Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 2421

The black Rolls-Royce roared to life, and the door swung open as someone climbed inside. The window rolled down, and the man inside exchanged a few more words with someone outside. Only then did the Rolls-Royce slowly pull away, heading toward the other end of the alley.

Inside the car, in the back seat. A pair of polished leather shoes, gleaming without a single raindrop or speck of dust, was casually crossed. The Rolls-Royce had an incredibly spacious interior.

The man in the back not only had his long legs crossed but was also lounging lazily with his arm resting on the center console.

"Mr. Horton, are we heading to Mr. Vazquez's place, or going home?" the driver asked from up front.

Jaden replied flatly, "Go to Mr. Vazquez's first. Remember, from now on, every single day before I go home, I'll be stopping by to visit him. It's the rule, so don't ask me such pointless questions again."

The driver secretly wiped away a cold sweat and promised, "Yes, sir."

Working for someone like Jaden had its perks; status and money were never a problem. However, the pressure was suffocating because there was no room for mistakes.

Jaden was Guillermo's right-hand man, constantly busy with tasks that all seemed too important to mess up. The driver and others like him could never afford to slack off.

After all, Guillermo was practically a god among men.

It was drizzling outside, and the narrow alley was dark as death, no streetlights, just a faint glow leaking in from the main road. Out of nowhere, someone had stepped in front of the car, and the driver reacted on instinct, slamming the brakes hard.
