"Then, if you know her… why didn't you tell me she's your cousin!?"
The room, which had been chaotic and loud with heated exchanges, suddenly fell silent. It wasn't just Mr. Ito's stubbornness in refusing to back down, despite Dean Pierson's presence, or the guests who couldn't stop whispering.
It was the mention of T. Mouse—the well-known alias of the person behind Prime Group, a leading security firm that had recently moved its headquarters to Anteca—that commanded everyone's attention.
Just as everyone knew about the drama between the Bennet and Ito families, they were equally aware of the waves Prime Group had made upon entering the market.
"Oh my God," one woman in the crowd whispered, covering her mouth in shock. "Did he… did he say T. Mouse is his cousin?"
"I thought I misheard it."
"T. Mouse is here? I heard they supported charities before moving here, but I never thought they'd attend this event."
