“Angel just ruined everything for me,” said Leo as he300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWQlUTtcPK
came to stand next to Eric by the bar counter.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zdTPoYcXI

“Carly and I were supposed to run away together, but it’s like she caught on to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiOh6RpbvH
us.” Leo shook his head. “That’s why she stayed behind with Carly. She says she300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcqk0wXcPt
doesn’t want Marco to suspect anything.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvZVrKR6mg

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCf6X0P8Lb2
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnVuhpII0s
Eric shrugged his shoulders. “Angel does have a point,” he said. “We don’t need300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawKBWMx6H4
Marco knowing that the two of you are dating. He might tell his father, who, in300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9C6jDovc5U

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1dmOhx178b

Leo sighed. “You do have a point.” He turned to his cousin. “Go on. I know you300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqRdXo49L4
want to say it.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6cTt83ooS

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlq5Z3xc9Ga
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCer4KsYo7

Eric looked at Leo, this time with a beaming smile on his face. “Of course,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjmVE4DbcF
because that’s just how she is.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPqWRdzsKx
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yMstJIaxy
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NK68FKbzV
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4GPZnwuhU
“Can you stop smiling like that?” Leo looked irritated. Eric’s smile shone300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtjB08CpxZ
brightly like the sun. Leo felt blinded as he turned to look away. “You’ve had300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjrexVKW4d

you the same thing, but it slipped my mind. It’s good that Angel thought way300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVrvc8nRHi

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpnC80TLmS

Leo felt dumb. None of that came to mind, and he felt like slapping himself for300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG24ejSFNXn
being so stupid and careless. He hoped Marco wasn’t paying enough attention at300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSQA6JSQsb
first for him to realize there was anything between him and Carly. It seems he300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtbCRXkeyF
has Angel to thank, but Leo was too embarrassed to think of doing so.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewUBxSEpMH

Leo left the counter and found Carly where he had left her. She was slowly300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLJ3LwbwcN
looking around, taking in the view of the place. There were bright bulbs300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMl5sgf2wRI
hanging over the area, and she apparently stood out with her beautiful dress.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSBJFGl0c2
If they weren’t around so many people, he wasn’t going to hesitate to kiss and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JcUGUYzyq
caress her. He smiled at her instead and gestured with his head to her, saying300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9zDvz3fEq
that they should join Angel and the others.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WVK2nWw3o

Trina and Kim stood by the fountain as they watched Leo approach the table300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBewhBUeDn1
where Angel, Oliver, and the Asian man sat. Carly joined him soon afterwards.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEB5zMbWjFU

“How long do you think we’ll stay here until he decides to see his lover?”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0l6R6ukoKm

“Good idea. Let’s wait for Eric at the counter. Leo looks like he’s checking to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLA3tUHBQPe

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡja1bXKKTfF
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhBiuLhrgX
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObOKrm4kLQ
Kim agreed with Trina. They continued to watch Leo as he made his way back to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamDEGdx87I
the counter.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcKXKbgcAn

Meanwhile, Miranda, who had been watching over the balcony, followed Leo’s300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdglhLOPVfc
movements. She kept telling herself that she needed to get down there. If she300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzYxv5p1Fl
so much as stepped out of the room, no doubt Red Lion would have her head, and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AQUkR4O09
whatever the meeting was all about, she wasn’t going to be a part of it.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZtOsAdOKl
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyYAIQoMYV
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPiO7TPvMZ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQvJQXEfDV
She huffed. If that was the consequence, she was going to have to deal with it.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1pTEvEqFn
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4yfOVUW38
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmD2Pbglso
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWmtFNO872
Without giving much of a second thought, Miranda turned around and went back300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkG5FxaCOr
inside the room. The football game they were watching was on a half-time break,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mcXg9Wudu
and the three men were there, talking aloud about the game. She approached300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCFuQxe69I
them, and to get their attention, she loudly cleared her throat.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kAj92vRM6
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3VJywkWTE
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2ZVD6yqDJ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP39Yyw1Mcp
The three men all stopped talking and turned to look at Miranda. For a moment,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsUbQpUiNkk
she gulped as her eyes landed on the terrifying face of Red Lion, who didn’t300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0W7x22J8f
like the fact that she had disturbed them. She had to be quick with what she300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGk7qPCbyr
wanted to say, as she was running on Red Lion’s patience.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ih47kMQCj
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvi6Xo1hXSe
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfcY81V1dx
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRuewvJ9ze
“I’ll be stepping out for a bit,” Miranda announced.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoGdMwZmgQ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2jk2Q0wbq
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhol3yRQfop
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8Y2ZG6C51
There was a brief silence in the room as the three men continued to look at300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxteKeJ7QZ9
Miranda, expressionless. Red Lion moved in his seat, and Miranda feared that he300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuW2KvIvEi
would speak first.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3toQvvqX2

