"I don't know what you want to say." Madison looked at Zach with a gloomy voice, "And I don't know what the point of you emphasizing that she is a succubus. Just like I didn't even know what you were at the beginning, I She was just a third-category (special human) alien, a low-level alien who was inexplicably excluded. So, when we met, I didn’t know what she was, but when I found out later, I didn’t care! I don’t know what you want to express!”
Zach raised his eyebrows, "Okay." Mei Yao's name was enough to arouse people's imagination. It seemed that Madison felt that her character was being questioned and was angry. Speaking of which, Zach's expression was bad enough, about the exchange of 'benefits' between men and women...
Zach waved his hand, "Just pretend I didn't ask, then honestly speaking, what do you think of this seductress..."
"Riley!" Madison corrected.
Zach twitched his lips, "Riley. How much do you know about Riley? Since you have decided to start writing in "Urban Legends" under the pen name of 'Zha Yao', and she is the editor, I guess you It must be a work relationship, right?”
"So what." Madison lowered his head again and continued to sign documents.
"So since what you want to write is all your opinion..." Zach's eyes were meaningful, because the two of them had already discussed this issue just now. Even if it was Madison who wrote about Grande's personal affairs, according to Madison's quibbles are all Madison's own opinions and have nothing to do with Zach. "I want to ask, do you believe Mei... Riley, do you want to give her your opinion?"
Madison frowned. Glancing at Zach. A quibble is a quibble, and the facts are still facts. Grande is not very protective of his wife. But obviously he would not be happy to have someone around him who would write about his family affairs as a story. Those who understand, understand. As for those who don’t understand, refer to how Zach read the article in "Urban Legends", which is a joke book.
After thinking for a while, "I believe Riley." Then Madison shook her head and glared at Zach. "This has nothing to do with whether I believe her or not. After I hand it over to her and publish it in a magazine, the people who read it are readers! Is there anything you don't want to be written down or seen by others? That's up to you. The problem!"
Madison's reaction was really quick, and she immediately saw through Zach's tortuous remedy to preserve Grande's dignity.
Zach frowned, it was really bad luck, it was his suggestion to let Madison find some hobbies. Madison was going to write the main character. It was also brought to his face by Zach himself. At this point, the vampires can no longer stop Madison.
"So be it." Zach shook his head, "Finally, I just want to remind you that we have subscribed to "Urban Legends" and I will read it. When you write anything, you should consider my feelings. ?”
In response to this sentence, Madison said "tsk". Made a reply.
"Also, there is one more thing." Zach slowed down. Creating a hesitant tone, "It's still about Riley. Do you know that Riley has encountered a bit of, how should I say, crisis."
"If you mean, Liszt, I know." Madison's face looked a little weird, he twitched his lips, and his tone was a little hesitant, but in front of Zach, it was obvious that he didn't have to hide anything, "The phone call yesterday was Because I knew Liszt was asking for compensation, I called him to inquire, but you completely changed the subject."
Zach ignored Madison's last complaint and was surprised by Madison's statement. He obviously knew about it before he met Riley by chance and was given an ultimatum by the lawyer!
"How do you know? Didn't Riley tell you?" Zach asked.
First he glanced impatiently, and then explained, "Can't you see, the mill is very busy now. I went to Grande yesterday morning to give you...wrong, after giving Louise Herman the plan report on the contract, I didn’t have time to deal with personal matters at all. I only called Riley, but you intercepted it! Please tell me, how did she tell me? "
Zach is a terrible boss. This point no longer needs to be reminded, but it seems that Madison is not ready to let go of every opportunity to hit Zach.
Zach twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Just tell me how you know."
"Leon told me." Madison twisted her chin back and forth and fully expressed her dissatisfaction before speaking, "There is nothing surprising, right? Crowley's people are everywhere, and this time, Liszt's project ..." Madison frowned, as if he was not sure whether his information was accurate, and did not continue.
Zach frowned too, having listened to some of it while outside the door yesterday. The reason why "Urban Legend" is in trouble is actually bad luck - this issue of "Weekly Shopping Guide" under Liszt's name happened to cooperate with the federal formal wear brand 'Kozier' for promotion, which delayed the publication time, leaving Liszt I can't keep my face.
Now it sounds like more information is about to be unearthed...
"Continue." Zach glanced at Madison and ordered.
"Do you know 'Kozir'?" Leon looked at Zach, and continued to sign documents without stopping. It was just a mechanical repetition anyway.
Zach raised his eyebrows and looked down at himself. This meant he was offended. Of course Zach, who likes to dress formally, knew about 'Kozil'. 'Kozil' was named after the surname of the designer Kozier. A famous tailoring family from the western part of the Federation..."
Madison interrupted Zach at this time, "That's what Leon told me. This time the cooperation between Lister and 'Kozier' is to promote the new season products that will be released on Lister Street. If the effect Well, 'Kozil' will settle in Lister and open the first 'Kozil' store in the eastern part of the Federation..."
Zach also interrupted Madison, "You mean the people from the western 'Kozir' will come to Barton, the easternmost Barton? Our place?"
Don't let your thoughts stray too far. What Zach is paying attention to cannot be 'Kozil's' clothes. He already has his own tailor, a mind reader. What Zach cares about is the West.
Think about it, many people have come to Barton from the west, including James Lance, although they are rarely mentioned. But he's from the west. Taylor, obviously, goes without saying. Then Constantine. Don't forget, this is also a demon hunter from the west, including Seth, whose life and death are still unclear, as well as Mason, the container, and Kyle who came back from the west.
"Yes." Madison didn't mind Zach's interruption. He didn't have to emphasize something. "Leon said Crowley was more concerned about anyone from the west anyway. So they kept an eye on Liszt."
