Chapter 243: Only for You
This time, Elias was not lying.
The moment Liora's favorability rose to ninety-nine percent, he knew she would want to see him. Liora had never been simple about desire. She watched first, stayed outside the frame, and acted only after she had decided that what she wanted was worth stepping into the mess for.
Ninety-nine percent was not a casual number.
It meant that one last push would finish the job.
And what did that final step usually require?
Elias had not needed System Theta to explain it.
That was why he had gone out.
The small sealed box in his hand had been bought with the fifty dollars he had taken from Marlene. It was a ridiculous expense for a person who claimed to be broke, but a mission target at ninety-nine percent was not the time to economize.
Why had he never needed one with the others, yet bought one for Liora?
Because it amused him.
