After a moment’s silence, Hera asked, “Can I help you?”


    Nash grinned. “It’s nothing. I just wanted to treat you to a meal and talk shop with you!”


    Hera’s attitude softened. “Send me an address, then. I’ll meet you in the evening!”


    Nash pursed his lips. What was going on with her? Was she that easy to trick?


    Before Nash could say anything else, Hera added, “Perhaps you


    shoulde pick me up in the evening. My car’s in the workshop at the moment!”


    Nash remained silent for a brief moment before heughed and said, ” That works. Should we save


    each other’s numbers?”


    Hera immediately answered, “Sure thing. Is your WhatsApp ount


    connected to this number?”


    “That’s right.”


    “Alright, I’ve sent you a message!”

    “I’ll check itter. My connection isn’t the greatest at the moment!”


    “Later, my foot. Stop acting!”


    Hera huffed.


    Nash was stunned. “What?”


    Chapte


    Hera continued speaking, “Did you really think I wouldn’t know who


    you are?”


    Bewildered, Nash said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about!”


    “Well, do you have any idea what the phrase ‘three minutes’ means?” Hera’s tinklingughter rang out


    from the other end of the line.


    “Holy shit, can you not bring that up?”


    Nash immediately spoke in his usual voice.


    Due to his injuries, he had given in after just three minutesst night.


    “Just you wait. I’ll make sure you repent once my wounds heal


    “I’m so sorry, honey. I won’t run my mouth anymore!” Hera knew


    about Nash’s stamina and immediately chickened out. She started


    begging him for mercy.


    “That’s more like it. I’ve arrived at Sagen. Is work busy for you?” Nash


    asked in a much gentler tone.


    “Very busy. I have a meeting at one!”


    Nash instinctively checked the time. It was three minutes befo


    A gloomy look settled across his features as he asked, “Did yo that on purpose?”


    “Huh?”


    “What?”


    “Alright, enough for now. I really need to head to my meeting!”


    As she said that, a secretary knocked on her office door and said, ”


    Everyone else has arrived, Ms. Lewis!”


    Hera hung up the phone.


    Nash took a shower and then sat cross-legged on the bed so that he


    could try engaging in conveyance.


    However, a sharp pain traveled through his energy center when he began working with his true energy.


    Nash sighed andy down in bed to nap.


    It was already past five in the evening when he woke up again.


    Nash grabbed his phone and called Finn, asking him for his help in bringing Hera to and from work for


    the next two days.


    Then, he called Ster.


    “Why can’t I reach you on your old number, Nash?”


    “I lost that phone. Were you trying to reach me?”


    “Yes. I heard that you were severely injured, so I’ve been call check in on you!” Ster said as he lit a


    cigarette.


    “Master Mark Bundy, he…” Nash’s voice became tinged with s


    “I heard…” Ster said as he heaved a sigh. “Well, as long as y

    “Is Philix alright?”


    Nash was concerned about Philix’s well-being.
