"CEO Diana, If you are free why don't you and your sister join us for breakfast, your chef makes one of the best bacon I have ever eaten."

Lately, I have developed a habit of using my soul pupils to scan every place I visit. With recent a.s.sa.s.sination attempts on my life, I found myself doing this more than usual. Though circle still did not see me as a threat and underestimated me, Sansa Baylor was h.e.l.l-bent on erasing my existence. She didn't hesitate to send 3 dozen of Card Emperor to kill me, so yes my actions couldn't be considered an overreaction.

So when Jaya lead me into the veranda I had already spotted the mechanism Diana had placed to spy on my conversation with Cindy. I didn't like Diana eavesdropping, I could have called her out sooner but I didn't because Cindy wanted Diana to eavesdrop on over conversation.

No, Cindy did not say this to me but it was obvious. Cindy has worked for Diana for years. She knew what Diana was capable of, especially in the Fine Gold compound. Yet, she chooses such a conspicuous place for our meeting, this meant that she wanted Diana to hear in on over conversation. She wanted to give Diana the courtesy of knowing that she was planning to switch sides. But the question here was why did I come to this conclusion? Did Cindy already know that I would find out someone was eavesdropping on us? Was this all part of Cindy's elaborate plan? If yes then what was she up to?

From the movement I knew somebody was eavesdropping on us, I had my super brain card a.s.sisted by my three slave consciousnesses and Hive AI to hack into the spying device and Cindy's grimoire. It took a while but the super brain card finally gave me the answers I was searching for. Since it was the compound of the Fine Gold it was given that Diana was spying on us, I didn't need a super brain card to tell me that but it was a.s.suring to know that I was right. As for Cindy, the super brain gave me a lot of intimate details about her making it hard for me to look her in the eyes especially when I knew that Cindy was not playing any games, she was but not with the intent I thought she was. Yet, it was good to know that Cindy was hundred percent on my side.

"Sorry boss, if I have offended you with my actions. Diana has been my mentor and friend for years, I could not leave her side just like that. I hate goodbyes so like the coward I am I had to choose this method." Cindy wasn't surprised that I called Diana out for spying on our conversation instead she apologized to me for involving me in her matters.

"I can understand, but if you pull such a stunt again I will not be this understanding. And Don't act humble, I know this is your way of a.s.suring me that you were 200 percent on my side." Cindy went on to complain about Diana to me despite knowing that she was eavesdropping on us for three reasons,

First, Out of consideration for her years of friends.h.i.+p and mentors.h.i.+p under Diana, she wanted to let Diana know that she had already switched sides.

Second, to a.s.sure me that she had broken all ties with Diana and from now on she would be loyal to me and me alone. What would be the better way to a.s.sure your new boss you are loyal to him but not the old boss? Badmouthing the old boss to the new boss in front of the old boss is what Cindy just did.

Third, to test me. Yes, she wanted to test how emotionally mature her high schooler boss was. He was a man with great abilities and mind but was he emotionally mature enough to handle the tense situations calmly. Or was he just another genius teenager who lets the soup of hormones in his body do the important decisions? Instead of his mind.

"Haha, so boss you had already figured it out. Honestly, boss I was surprised by your reaction, I thought you would flip the moment you discovered that device but you held back and let me say my goodbyes and let me prove my loyalty to you, thank you, boss. It seems I didn't overestimate you and made the correct choice" Cindy thanked and praised me for not blowing off over the Diana eavesdropping ordeal.

"Don't mention it. But next time you test me be ready to face the consequence. And how did you know that Aura sight can discover hidden mechanisms?" I figured Cindy was so confident that I would be able to find the spy device because of my origin card aura sight.

"Boss, Mrs. Wyatt, was a renowned pathfinder, she could spot tarps and ambush from miles away in instant. So, you who had inherited her origin card would be no different." Cindy answered and then added, "Boss, if you are done with the breakfast, I have prepared a meeting hall to talk about the main agenda, I promise you will not find any surprises there."

"Don't worry I have taken care of the device and let's wait for CEO Diana and Miss Jaya." I knew that Cindy planned to take me to a separate meeting hall where she had made sure that no one could eavesdrop on over conversation as I a.s.signed her the task that I spoke of in the call earlier. Cindy had made all the preparations accordingly I commend her for that. But this was not enough for Cindy to prove to me that she was loyal to me yet she had managed to prove to me that I had chosen a capable person to lead the sales of the Slime Fairy card collection.
