Chapter 549: To Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire

Having eaten a sumptuous home-cooked dinner prepared by Inger, Zachary headed to his bedroom. He was soon in autopilot mode, packing his luggage for the following day's trip to Côte d'Ivoire, calling Emily Anderson, his agent, going through a relaxing therapeutic yoga routine, and washing up.

He finished everything he had planned to do by 8:30 PM and then made his way back to the living room. After picking a glass of water from the fridge, he settled into a sofa facing the TV screen to follow the game between Cesena and AS Roma, the second-placed team after Juventus on top of the Italian Serie A table.

That match that could determine whether Juventus would win the Serie A title much earlier than expected kicked off at 8:45 PM. AS Roma, which happened to be the team that wished to stop Juventus from widening the gap at the top of the table, was the first to settle down in the game.
