The day of the Lyon Group anniversary celebration rolled in without a hitch. Everyone was busy doing the final touches as if they hadn't been doing so since the day before. Although many of the employees could have a day's rest since this day was akin to a holiday, many still chose to go to the office and do some work. There were many reasons, but one of them was definitely because of the double pay.
Nothing seemed amiss, or perhaps everyone was just too busy to think of other things. For instance, no one thought about Axel not coming home. After all, this wasn't the first time Axel didn't go home. So no one dwelled on it.
KNOCK KNOCK!
A knock from outside the door reached Grandma Zhu's ears. She slowly raised her eyes to the door, sitting still on the armchair she was idling in Dominic's office. When the door opened, a layer of frost instantly coated her eyes.
Silas.