“I don’t think going out is the best thing to do right now,” he said. “We’re300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCCFHaveOS

“Yeah, we are, but this person isn’t showing up anyway. You’ll let me know when300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfv7mlFNsc

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBRKnCwNb0
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPO9hswrKx
Red Lion continued to look at her. Walters now had a scared look on his face.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmLEZ55YQS
He wished he could intervene, but things haven’t escalated between the two, so300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48Ma9aNLjw
it was hopeless to do so.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxvg0gfDfA
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIAJWbi6w4
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0pTWRN128
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBkWijMHv3
“Whatever,” said Red Lion as he leaned back on the couch. “You get back here in300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzb7MA4LbeY
thirty minutes. If our host gets here before you, you better hurry back when300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hKxYtGgV1
Walters calls.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdbGHumZzP
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATgaiCNs8P
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0A2JQwdMu
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GZ4KYp9JU
Miranda felt relieved. She thought she wasn’t going to be let go so easily.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2imkqnuSMN
Moreover, the time Red Lion gave her was too little. However, she had to make300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0Ar9fnM5U
use of this as much as possible, even if it meant seeing Leo down there for a300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY4OQnGPnn
minute.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2gkGVKxrl

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhDeHZJlJU
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGerzUWt2r
“I will,” said Miranda. She didn’t waste any time as she made her way for the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUJbJzZ1uk
door.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtoOjus3Ti
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIHyjM0piu
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZd2pyxPaD7
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiB8ahj4Hg
As soon as she walked out of the room, Hugo turned to Red Lion and asked, “Are300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEeVslhvos
you sure letting her go out like that is a good idea? Our host can walk in at300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj33Jp7kg4H
any moment.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cIMXVDuQM

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGYL4BENxe
“True, but it’s better than her staying out on the balcony while we wait,” Red300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhhhZu6o0T
Lion answered. “If you ask me, I would step out too if it wasn’t for the football300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujV19T60AD
game. But I was serious about my threat, so she better be here before he does.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ykU8cvgrP

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArnMBuxeqT
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jmpXObrd1
Walters didn’t say anything as he briefly looked at Red Lion before looking up300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEqCxEu9sC
at the TV. Red Lion wasn’t kidding when he said he was in a good mood, Walters300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYL0MD4ZlV
thought to himself. Knowing Red Lion, he wasn’t going to let Miranda walk out300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPGWpsJeCs
of here. Something must have really put Red Lion into a good mood today, or300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22WCUZVZJH

Leo and Eric came to join the others at the table with their drinks, and Eric,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOnMo6DREl
on the other hand, carried a plate full of nachos and cheese. Oliver was so300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡketbEfoU4n
delighted to see the plate of snacks that he couldn’t wait to eat them. Angel300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmNESUVE4M
had to warn him not to eat too much, or else he might have a bad tummy ache the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ448Eu12FIW

Oliver, who sat on Angel’s other side, didn’t answer him as he took his mango300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5R3Zs1DfVn
milkshake and put the straw in his mouth. Angel, on the other hand, looked at300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhovplac4AS

between them. He also served Marco a bottle of the cider that he wanted. Marco300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nQu9rvi0b

“Hey, Marco,” said Angel as she turned to look at him, looking over Oliver, who300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmgIPSzKkS

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenmxnEvEL7

“Oh, yes, I’ve come here several times,” answered Marco. “I usually come here300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0ApVYpLfY
with dad on business trips. Inheriting the family business can be tiring,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlRQBF9AkC
especially when they’re showing you the ropes. You just have to be there, even300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcQwvSJJbt

“Wait, does that mean I might inherit mum’s business of running the massage300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhUe34i0aQ

they all burst into laughter.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVt6GATfHl

All the grown-ups at the table looked at the young boy, somewhat surprised at300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCO2S1m4zKE
his answer. They all stayed that way for a brief moment before Leo stretched300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16wLatz2jt
out his hand to get a nacho.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yS2XXQHxZ

“Just like Leo said, a very wise response,” said Marco as he looked at Oliver300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEAorD4HJF
admirably. “Hopefully, you do inherit, and we will become business partners in300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmJhQvc1Xx

Leo slowly stopped chewing as he looked at Marco. He didn’t know if answering300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMAkuZCNgS
Marco would be a good idea, but he only gestured with his head to acknowledge300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZey07FTFTM

