Under The Veil of Night

Chapter 192

The next few days, Kanae spent her time following after Kevin"s orders. They were going here and there for the deals that Kevin wanted to happen. Thankfully, she had learned martial arts as it was very tiring to follow after this man continuously.


Misae rested in the hotel and learned how to cook seafood quite often. The chefs became very familiar with her and appreciated her greatly. Her cooking was excellent, and she managed to make a lot of delicious dishes.


As for her relations.h.i.+p with Mike, it was safe to say that they acted as usual. There was almost no difference except the fact that they seemed to be in the same place together very often.


"They don"t seem too different from usual," Tara commented when he met with them again.


"Today is our last day here. Do you have your answer?" Kevin immediately changed the topic.


"You"re truly too serious, but yes. We accept your proposal and terms. I have asked them to write up the contract and they should send it to you tonight."


Kevin nodded his head. "That"s good."


Tara sneered at Kevin and leaned back on his chair. "You"re too upright, Kevin. If you act like that, no girls are willing to get close with you."


On the side, Kanae stifled her laugh. In fact, it was hard to chase those girls from Kevin, rather than no one came to him. She still recalled the numerous chocolates this man got during Valentine"s Day. Who said that his att.i.tude caused him to be disliked?


It was completely the opposite!


"Why are you laughing?"


Neo shook his head. "Our Boss has numerous fangirls. You"re not going to meet anyone more famous with girls than him."


"What? Those girls must be blind! What"s so good about a cold and indifferent man like this?" Tara scoffed.


"I think, girls are more excited about those cold guys," Neo smirked. "They like to be the only one to receive his feelings and see his changing expressions for themselves."


"…Why are you talking as if you"re a girl, Neo?"


"…" Neo rolled up his sleeves. "You say that once more and your corpse will be floating in the ocean tomorrow."


Tara immediately shut his mouth. "You"re no fun. It"s more exciting to tease Jason rather than you two."


Kanae"s eyes lit up in surprise. "You know Brother Jason?"


"Brother? Do you have a family relations.h.i.+p with him?"


"Well, no, but he"s older than me. I think it"s more polite to call him with brother, or maybe senior?" Kanae answered while wondering. She only called him like that because Jason asked her to when they met in the past. Since he was older, she didn"t really mind that way of calling him, so she always used it.


Tara thought about what Kanae said when he noticed something. "Wait, how old are you?"


"I"m 16," Kanae answered.


"You"re even younger than him?" He pointed towards Kevin with bewilderment. He thought that she only looked young, but it seemed that she was truly younger than this man.


Kevin frowned. "Don"t point your finger at me."


"Fine," Tara lowered his arm. "No wonder you"re working for him. It turns out you"re his school friend, right?"


Kanae tilted her head slightly. "I think it"s more or less like that."


Tara nodded his head and smirked. "Back to the first question, Jason is my friend and I often quarreled with him in the past. He"s quite a fun guy, you know."


Faced with his remark, she didn"t understand which part of Jason was funny. However, hearing the word "quarrel," she recalled the young man that always stayed near Jason during the cruise. The young man was tall with brown hair. Most people in this city were not as tall as him and their hair was black.


She had read some news regarding that young man, so she knew that he was a half. Besides, he talked with a slight accent as he had lived overseas for a long time. If one didn"t know better, they would think that he was a foreigner.


Although she didn"t know his name at that time, there was only one young master who had that appearance and temperament. Jason never mentioned him and she perfectly understood the reason.


This man"s real name was Taro Doha, one of the notorious young masters in the Doha Family. There were three young masters from this family and the youngest one, Taro, was also the most famous one. He loved to play around and never did his work at all, which made him the headline countless times.


If one were to talk about the biggest disgrace from the four big families, they would point their fingers towards Taro. All this man did was play with girls, never doing his work at all. However, no one truly dared to offend him as he was still a young master of one of the four biggest families in this city.


"You"re Young Master Taro Doha?" Kanae asked again.


Taro stiffened. "Do you have to guess everything so correctly? Here I"m trying my best to hide my whereabouts."


Honestly, she didn"t try to guess correctly too. However, she paid more attention to the news about the four big families because she wanted to get out of her own family. She had to wait for the perfect chance, so she followed after their news more diligently.


"You"re on the headlines countless times."


"I"m just too famous to make them unable to see me."


"They told me about how you made an artist cry, broke the law, and raced in the Black Street until the local gang made a report…"


Taro immediately raised his hand. "It"s all arts that I perform on the street. The government just can"t appreciate what I"m doing, so they make a big ruckus out of it. In fact, the other young masters also do the same thing as me."


"…"


Neo shook his head lightly. "Don"t trust his words. He"s the best liar in the entire city."


Kanae giggled. However, she also believed that this man had some good points behind his famous reputation as the troublemaker. If not because of those hidden points, she was sure that Kevin and Jason wouldn"t want to be friends with him.


"I"m not lying," Taro shrugged his shoulders. "Just try to hack their phone. You will know that many of them have secret affairs here and there. Some of them even do illegal business."


"Why are you hacking their phones?"


"I can"t hack them. I ask my friend because I"m curious about their private lives."


It seemed like, he was the typical young master who had too much free time for his own good. At the very least, he didn"t try to harm anyone and only did it for his amus.e.m.e.nt.


"I have to return back soon enough," Taro checked his phone. "Jason says that my cover is blown and if I don"t return in a few hours, they"re going to ground me again."


"Okay, goodbye," the others said nonchalantly. Neo even waved his hand excitedly, as if he couldn"t wait to see Taro off.


"Can"t you act like you miss me?"


Neo shook his head. "No one will miss a troublemaker like you."


Taro rolled his eyes. He moved from his chair indignantly while making a call to his subordinate to get him a car and clothes. There was no way he could return while dressed up as a woman like that.


Kanae looked towards the departing man with a slight grin. "He"s really interesting."


"Don"t get too close to him. He"s going to be a bad influence on you," Kevin said flatly.


"Okay."
