Chapter 42 - 42: White Bird Organization’s Elders (1/2)

Gabriel's eyes were covered by the sunglasses so, Yi Fei didn't see his eyes turning to her direction.

If the topic was all about the game, Gabriel simply cannot ignore. Removing his mask he said, ”It's called Mystique. Sis said it's connected to Nightingale.”

Yi Fei tilted her head, unsatisfied with the information. ”That's all she said?”

Gabriel shook his head. ”She was explaining too much so I made her stop. I don't want her to spoil me too much.”

Too modest! You're too modest!

If I was sister-in-law's blood sibling, I....

...I would probably do the same.

Gabriel and Yi Fei sighed.

Inside a dimly lit room, the only thing that illuminates the place is a huge flatscreen TV as it flashed the occupants its contents.

”Mystique skyrocketed the gaming world thanks to everyone, whom contributed their hard work.” Elliot announced and showed them the game's current ratings.

The board softly clapped their hands.

”For celebration, the company will be hosting a party as thanks for everyone's hard work, I hope the esteemed board members will attend as well.” Elliot passed on Lillie's words.

”Of course, Secretary Anderson. Please, send our best regards to CEO Bai and Miss Fujikawa.” A Chinese woman with black hair said, formally.

”CEO Bai is too humble. We all knew she and Miss Fujikawa were the ones whom had the biggest contribution on the game.” A blonde man replied.

The board members were changed since the Zhang Guan incident. Lillie had handpicked everyone very carefully.

Much like Elliot, they are not your ordinary businessmen/women, especially if the She-Devil herself choose them.

(Inside the Lillie's office)

[I didn't expect Mystique to be this popular!] Currently on video call, Haruka was grinning from ear-to-ear when Lillie informed her.

With documents on her grasp, Lillie skimmed through its contents. ”You should believe in my capabilities more often.” If Haruka was drinking something, she would've spit it out directly on her tablet.

How could she forget...being capable is an understatement, she's a monster!

Plus, her being one of the Legendary Mythical Creatures, White Bird, what she is capable of doing...only god knows what! Her power is limitless and yet...Haruka wondered why Lillie would fight Ethan when it came to business when she's already this powerful. Don't be greedy, Lillie!

Haruka ended the call because she didn't know if Lillie was still listening to her.

Elliot had taken care of the board meeting with the new board members. Speaking of board members, those people are Lillie's trusted confidants whom are all members of the White Bird Organization.

Yes, all of them belong to the mafia and Lillie is their boss. She's already their boss in the Underworld and now, she's still their boss in the 'Human Realm'.

Human Realm is what the Underworld call the normal society, while they call themselves dweller of the Demon Realm as they think of themselves as Demons, monsters and etcetera, because they are not good people.

Hey, at least they admit it, right?

The board members and Elliot left the boardroom and went into another room, two floors above the boardroom and just below the floor where Lillie's office was located. This time the place does not have the serious atmosphere but a warm and relaxing one.

The room was bright, it had a large flatscreen TV, couches, tables and refrigerator. If the living room and a kitchen had a baby, it'll be this one.

The board consists of six members, three for both sex. These six, plus Elliot, were the Elders of White Bird Organization, Lillie's most trusted subordinates.
