Sixth Hoffman was blunt as he began.
Although they had known Jade for quite some time, every time they spoke with her they couldn't help but slow their pace of speech.
It wasn't that they were being distant, it was just that without the boss there, they were afraid of frightening her.
Jade's hand, holding a handkerchief, tightened slightly, "Is it Hannah?"
"Ah..." Even though it wasn't the first time he had heard this nickname, Sixth Hoffman still almost choked on his words.
Nicholas kicked him and warned him with a look not to speak out of turn.
Sixth Hoffman had no choice but to look away.
Nicholas continued, "Here's the thing, Jade, we've just received the latest news that the boss has entered the Blackwood Forest, so we wanted to ask you what you think about it."
Hannah's venture into the Blackwood Forest was of course not as simple as Sixth Hoffman had put it.
Jade looked down and didn't immediately respond, "Sorry, let me think about it."
