"When did you arrive?" Elaenor Wood sized up Julius Reed, who was also masked, his white paper fan flapping incessantly in his hand.
At this moment, Elaenor's identity was the Ghost Market's head chief steward.
The plan to assassinate Xander Cook was a joint agreement between Hagan Marsh and Lord Ghost Seven.
Of course, Lord Ghost Seven would never personally show up for this matter.
The one responsible for negotiating was Elaenor Wood.
If Hagan Marsh met with mishap, Lord Ghost Seven wouldn't worry about the plan being exposed.
After all, he was conveniently drinking with the City Lord at the City Lord's Mansion during Hagan Marsh's visit to the Ghost Market.
All blame would fall squarely on Elaenor Wood.
Elaenor, however, could switch identities again, and through the Ghost Market's maneuvering, remain completely risk-free.
The unlucky ones would either be Xander Cook or Hagan Marsh.
The Ghost Market would profit without loss.
After all, they're business people.