Angel was sipping on her drink when her eyes wandered away from the area in the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIg8ml7bQr3
bar and to the fountain. She had a feeling Trina and Kim had been standing300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpgmQgBQqn
there for a while. When she found there were only a couple looking at the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPmrNPQoC7
fountain, she started to worry. Could they have given up and left? Kim didn’t300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqJd3lXD4a
seem like the kind of person who would give up on anything, Angel thought.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQy7DxKcvc

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzJ9ZF2RVk

She was lucky enough to see Kim and Trina approach the open bar, and she had a300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXLob0jbBv
clear view of them. Leo sat with his back facing them, but she feared Eric and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVMMUbP5RF
Oliver would see them. Angel had to think of something to turn their eyes300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1RXusxH7y
elsewhere. What should she do?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6bOYE5GZ2e
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7irORGFN8
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3SQxa8Wee
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFWZeUjl80
She turned to Oliver, and he seemed distracted as he was eating the nachos300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZCxwcrnRO
hungrily. Turning to Eric, she found him somewhat staring at her.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBHdHVtXZ1

“Oh, nothing,” he said, somewhat looking a little embarrassed that he was300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnETvduzrdl

Angel noticed Kim and Trina enter the bar area through the corner of her eye.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1U15pquVQk
She couldn’t turn to look at them. That would only get Eric to look, and he300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5j8DSHjZKK
would spot them eventually. She had to keep eye contact with him for as long as300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPOnOCPccc

Leo felt like throwing up in his drink as he had a clear sight of Eric flirting300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TlaCbotjj
with Angel. He wished he could tell them to get a room, but he knew better than300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBOMahU082
to say it when he was flirting with Carly some time ago.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgi0m66nENy

Angel saw through the corner of her eye that Kim and Trina had entered the bar300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvVdEG616t
area and were now looking around for a table on the other side. It was best for300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYf5aLAENRL
them to get a table where they couldn’t be seen. As soon as they were out of300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKE4BtAo8zK
sight, Angel couldn’t help but feel relieved. She went on ahead to pick a300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfyGSOBthe
nacho, dip it in cheese, and eat it.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5MF4WLpCM

Kim didn’t argue there. She somewhat agreed with Trina. She looked toward the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJlYwmezaa
bar. Luckily enough, it was circular in shape with a bar shelve in the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HoNVcFk9f
circumference, blocking the view of the other side. Therefore, she could see300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKwsxCQNNJ
neither them nor them doing the same. Moreover, she could easily go over to the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1aSZj15m5
counter for a drink.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzYD7IOSaB

“We should really think things through, Kim,” said Trina as she looked over at300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7foOYLO01Q
the bar, realizing that the others were out of sight. “Is staying here really300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTmNQJqmOm

A sudden laugh came out of Kim’s mouth. Tears almost filled her eyes. “You’re300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXBKdL1MMi

“Well, I’m not like you,” said Trina as she folded her arms. “You’re making300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LiJh5mmVj

Trina raised an eyebrow. “Will you? I know you, Kim. Leo has been the only man300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO83oTTTX0n
you’ve been in love with since we were kids, and him breaking up with you and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWlNn6mZXH
calling off the wedding was a heavy toll. I don’t think you’ll be able to let300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi07oUPzS1M

Trina swallowed, thinking over her words before she spoke them out. “All I’m300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZ2a7IHyB4
saying is that it’s time to let Leo go. Thinking about him and his new lover300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLz8TvkFth

Kim sighed. She stretched out her hand over the table and beckoned to Trina to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf7Zq1qhzK
give her hers. Trina did likewise, and Kim held her friend’s hand tightly.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAna9GHYcWx

Trina quickly stood up and left the table. Kim looked on at her best friend and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7z5K87KQN
knew she had pissed her off. She wished she could assure Trina that she was300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6823kcl5zL

Miranda rushed out of the elevator and ran into the garden like a mad woman.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDiBEx0N4C
Along the way, she pushed people aside. To some, she apologized, but to others,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdQ90s9uC1
she didn’t even give them a second thought.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboqgH2kJde

There was only one way to the garden, and that was through the western wing300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwN82MQ4gEd
since the doors to the east wing weren’t open, said a woman she had met in the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQsk6ZwoDV
elevator who was going downstairs and who had lived in the hotel for a long300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEk0gSsRvl
time. Thankful for the information, Miranda had to rush. She only had a few300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWE5nrr1BhG

