Hand’s game.” 

Morris pressed his lips together, his brow furrowing as he flipped to the last page. “I’ve heard of them before, but didn’t really pay attention. 

As for the leader of Ghost Hand, I heard he has never shown himself, so that’s something we need to figure out. 

If we want to wipe them out, don’t you think it’ll cause a huge mess in Clusia? I mean, so many important people are involved, and there could be more than we even know about.” 

Arthur threw away his cigarette butt. “The people in charge in Clusia are too comfortable right now. There’s too much. corruption. It’s time for a change and to bring in some fresh blood.
