Corinne worshiped Ghostlord since she was young. This coupled with her sympathy for him as a fellow in arms made it impossible for her to leave him to the wolves. However, she had no idea how she was going to carry the drunk and heavy out of the venue.

After taking a deep breath, she got down to work. She put his arms around her shoulder and slowly dragged his body out of the club. A trail of whispers followed her but she could not care less what the others were saying about her and Ghostlord.

Corinne was rife with exhaustion after finally getting Ghostlord to the parking lot. The driver got down from the car to help her and it took two of their combined efforts to shove the six feet three inches man into the car.

After getting into the car, the driver turned around and asked her respectfully, "Miss Corinne, where do you want to go now?"

Corinne panting heavily by then. She turned to look at the sleeping man beside her and said with resignation, "Xante has already booked me a hotel room, right? Let's go there first." "Yes, Miss Corinne."

At the most famous five-star hotel in Kanton City.

The driver helped Corinne carry Ghostlord into the elevator, then her suite, and then finally into her bed.

"Miss Corinne, can I help you with anything else?" asked the driver.

"No, that will be all. Thanks for your hard work." Corinne waved her hand to dismiss the driver.

Only she and Ghostlord were left in the room. She looked at the drunk masked man on the bed and felt conflicted. Logically speaking, they were not close so it was more than enough for her to bring him to the hotel. She should just leave him alone and wait somewhere else for him to wake up and get home by himself.

However, she was worried he would suddenly throw up. He did have a lot to drink and there was a chance he might choke on his vomit since he was very, very drunk. If that were to happen, the blood would be on her hand since she was the one who brought him to the hotel. It would be worse if the police were involved since it would mean both of their hacker identities would be exposed.

'Ahh, what should I do? I think I should just wait here for him to wake up in case anything happens.' She was massaging her temples when a sudden thought occurred to her.

She walked slowly to the bed and stared at the mask on Ghostlord's face as though she was in a trance. Then, before she knew what she was doing, she reached out her hand. 'I have been given this chance by heaven itself!' thought Corinne.

Yes! She was thinking of taking off Ghostlord's mask. 'This is it. This is my chance to find out who he is.'

Suddenly, her phone rang.

The moment was gone. She fished out her phone and saw it was Xante calling her. She turned around and walked some distance away before answering the call. "What's up, Xante?"

"Boss, a

"Nope. I