She had just bypassed the fountain, heading towards the open bar, but then she300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRg1IF2kQNl
stopped herself short. She had to see where Leo was sitting first; he might as300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRDzFY23vo

She didn’t have to look any further, as she saw Leo at the table with Carly300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Wir3a4L2g
beside him along with other people. Leo was holding the floor for the time300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezsRQzKOze
being, and Miranda noticed how everyone laughed at what he said. Carly, who sat300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj59PVuNNql
next to him, looked admirably at him. Miranda huffed. If only she could figure300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qQ8p2mPva

Miranda walked over to the counter and sat on the stool. Immediately, the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsXeZhMgXh
bartender attended to her, and she ordered a martini. The bartender went on300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNherydYA5
ahead to make her drink as Miranda slightly turned around on her chair to look300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzyytJXrIy
at the table behind her. She had a clear view of Leo, and a smile came across300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7hM52v6IO

Marco, Leo, and Eric now turned their eyes on Angel with curious looks. Her300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfjdXkU48b
cheeks flushed in embarrassment as she looked down at the table. She pressed300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEjAfulgF6
her lips together before looking at everyone, including Oliver.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2YKEAeuUr

as though he were judging them for giving him such a look.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83Hz9E5tpQ

Angel and Carly burst into laughter. Marco and Leo chuckled, while Eric looked300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7tRcEy9CD

“Well, no, I’m being really genuine here. Angel carries a certain level of300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtiPZSkPDy
elegance that I can describe as classy. I don’t know, but there’s much more to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJy1TcrK7u

Everyone was silent except for Oliver, who loudly sucked at his smoothie300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9o4xUw6CMX
through the straw. Angel found herself looking at Marco with her cheeks feeling300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIs5aruuJAc
like hot coals slapped across her face. Marco turned from Leo to Angel, and the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvt9hIULHDr
corner of his lips rose to a smile. This time, his smile was gentle and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOoRqOVwIz

Leo swallowed, as he didn’t know how to respond to Marco’s statement. He saw300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUITnOgEWM
Marco shift his attention to Angel. As much as Marco was somewhat right from300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6hlIbJR3o
Leo’s perspective, he did his best to try and not take it to heart. For some300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPut5f1a3x
reason, he couldn’t stand the way Marco looked at her, and it bothered him a300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtySZPXLb8
little. He started to wonder if Marco really liked Angel.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UNCtyUeYs

Eric felt like taking Angel by the hand and dragging her away from Marco. He300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGlEQ72Uj4
shifted uncomfortably in his chair, and he thought of bringing something up to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2CqhfelOZ

Carly couldn’t help but stare at Angel. What Marco said resonated with her, and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPYbI6wtzB
as she stared at her sister, she could see it clearly. She always felt there300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLyafEh7pr
was something about Angel that she couldn’t put her finger on, and it seems300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKkulE7XUB
Marco hit the nail right on the head. Carly has not always looked up at her300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUky1AJFhOm
sister because she was older, but she always carried with her a certain essence300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSg0qk67yoi
that Carly’s been following blindly for years. She knew she could never be like300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwM37stWUE0
Angel, but that essence always showed brightly, and Carly always admired Angel300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hhajkgsyk

Oliver started to say something to keep everyone busy. When Leo was just a few300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1xvu5NVNd
feet away from the bar, it was then that Angel jerked upright in her seat as300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAL3yT1sdOX

“I’m good, thanks,” Angel replied, assuring Eric with a smile. She turned to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Bgl78uT2i
Leo, who was heading to the counter. Kim was obviously on the other side, so300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPwf3PJ7Ac
Leo wouldn’t see them. She was worrying over nothing.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEklaY1FHV

Miranda quickly turned back in her seat to face the beer and wine bottles on300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTKswCj0FQ
the shelf behind the bar counter as she saw Leo approach. She swallowed as she300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQG267w8aqJ
felt her hands start to shake. A debate arose in her head. Should she say300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChkHE36U5P
something to him when he comes over? Why should she? It’s not like he can300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTnNZXW8fkc

Leo finally reached the counter, and he happened to stand next to Miranda. When300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6lntDtRV0
Miranda saw him through the corner of her eye, she felt frightened like a mouse300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxAQrUjxJ5
that scurries away when it sees the enemy. However, she tried to sit still in300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymlwbTGVgG
her seat so as not to draw any attention to herself. She looked down at the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHa6qV4IpB4
glass in front of her and slowly took it. She tried to control the trembling in300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6skD1OWUr8
her hand and hoped that she wouldn’t spill the drink over or that Leo wouldn’t300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgnkWwi19Y

