    “Chapter 63: nning for a Long-Term Task


    None of the girls, including Ruby, had eaten anything since Finn hadn’t eaten either. As expected, they didn’t dig in themselves as Finn jokingly suggested they could. Creating quite a surprise for Finn, both Olivia and Lydia had passable cooking skills – something that seemed rare among girls like them.


    “Have you decided where you would like to rent a ce?” Finn asked the girls after finishing his meal.


    “This afternoon, I asked at the sales office and found that many apartments in thisplex are avable for rent. We’ve decided to rent here,” Ruby responded quickly.


    “Hmm, decide for yourselves,” Finn didn’t interfere with their decision. Wherever the girls wished to stay was fine by him. Finn believed that he would be there for them whenever they needed him.


    It was already 10 0’clock in the evening after dinner. The girls started to take their leave one by one. “Oh, by the way Fishy, I’ve left the numbers of the stores where I bought the clothes I’ve been wearing at the entrance of the dressing room. Apparently, I bought a size smaller, so ask them to deliver bigger sizes of the same clothes right here. You can take the unworn clothes if you want, or give them to your rtives if they don’t mind wearing them. I haven’t worn any of them even once,” Finn mentioned pointing to the dressing room.


    “I understand,” Fishy responded.


    “Alright, I am heading upstairs now. Please lock the door when you leave,” Finn nodded, turned, and walked away.


    The next morning, when Finn woke up, he noticed that they had already reced his clothes. Fishy and Ruby were busy sorting out and arranging new clothes in the stic storage boxes they had bought.


    Seeing Finn up, Fishy quickly said, “Young master, breakfast is ready on the table.”


    Finn nodded and walked to the dining table. There were two fried eggs, a pile of toasted bread slices, and a cup of milk.


    “Nice work,” Finn said. He gulped down the eggs in no time, grabbed a couple of toasts, took the milk, and walked over to where the girls were. Holding up the milk, heplimented them.


    “Fishy cooked it. Among all of us, only her cooking skill passes the test. She cooked the dinner yesterday too,” Rubyughed and said.


    “Young master, we asked around yesterday: none of our rtives could wear these clothes. But all of them are new and unused even if we’ve taken off thebels. If we get newbels stitched they’ll be as good as new. I’ve found a store that is interested in buying these clothes,” Fishy mentioned, pointing to therge stic boxes filled with clothes on the floor.


    “You can decide on these minor issues. I hired you because I didn’t want to deal with these little things,” Finn shrugged off. Now the money was already spent, Finn obviously wouldn’t stand on ceremony. He meant to tell Fishy that they should handle such matters.


    “By the way, I have an errand to run today. Complete the process of shifting to your new amodations today. You can reach me by phone in case you need something,” Finn informed them.


    After freshening up, Finn got into his car and drove off. As he left theplex, he pondered over something before asking, “Zero, do you only provide the funds needed for the tasks or do you also provide rted information? For instance, for the long-term task I am undertaking, knowing your enemy well leads to sess in battles. If I am not privy toplete information, even a lot of money won’t be of much help.”


    “I can provide information,” Zero responded with its usual economy of words.


    “Bingo!” Finn snapped his fingers excitedly. Now, with the provision of information, Finn began to consider embarking on his long-term task.


    This long-term task was more than just a task assigned by Zero. It was also something Finn personally wished to aplish. The prospect of sessfullypleting this task and gaining face intrigued Finn. After all, the heartthrob Kay Lee was an idolized goddess. Bringing his parents’ favorite celebrity home as a future daughter-inw would be a feather in his cap. He felt amused at the thought of his mom proudly crowing about her to the neighbors.


    “First, tell me her schedule for the next month,” Finn contemted and asked.


    Right now, he belonged to an entirely different world than Kay Lee’s. Although Finn had be a millionaire and reduced the gap between them, the difference in their worlds was still toorge. First, he needed to meet her and would require a proper excuse for that.


    “Ding-dong” Zero sent over the information Finn asked for. As Finn flipped through the packed schedule on his phone, he felt slightly dizzy. After reviewing her timetable, Finn couldn’t help but feel for her. The lives of these seemingly morous celebrities appeared to be quite exhausting since their personal time was almost nil.


    “No, first get me background information on her,” Finn suddenly requested. There was no need for Finn to exin how messy the entertainment industry was. Everyone knew howplex it could get, considering the recurring scandals involving celebrities nationally and in Hollywood. Kay Lee had managed to maintain her pure image since her rise to fame at the age of 17. She was now 22, and if there was no back-up, Finn swore he would not believe it.


    When Finn received Kay Lee’s background information, he gave a brief shake of his head after going through it. As he suspected, without any strong backing, she probably would have been devoured by the industry long back.


    Kay Lee used her mother’s surname as she came from a single-parent family. This wasmon knowledge. However, what was not known was that her father, surnamed Davis, owned a real estatepany worth nearly 10 billion me Nation coins. The most influential person in her family, however, was not her father, but her grandfather, who happened to be one of the personal bodyguards of the man whoid the foundation for the transformation and opening-up of the me Nation. A petite man with a great vision, he was an authoritative figure.


    Her grandfather chose to retire after the grand old man passed away. Nevertheless, the lowest military rank among the fellow bodyguards of the great man was Major General. Although her grandfather retired over two decades ago, his service was not forgotten. Owing to his identity, nobody dared cross swords with him. The bond ofradeship with a bunchne of generals was enough to keep her safe.


    Though these facts provided a safety for Kay Lee, her current sess was primarily due to her own hard work. She got no favors from anybody. Her effort was clear from the schedule shared by Finn. It included several business meals.


    After going through the report, Finn gleefully rubbed his hands. Although her background was formidable, he wasn’t any less powerful, was he? Kay Lee had a lot of admirers, including male celebrities and aristocratic youngsters. However,petition drove him further. He confidently thought, “I am not scared of anyone under a fair and squarepetition. Wait a minute! I can cheat, you guys can’t..”
