Upon hearing about Horace’s death, Aldus felt a mix of emotions.

Over the years, Horace had been by Theodore’s side as an invaluable assistant and someone who had earned Theodore's trust. He had always been there for Theodore regardless of danger.

Aldus trusted Horace completely. He believed that Horace was the one driving the car when Horace was with Theodore, but he couldn't fathom how such a serious accident could have occurred under Horace's watch.

“Horace was in the front seat at the time of the accident. Although the airbag deployed to reduce the impact, shards of glass flew into his head and body, causing critical injuries," the subordinates said, visibly pained.

Aldus let out a heavy sigh and said, "Make funeral arrangements for Horace and provide more assistance to his family." With a heavy tone, he added, "I'm getting old. I can't bear witnessing these tragedies anymore."
