Cassian and another man emerged from the apartment building when a figure hurriedly approached them.
“Mr. Maddox.”
Nicole Donovan boldly blocked Theo Maddox at the entrance, pulling out a bank card. “Mr. Maddox, I need you to handle a case for me. There’s a hundred million in here–all yours.”
Nicole looked at Theo with complete confidence. Nobody could refuse that kind of money.
Theo raised an eyebrow but didn’t immediately agree. Instead, he glanced toward Cassian.
Cassian said nothing, just stared at Theo intently.

Cassian shook off Jasper’s grip and continued toward the station.
“Ooh, he knows Director Fury,” Theo said mockingly. “Maybe you should hand over your wife? That way you won’t have to family drama.”
