The discussion about Gun and his men went on with Prapai only listening to whatever information they say, never saying anything or contributing anything even when he was asked.

He knew of Gun, but not the Gun from this world. The Gun he knew was only a lackey of some gang that had a twisted personality which was why it was easy for P'Pakin to make him disappear without a trace. But the Gun from this world is not only from a large Syndicate group but also an heir apparently.

By the first few sentences that were said, Prapai had already got the idea that the Theerapanyakuns are a Mafia Family, and not just any Mafia, they basically represent Thailand's underground world. And he, or rather, Prapai Sailom Theerapanyakun is the heir to its Main Family while Phayu- Venice, his 'cousin', is the heir to the Minor Family which is currently under Vegas Theerapanyakun's command. Prapai is the CEO of Trofi Group, which had the same name as his company in his reality only without all the connections from the underworld. Because here, yes, Trofi Group is a legal business that has its hands in fashion, electronics and real estate, but is also a facade for the Theerapanyakun Empire with their dealings to other countries' Families.

Theerapanyakun is a fearsome name, even normal citizens would have heard of their terrifying might and would think twice about messing with even one of their men. This is what puzzles him, if almost everyone in Thailand knew how fearsome they are, why risk angering the Theerapanyakuns?

This was a question answered, not a minute later when Kim showed them a photo of a mansion that looked too elegant that it's too suspicious for such a Syndicate Family to own.

"This here, is what Prapai had sent a week before the chase." Kim said then clicked once more then another photo showed up. Which made Prapai immediately stand up from where he was sitting, finally giving a reaction after everything they've discussed.

"Pai?" Phayu again called for his attention.

"R-RAIN!" He exclaimed. He can't be mistaken. It was Rain that was shown as one of the people within the mansion. What made him sick was that Rain looked lifeless. He's not his usual sunny self. Then all thoughts were rushing into his brain.

'Why is N'Rain in there? Why does he look like that? Is he with Sky? What the hell is going on?!' His eyes went to Phayu who only looked at the photo, no recognition in his eyes even in the slightest.

'Right, the Phayu I know would have stormed out of this room the moment he saw Rain looking like that. This isn't my bestfriend who's completely smitten and whipped for Rain. This is Venice Theerapanyakun, an heir to a mafia family.'

"Rain? Prapai, it's not raining in the photo nor is it outside." Vegas said exasperated from whatever his nephew had been saying since he woke up the day before.

"No- I-I mean, that! That boy, I know him, his name is Varain, also known as Rain. He's my Sky's bestfriend." He said, explaining that he was actually talking about an actual human being and not the freaking weather.

"So you're saying the sky you've been mentioning since you woke up is an actual name for a real person?" Kinn asked.

"Who is Sky Pai?" Phayu asked, he knew everyone around Prapai and he had never met anyone who goes by Sky.

Phayu stood outside of their family's garage eyeing Prapai, who was looking at his newly restored bike.

"Pai? Can we have a talk?" Phayu called the man, his bestfriend since their Uni days. Prapai only sighed before giving him a nod.

Phayu gestured for them to go upstairs to his personal space in the garage.
