Chapter 2148
Waylon did not say anything in return.
It was about eight after they finished their breakfast, and Waylon went into Sunny’s study
room to talk to him about something.
Sunny was writing something in front of his desk. He said, “Nollace has found something.
Donald has been dealing with Buchanon in private as well.”
Standing by the window, Waylon said, “According to Saydie, Buchanon has been working for
Fabio for ten years. He has been taking charge of the Parkin Chamber of Commerce, and he
is Fabio’s most valuable assistant.”
He nodded. “Buchanon is a slick person. He knows when to retreat, and he’s afraid of death.
Although Fabio doesn’t trust him very much, he’s fine with him taking care of his stuff.”
“I guess Buchanon must be alerted by that batch of counterfeit liquor. He’s worried that
Fabio might really kill him one day.” Waylon turned around to look at Sunny. “That’s why he
approached Donald in the hope of looking for a new way out.”
Sunny put down his pen and raised his head. With a smile on his face, he said, “Now we can
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtonly count on Nollace and see if he can get anything from Buchanon. He has been working
for Fabio for so many years, so he must know a lot of his secrets.”
Waylon looked at the pen on the desk, and it took him a long while before he asked the
question, “Mr. Southern Sr., there’s one thing I would like to ask you. What do you like about
me?”
Sunny was stunned for a moment. He raised his head to meet his gaze. Waylon’s eyes were
clear, but his gaze was piercing. Even though there were some unreadable emotions in his
eyes, Sunny’s heart still skipped a beat when he met his gaze.
Sunny decided not to lie to him and chuckled. “You already know about it?”
Waylon lowered his head and said, “I’m sorry. You and Daisie aren’t good actors, so I have
been suspecting it for a long while.”
“Well, it’s true that I have that intention,” Sunny replied straightforwardly. “After all, it’s rare
for me to come across a young man as smart and tactful as you are. You’re even better
than me when I was young.”
Waylon shook his head helplessly. “You’ve flattered me, Mr. Southern Sr.”
Sunny sat on the chair and said, “I’m not exaggerating. I’m very good when it comes to
reading people. Of course, I’m not going to force you or Cameron. I’ll let nature take its
course.
What Sunny did not say was that love could be developed as time went on.
He was not going to force Waylon as he was worried that he might scare him off. He was
going to use the boiling the frog tactic, and he was confident that the things between
Waylon and Cameron would work out somehow.
“Mr. Southern Sr.!”
Mahina rushed into the study.
Waylon and Sunny turned their heads to look at her. Before she could catch her breath, she
said, “Something happened to Mateo!”
Sunny’s face sank. “What happened?”
“I just received news that Mateo had been missing for two days. Joaqin sent a team to look
for him, and someone found a headless corpse in the woods. The corpse is wearing the
clothes that Mateo was wearing that day.” Mahina took a deep breath. “I’m afraid it’s done

At the Southwest Villas…
Gail entered the living room with a black plastic bag. Other than the bodyguards, the rest of
the people, including Buchanon, were looking at her.
She tossed the black plastic bag on the floor, and Buchanon nearly wet his pants when he
saw what was inside the plastic bag. He fell to the floor and stammered, “It… It’s a head.”
Fabio glanced at the terrified Buchanon and snorted. “Stop being so dramatic. It’s just a
head.” A bodyguard picked Buchanon up from the floor. His face was pale and bloodless as
he looked at the expressionless Gail.
The air was pervaded with the smell of blood. Everyone fell silent as they could feel a chill
down their spines when they saw the head that had a grotesque expression.
Fabio picked up the cup. Apparently, he was not affected. He lifted his eyelids and chuckled.
Well done, Gail.”
Gail lowered her head. “It took me two days to locate him. I’m sorry for the delay.”
“It’s fine. The most important thing is that you’ve completed your mission.” Fabio waved his
hand and commanded his bodyguard to take the head away. He rose to his feet and walked
up to Gail. Putting his hand on her shoulder, he said, “Huntley has told me a lot about you.
You indeed didn’t fail your reputation as the Black Widow.”
