"Who's there?" Chase immediately started struggling in his attacker's grip, and elbowed the person hard.

"Calm down, it's just me." Renee awkwardly removed her hand from the man's eyes and rubbed her aching

stomach." I was just messing with you! I didn't expect that you’d be so skilled at martial arts-that elbow of yours

nearly killed me!"

"Oh, it's you, Miss Everheart! I'm so sorry, please punish me as you see fit." Chase lowered his head guiltily, about

to kneel. He was wearing a white suit, which made him look gentle and elegant.

"Please don't. You don't have to be so careful in front of me, I'm not like my brother." Renee glanced at Quinton's

bedroom, then quietly asked, "Is my brother asleep?"

"Yes, Miss Everheart."

"Let's go and grab a bite then."

"Miss Everheart, we can't. You're my superior, so how-"

"Chase, I told you before that I'm not my brother. Let's go.” Renee dragged him to a street nearby that was full of

hawker stalls.

"Sir, we'd like to order burgers, chips, and two dozen beers!" She casually shouted at the owner who was busy

cooking.

"Sure, please wait a moment," the man called back while tending to his stove.

This was the messiest and most chaotic place in Beach City. Many gangsters frequented the place, and the place

was always crowded until dawn. People were playing drinking games, clinking their glasses, and cursing

endlessly. The atmosphere was wild, lively, and very inviting.

Chase was rather rigid at first, being polite and respectful to Renee. However, after a few beers, he started to relax

and open up. "Miss Everheart, let me be frank with you... I've been wanting to eat here for many years, but as the

main attendant of Carmine Pawnshop, I was hesitant to do so. You've helped me fulfil my wish today, and I'm very

grateful forthat."

"Heh, you flatter me. Just tell me if you want to eat this kind of food next time. Ignore my brother; if he dares to

scold you, I'll scold him back on your behalf!" Renee declared.

"Haha! Miss Everheart, you're so nice. Although you're my boss' sister, you're both so different. He leads a very

conservative life, which is really quite pitiful." Chase took a sip of his beer, staring off into the distance sadly.

When Renee saw Chase let down his guard, she carefully asked, "Chase, I heard from my brother that you were the

one who founded his business with him. Both of you came out of that small fishing village and established Carmine

Pawnshop together, right?"
