Elios looked at Ren with a sharp gaze. "What is your relationship with Karl Sotterham?"
Ren shrugged. "He's my assistant. I think you already know that. Why ask such unnecessary questions?"
"I want to know why you hired him." Elios folded his arms across his chest and looked at Ren with a probing look. "I think he's been working for you for a long time."
"That's right. He was my mother's assistant when she was alive. After my mother died, Karl went abroad to work. We met again in England when I was in university. He was very kind to me and always took care of me because he felt indebted to my mother," Ren didn't feel threatened by Elios's questions, he was not worried that Elios would suspect him of having a family relationship with Karl because he and his uncle were not alike at all.
