Because they operated as a private intelligence syndicate, they occasionally brushed against the gray edges of the law, which meant vetting clients was a matter of survival.

"I'm Ethan, and this is my sister, Mira. Rest assured, Mr. Doyle, we have absolutely no intention of causing you any trouble."

Clarence nodded slowly. "The National Academic Laureate and the market oracles. With your status, what kind of business could you possibly have with me?"

"As the saying goes, it's lonely at the top. As our influence continues to expand, the situations requiring your unique expertise will only multiply.

"To be completely transparent, the contract we're offering today isn't massive, but we view it as an opportunity to establish a lasting friendship with you,"

Mira explained smoothly.

"Since you two possess such remarkable foresight, as long as the price is right, I have no qualms about putting my resources at your disposal."

"There's no need for subservience. Everyone has their specialty; we stand on equal footing."

With the pleasantries out of the way, they laid out their exact requirements for the investigation. To demonstrate their sincerity, they paid double the asking price upfront.

He remembered how his daughter, consumed by toxic jealousy toward Mira, had recklessly married the degenerate Lawrence Lance, ruining her entire life.

Even though Mira had eventually stepped in to save the Quinn Group from bankruptcy, they viewed her financial aid as a drop in the bucket compared to the fortune Eleanor had bestowed upon her.

They felt her rescue of the Quinn Group was nothing short of an absolute obligation, and even then, they believed she hadn't done enough.
