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!”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOVx53MeMB
“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.”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtb64H2fw5
“No,” a man with brown, curly hair chirped, “we’re not actually. We already know why we’re here.”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAel2wOs1s
“Yeah, we’re here to discuss how to assassinate the Boss’s daughter,” another man added.

Anna stifled a loud cackle. Oh dear, what kind of shit-show has she walked into this time?
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiAM9mtfQd
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?
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FT1rR5fJg
“No, no, let’s just get a sniper to do the job for us! We can pay the sniper a nice price!”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDCsDFXpr7
“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!”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUeqBptpxX
Ah, so this man is the brain cell of the group.
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3M5kNB4KR
“Then you tell us how to do it smartass!”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwE0ue1XN7x
“Fine, I will!” the man returned, glaring at the others. “We should just kill her in the meeting with the Boss!”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdUQFg5Tcz
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.
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKH6IzfJJQ
“That’s even worse than what we said!”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2LyGzUnPg
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?”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFO46fpkTq
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.
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3rGrSsuF2c
“It’s nothing much but. . .” she trailed off, sounding hesitant, though she was grinning evilly inside.
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJwoa5P9ho
“Go on then, we don’t have all day!” Max -the curly, brown-haired one- snapped.
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRqkwCgaC8
“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.”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOTnqXi6dgy
Max hummed. “Not bad for a woman,” he muttered.
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTK5W7AGHn
Anna’s left eye twitched slightly. She made a mental note to make him have the most painful death.
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1JpGNsXZZ
“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!”
313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtrMkizTAi
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.
