Chapter 1234 Chapter 1234: Madisyn met his eyes.
"Honey, I need to take care of something tonight." Andrew's hand dropped slightly. A brief pause, then a small nod. His gaze lowered.
"Okay, I understand. Do you need a ride?" "No need. I'll be back as soon as I can." During dinner, Andrew clearly sensed something weighing on Madisyn. But instead of pressing, he quietly moved her favorite dishes closer to her.

"Thank you, dear." After dinner, she drove straight to the Homelight Club, a business under Homelight Enterprise—the perfect place for a discreet meeting. Her encounter with Lilian at the park earlier had been a minor issue. But what their new mission entailed? That was an entirely different game.
The Perkins family had a web of intricate connections.
The Qiviut Organization was dedicated to national and international security. And Madisyn and Wasp were expected to unearth the Perkins family's long-standing Illegal activities and dismantling them, coordinating with the organization and security forces-this wouldn't be easy. A solid strategy was crucial. That was why Madisyn needed to meet with Jared.
Three hours passed in the private lounge, yet their plan still lacked clarity. As they descended the stairs, smen suddenly stepped into their path.
"Mr. Cooper, Miss Perkins would like to see you." Both Madisyn and Jared froze, exchanging a quick glance. Their eyes flicked toward the private room from which men in black had emerged.
Inside, lounging on the sofa, Lilian gazed at them with an unreadable expression, her chin resting lightly on her hand.
Madisyn instinctively wanted to keep Jared away from someone as dangerous as Lilian, but his demeanor had shifted from the first tthey met her. Without hesitation, he stepped forward, distancing himself from Madisyn.

Years of working together meant they didn't need words to communicate-Madisyn understood immediately. Jared was willing to take a risk. Lilian had made the first move by approaching them, so why not turn the situation to their advantage? Still, as Jared disappeared into the private room, unease settled in Madisyn's chest. He had never attempted something like this before. Their missions had always involved combat and strategy-never manipulation through charm.
She stayed put, unwilling to leave.
Lilian was unpredictable, her shifting her temperament shifting without om warning. If anything went wrong, Madisyn had to be ready to act. Jared's decision to step inside pleased Lilian. A slow smirk curved her lips as she raised a brow toward the door.
"What's this? You'd leave your little lover behind just to see me? Aren't you afraid She'll be heartbroken?"
The subtle mockery in her tone didn't go unnoticed. Jared's expression tightened for a fraction of a second before he forced himself to relax.
