"Lucy just messaged saying how she checked and other than us, there is only one more group who also got this email while the rest don't have this last line written in them and that other group is the one which is the oldest one and knows about the true colours of the organisation."
Iris explained
"They're trying to separate the good and the bad. Just what is he playing at?"
Logan muttered
"Who is this Rikky Wilder anyway? I heard some girls fawning over him which made me question, isn't he an old fat middle age man?"
Logan starts laughing at Iris's comments
"What? Why are you laughing?"
"Just what kind of image do you have in mind? He is only 27 years old, you know."
Logan replies chuckling, scrolling down his phone
"Huh? 27?! You serious?"
Iris exclaims in shock
"Yeah, see...."
Logan then shows her the image. There was a guy wearing formal clothing and black sunglasses. From his figure and facial features he did look quite young than Iris thought.
"That means he is only 3 years older than us."
Iris remarked
"Us? What do you mean us? I am a year older than you, you know."
Logan replied. He was checking his emails on his phone.
"What?!"
"Why are you acting so surprised? I thought you already knew that I am 25."
Logan shrugged, without looking away from his phone
"No, I did not know! This is the first I am hearing about it. I assumed you were of the same age group."
Iris retorted with surprise
"Your fault for assuming the wrong thing. Now that you know I am your senior, you should respect me!"
Logan smirked, he was joking
"Whatever. Being one year older doesn't make that much of a difference."
Iris scoffed and then questioned,
"Hey, have you ever met Rikky?"
"Well...he was my senior at high school."
"Wait! How come you never told us this before?"
Iris asked. She was surprised at how many surprises she were getting today.
Logan simply shrugs in response.
"Right, I get it. We never asked that's why you never told us. So, were you guys close?"
"I wouldn't exactly call us being close. He was more close with Duncan than me but since Duncan was my friend, we all would often hangout together."
Logan replied. Before Iris could say anything, he adds,
"What in the...."
Logan's eyes go round as he reads the email he just got.
"What?"
Iris inquired, moving closer to take a proper look at his phone when he turns his phone slightly so that she could see properly. He then starts reading the mail out loud,
Respected Mr. Logan Wilson,
You are humbly requested to attend the annual dinner of The Mercurial as this year's Chief Guest. You have helped us a lot over the last two years and it would be a honour for us to have you with us that night. Along with you there will be one other Chief Guest. The venue is the top floor of the main centre at 9:00 p.m. on this coming Saturday. I really look forward to meeting you. Please note that there will be a special announcement made by me after which I ask that you stay. I hope you have a great time. See you then.
Yours truly,
The Chairman of The Mercurial
Rikky Wilder"Holy crap! You got an invitation directly from the guy himself!"
Iris exclaimed
"But why? He even invited me as a chief guest!"
Logan added
"Just what is he planning?"
Iris mumbled, glancing at the mail.
"Guess we will find out on the said day."
Logan states
