Anna watched as the doors of the elevator were about to close when suddenly a man was running towards the direction of the elevator.

“Wait, hold on!” the man yelled. Anna frowned and stepped forward, holding the doors open as the man barrelled into the small space, almost knocking over another man in the elevator.

“You alright there?” Anna asked, placing a steady hand on the man’s shoulder.

“Who, me?” the man said, gesturing to himself. “Oh, um, yeah, thank you!”
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEIHtXuhss
“No problem,” she replied with an amused smile. “You seem to be in a rush.” Anna leaned against the clean, cold steel of the elevator.

The man chuckled nervously, a bead of sweat trailed down his forehead as he pressed the button for the highest floor. “Oh, stop pretending you don’t know me!”

Anna raised an eyebrow. She obviously didn’t know the man. But hey, she was the daughter of the Mafia Boss, and she was always taught to go with the flow. She watched with a narrowed gaze as the man turned around, his eyes darting back and forth at the other men in the elevator.

“Now,” the man said, releasing a heavy exhale, though the tension still remained on his shoulders, “you must be wondering why I brought you here.”
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDmBYfKCB3
“No,” a man with brown, curly hair chirped, “we’re not actually. We already know why we’re here.”
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD15r898xnc
“Yeah, we’re here to discuss how to assassinate the Boss’s daughter,” another man added.
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJzvbqtcje
Anna stifled a loud cackle. Oh dear, what kind of shit-show has she walked into this time?
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3EjDXm6Lp
The men clearly didn’t know who she was and Anna wasn’t surprised. Her identity was always kept a secret. Some didn’t even know she existed, which was why Anna was impressed that these men knew about her. It was crucial to keep her hidden as she is the next heir to inherit the leadership of the mafia. And her concealed identity was pretty useful. For example, her current situation, spying on moles in the business.

“Well, how are we going to do it?” a man questioned. He was tall. Even taller than Anna. And Anna was very tall.

“Should we sneak into her room and kill her in her sleep?” one suggested. She had to bite her lip to control her hysterical laughter. Did they honestly think she can be so easy to eliminate?
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRMext7FmQ
“No, no, let’s just get a sniper to do the job for us! We can pay the sniper a nice price!”
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlM5aUXpAqG
“Oh, you bunch of idiots! Have you lost your nuts?” one of the men yelled, exasperated. “It won’t be so easy to get her out of the equation so easily!”
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Y7AsMLrE9
Ah, so this man is the brain cell of the group.
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkck9uRa4b6
“Then you tell us how to do it smartass!”
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6H8paVx3w
“Fine, I will!” the man returned, glaring at the others. “We should just kill her in the meeting with the Boss!”
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnW2cfWCsf
Nevermind, he’s dumb too. Anna distantly noted that they were all high-class men. One, they knew about her. Two, they were important enough to attend a meeting with her father.
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvd4tcczUsZ
“That’s even worse than what we said!”
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcgPAd3ohJ
A few moments later and Anna had unshed tears in her eyes and her cheeks were flushed from trying to control herself from dropping to the floor and laughing to death. She listened to them argue back and forth until she decided to join the fun herself.

“Um, guys?” she said, trying to grab their attention amidst the loud arguing. “Can I suggest something?”
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4yjUE2yO7
The men turned to her in surprise, as if noticing her for the first time.

“Spill the milk,” Jonathan -the man she held the elevator for- said.
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaJ3c30yDp
“It’s nothing much but. . .” she trailed off, sounding hesitant, though she was grinning evilly inside.
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡey8toIzbEJ
“Go on then, we don’t have all day!” Max -the curly, brown-haired one- snapped.
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ctevbgrk9
“How about we ask someone else to place a bomb in her car? That way if the Boss ever finds out his daughter’s car was bombed then the blame would go that someone and not us. It’s quick and it’s safe.”
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfak60oCeeK
Max hummed. “Not bad for a woman,” he muttered.

Anna’s left eye twitched slightly. She made a mental note to make him have the most painful death.
409Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81pZxZlgdU
“Guess we’ll just have to do what the lady suggested then,” the tall man said. Anna had yet to know his name. She’s going to have to do some background checks on him.

As the elevator reached the highest floor, the men shook each other’s hands, as if they were doing some important business. She snorted in her head. A pathetic bunch of fools, that’s what they were. Eventually, all the men got out of the elevator except for one. Jonathan raised his hand towards her, expecting a handshake. She crossed her arms and stared down at it, unimpressed. The man coughed awkwardly and shoved his hand in his pocket.

“G-Good day then, Miss. . .?” Jonathan questioned. Anna kept on silently staring at him. She wondered if it must be exhausting to be so embarrassing. “I-I’ll just leave then!”

The man hopped out of the elevator, speed-walking away from her line of sight.

She chuckled as the doors of the elevator closed, descending downwards. She had bought a new set of daggers from Tokyo last week. She couldn’t wait until she got those pretty, silver blades turning red, dripping with the blood of those men.
