Chapter 100

Matthew exuded a deadly presence after hearing Zane's threatening words. Suddenly, the surrounding temperature on the hot beach seemed to have dropped drastically. Zane shuddered in instinctual fear. It felt like a ferocious beast had set its eyes on him. Out of the blue, someone called from a distance, "Hey, what a surprise to see you here." Matthew found the voice familiar and looked over. Was that Alex Miller? The last time Matthew saw Alex was at Opulent Club, where Marty had dragged Alex away. Matthew didn't expect to run into Alex here. But he wasn't close to him in the least, so he just took a glance and then proceeded to ignore Alex. Having seen Alex, Zane quickly stood up—disregarding Matthew. He enthusiastically greeted, "You're a busy man, Mr. Miller. I can't believe I ran into you here. It's an honor." While Zane was talking, he extended his hand for a handshake. Alex asked absentmindedly, "What are you doing here, Zane?" Zane casually offered a cigarette to Alex.
