Kanae communicated with Jason about making the preparations for Laura's company. When she asked him to start up the company, Jason agreed immediately with a small request.

"I want to have a high position in the company too.

"

"You can be the second president…

"

"Does that position even exist?

"

"If doesn't, we'll just make one. Anyway, thank you, Brother Jason.

"

Finishing her task, she went to Kale Company early in the morning. The others were already waiting for her. In her heart, she was complaining. What time did you want me to come?

"Don't be too noisy, Boss is sleeping,

" Mike reminded when she came in.

Kanae noticed that Kevin was sound asleep in the car. She nodded and hopped in silently. Her eyes secretly traced the curve of Kevin's neck. It seemed that the wound has healed completely.

The journey didn't take a long time, and Kanae paid attention to the route that they took. It was completely different from their previous trip. This time, they were heading towards the West, which from what she knew, didn't belong to the Ryukalin Clan's territory.

She was rather confused by this man's decision. Why did he want to go to someone else's territory? Didn't he worry that they might try to capture or plot against him given his position as the clan head of the Ryukalin Clan? Still, she didn't voice out her opinions and stayed silent during the journey.

Mike looked towards the two sleeping people behind him. He shook his head slightly. In truth, he and Neo wanted to go without asking Kanae to come. However, Kevin wanted the girl to come with them. He gave the reason that it would make them less conspicuous, yet the other two almost didn't want to believe him.

Although they said that this was a work trip, it was just a guise for their real reason for going. Kanae's presence might hinder their movements as they have to be careful to not alert the girl.

"We've arrived.

"

This time, they planned their stay in a small hotel. It looked rather ordinary on the outside. Compared to the many other hotels in the vicinity, this place was severely lacking in presence.

"President, we've arrived,

" Kanae woke up Kevin gently.

The man opened his eyes slowly. His dark irises looked towards Kanae as a smile formed on the corner of his lips.

"Good morning Kanae.

"

"Good morning, President.

"

"Let's get to work. Neo, you check in to the hotel. We're going to inspect a nearby construction site.

"

"Yes, Boss.

"

Neo got out and unloaded their belongings. After he was done, Mike drove the two of them towards a nearby construction site. This place also used Kevin's equipment, so Kevin had more than enough reason to come over for an inspection.

"You should wait here,

" Mike warned Kanae to not come too close.

Kanae nodded. Her eyes looked towards the building in front of her as she wondered about the reconstruction of the special school in the center of the city. The last time she went there, the foundation had just been laid. How long would it take for the majestic building to finish construction?

After talking to the foreman for a couple of minutes, Kevin returned back. He repeated this process as they visited a few other places. For places that bought kitchen utensils, Kanae could come along. But for those that bought construction items, she was not allowed to.

"Boss, it's already late,

" Kanae noticed that it was already sunset. The sky was going to get even darker.

Kevin nodded.

"Let's go back to the hotel and have our dinner.

"

"Yes.

"

Kanae leaned back on her seat as she recalled her usual daily routine. She would have to skip the training again today. Hopefully, Master Rudy was not angry that she went for a work trip at this time.

They arrived back at the hotel, where Neo already booked a table for them. They quickly sat down and ate dinner. This time, the dinner encompassed a selection of chicken meat, broccoli, soup, and some other dishes that Kanae didn't pay attention to. All that was in her mind was how delicious they looked and how she ravenous she was for the food.

"You eat very fast,

" Neo sighed when he saw how Kanae ate. It was totally unrefined!

Kevin shook his head and patted the girl's back.

"Slow down a bit. The food is not going anywhere.

"

Kanae nodded with puffed out cheeks and gulped down the food in her mouth. Upon seeing Kevin and the others eat with such high-class manners, she sighed to herself. She corrected her posture and began eating slower, yet with more sophistication.

Neo and Mike:

"…

" if you could eat like that, why are you making a show out of yourself by eating like a country bumpkin?

The dinner soon ended and Kanae was rather satisfied. Kevin ordered a lot of food, and the two of them ate the most. After that, Kanae returned to her room to sleep.

"Neo, have they come here?

" Kevin asked calmly. His real purpose in coming here was not to meet with his clients. They were just a cover. He needed to meet with the Tamari Clan Head. Of course, he would not force the Tamari Clan to meet with him immediately after he arrived.

Neo shook his head.

"They want us to meet with them tomorrow at the place they have specified.

"

Kevin narrowed his eyes. This could be a trap since they were certainly unfamiliar with this area. In addition, they were not allowed to bring too many people inside. Facing off against those people from the Tamari Clan with only three people was impossible.

"Boss, are you sure that you want to do this?

" Mike asked worriedly. If something happened to Kevin, they wouldn't be able to forgive themselves.

"Yes,

" Kevin answered calmly.

"We're going there tomorrow.

"

Mike and Neo looked towards each other. Since Kevin had said so, they would just follow what their leader said.

"We understand, Boss.

"

Neo recalled something.

"Oh yeah, Boss, I manage to invite out the head of one of the biggest gangs in this territory for a talk. They're located not far from here. Do you want to give them a visit?

"

"Let's go.

"

The three of them walked out of the hotel as they headed to a narrow alley not far from there.

On the other hand, Kanae was enjoying her time in the room. The decoration was simple and the size of the room was not too big. However, it suited her as she liked how the hotel decorated it.

'President should not be here only for business meetings, right?'

Going to someone else's territory, there was only one possibility that Kanae could think of.. However, she tried her best to forget about it as she snuggled into her blankets and fell asleep.