"Did Leon say why you care?" Zach was obviously a little anxious.
Madison frowned and shook his head.
"What do you think?" Zach continued to ask.
"Me?" Madison clicked her tongue, her expression hesitant again. "I just feel that people from the west, across the entire federation, who come to Barton..." Madison shook his head. He didn't know how to express it, so he could only list, "James, Seth, and Taylor, they were all in Barton and did, well, a lot of things. They influenced some things."
"You're right, very right." Zach looked away. I signed my name and thought about it for a while. At this moment, this thinking can't go anywhere. I can only watch the subsequent development of events.
Zach waved his hand, "Go on, so you know the crisis Riley is facing, aren't you going to help your new friend?"
"Help? How to help?" Madison gave Zach a bored look, "You can do whatever you want in front of those people, but I don't have that ability."
Zach blinked, was this referring to the fact that he was banned from entering any Liszt property
Zach ignored the sarcasm, "Then you don't know how Riley responds?"
"Is there anything Riley can do?" Madison's expression looked a little hopeful, she glanced at Zach, and then asked. He really didn't know, but he guessed he would like what Zach was going to tell him next, haha.
"Well, yes." Zach raised his eyebrows and used a special sentence, "She decided to use her ability as a charming demon to get the compensation that Liszt asked for."
Madison's brows were already furrowed.
"The target is Bishop." Zach took a sip, "I won't say that I helped her make this decision, but I must admit that I gave her good advice."
Madison was silent for a while and then pressed the signed documents in front of him onto the pile of documents next to him. "As long as she has a way, that's what she has to deal with at work!" He glared at Zach, "Just the same as I also have my own troubles to deal with at work! You don’t have to tell me specifically!"
Zach raised his eyebrows, "Actually, I need it." Zach's face looked a little helpless, "I just learned some bad news, and I was thinking that since you are her friend, you should have the responsibility to remind her ,Right."
"Whatever happened, just tell me directly!" Madison's mood was obviously still because of Mei, and Yao was somewhat affected.
"It's about Bishop." Zach turned back, looked at the closed office door, and listened to the noisy outside, where Leon and Brian were, "It seems that you have gotten along with Leon very naturally, the devil's thing , will he share it with you?"
"Tsk!"
Zach has this problem. He seems to never know the meaning of 'speaking directly' in his consciousness.
"Uh." Zach turned back and looked at Madison's irritated look, "Okay, I just want to tell you that you are in a good position. You are a part of Grande, and you have Leon by your side. The news will all come to you, and then you can organize it and pass it to Riley with your own opinions. I didn't mean to say it in such a bad way. It's obvious that you trust Riley, so I won't say anything more. But sometimes I, Grande, and the demons miss things."
"What does this have to do with Riley!" Madison asked unhappily.
"I can imagine how Riley made a judgment and chose Bishop as her target." Zach insisted on following his own pace. Faced with Madison's irritated face, he still said unhurriedly, "The West District can There are not many candidates who fall under the 'control' of Mei Yao, either too old or too young. Those in the middle are suitable for Mei Yao's ability range, and among them, the situation in the Bishop family makes him the most suitable person."
Madison twitched her lips.
What Zach means is that if there is anyone in the West End who is most easily 'submitted' by women, it is Bishop.
"Grande has also been involved in some recent matters regarding Bishop, such as Jackson's funeral, and the rift between the couple has been very obvious. There is nothing to admit, I have been avoiding contact with Bishop recently. "For example, what happened at Herman's banquet, in order to avoid Bishop, Zach and Boyson met.
"As for the devil, I think you also know that Crowley was warned by Grande once because of her soul contract with Hailey. After that, I forced Mike to find Jackson. Once again, the release is a signal to keep the demons away from Bishop." Zach paused, "What I want to express is that for Bishop, your source of information has been cut off."
Madison frowned, he didn't like the way Zach spoke. Madison has never asked for any source of information, and he does not intend to do something to bring order to things like Zach to "find a sense of existence." Most of the time, he just passively listens to what others say about many things, and then thinks about them by himself, talks about them as gossip to friends, and practices writing in writing.
"You don't have to be offended." Zach waved his hand, "Riley has already expressed to me her idea of using the West Enders like Grande. Whether you like it or not, Bishop was obviously started by Riley. first step."
Zach glanced at Madison, "I asked you before, you are providing benefits to Riley, but Riley doesn't seem to be giving you anything in return. Don't deny it, a lot of the information you have no intention of telling her is just to help her. Make the decision now.”
Madison remained silent, he really couldn't deny it.
"Since you have fully expressed that you don't care about this way of being friends, then I will let you." Zach tilted his head, "It's the same now, I'm about to tell you something that Grande and the devil have missed. If you tell Riley the news, you will definitely help her. If you don’t tell her, no one will blame you. Do you want to listen?"
You know what Zach is going to say, it's Mrs. Bishop, that is, Ms. Sher, who is no longer a human being and has turned into a 'thing' that can talk to Jackson and push him out of the manor.
The rift in the Bishop family was obviously the decisive reason why Riley decided to take advantage of Bishop. However, this is no longer a crack, but a half-collapsed cliff. When Riley made the decision, there was no news from the devil and no news from Grande. It was a complete coincidence that Zach learned about it.
No one knows about Bishop's situation now! As a foreigner, Riley should make adjustments to her decisions or actions.
"Say!" Madison thought for a while and made a decision.
"I'm certain that Mrs. Bishop has become a vicious spirit. If Riley recklessly does something in Bishop with her succubus power, she will commit suicide," Zach said. (..)