Leo ordered another plate of nachos, and his eyes diverted to the side. His300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFsl8mci25
eyes fell on the woman beside him. He had a funny feeling that she looked300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6b4CWe37H7
familiar, but he didn’t know if he should ask. Still, it was better to mind his300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQpQRCgsEh

Miranda felt his eyes on her, and automatically, her head turned to the side to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZXaJGMggF
look at Leo. After realizing what she had done, her eyes went wide with300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPr7HRGWVud
surprise.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8gUm2Ocdi

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6ZVTVhJSc
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuxUuL8M7d

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0BpmcMWYt
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHvEtKVSB5
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoroPnhQvKp
Leo gave her a friendly smile and nodded his head, showing that he understood.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYE7s2rmclC
His gesture made Miranda almost want to shoot out of her stool like a rocket.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xvqH7litN
Her heart fluttered, and she wanted to hold on to that beautiful feeling300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6lCkIWzvW

The bartender came back with the plate refilled with nachos and cheese. Leo300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsUOSywthv
took it and thanked the bartender. He turned to Miranda, and she knew that300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzWL4YzmyV

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6DXyyazDp
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfMOxNPESq
“Thanks,” said Miranda. She didn’t know what to say next as Leo took his leave.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuuaR1QMMO
The thought of being just a stranger to him didn’t sit well with Miranda. She300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJ0bX606AL
wanted to be close to him. How will she be able to do that?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwISe5ZlI1m

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKP2kbUHyOm
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwYIEi9qI9
Her eyes fell to the table Leo was heading to, and she saw Carly talking with300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyspicfquBR
so much glee. She didn’t seem to have a care in the world, and it hurt Miranda300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgrDUcYtIW
that she should be the one close to Leo and not her.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsuTyyTrd5

Carly turned her eyes to Leo, who was approaching the table, and she couldn’t300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0iiBKZQSj
help but smile at him. Miranda was smart enough to turn her head so that Carly300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE5KEZ4Fft
wouldn’t see her. Miranda knew her time was up, and she was guessing that she300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡto5Cp2Jz9X
might have overstayed at the bar. It was time to go back upstairs. She thought300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAUN8cOU6w
of looking back at Leo, but it wasn’t worth the risk. It was best for her to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwHezlVigd
leave, but after she finished her martini.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyMRlNs1d9

A few seconds before that, Trina came back to the table with two bottles of300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xUUE433BE
cider. She sat herself down and placed one bottle in front of Kim.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOoWXnXI92

As the two women stood at the table, Trina stopped Kim by placing her hand on300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1q7aynX3CM
Kim’s shoulder.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZvhKovDnf
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedKNPYGZfn
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlpMORcOate

“I know you’re tired of me saying this,” said Trina, “but doing this is a bad300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ab8V53G8h
idea. We should get out while we can.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8O9UgQ1vCD

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWJ6KwwlTJ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGr406SFHlv
Kim scoffed. “I gave you my word earlier, didn’t I? There is no need to repeat300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivt6XaWs75
the conversation. Let’s go.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrA2wSRzsRh

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbRMN0h0Kh
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiAEgvodVG
Trina’s hand fell away from Kim’s shoulder as Kim started to make her way to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3Ddbc9K53
the other side of the bar. Trina followed her, and coming back the way they300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87cAAFbj5m
came, they stopped at the counter. From the angle at which they stood, they300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEOfO8MRhV
were able to see Leo’s table.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLgfnJ176j
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnST0X77jRP
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrv98MVZZxl
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oMHVC42nB
The two of them sat on the stools, facing each other. Trina had her back facing300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFRU2DPG4Z
Leo’s table, shielding Kim from plain sight if the worst happened.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AZJ8fz59S
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IR15JVgKM
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIQpCSXEpE
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyTBLHGfJ1
“I can’t see so much, so you’ll be telling me what’s going on,” said Trina.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0V47Pd1K06
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtp8t91ivDT
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGxTYrxTcO

“You’re overthinking things,” said Kim. “You can take a peek and still won’t be300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCj74L5B7k

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq11pYM5q6X
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrs70w9GmPX
Trina turned her head slightly to see Leo approach the other side of the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRyz8nF8HX
counter. He wasn’t looking in their direction, so they were at ease as they300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ158KA0NYI7
looked on. They saw him ask the bar tender for another refill of nachos. He300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeQxulk8iO
soon looked at the woman beside him, and Kim held Trina’s hand on the bar300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UjhuHr0Vb
counter in anticipation.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr7e4yHomy
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Wkk9vqMkW
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkp5OIdrguK
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gp1H5LT9y
“Could it be her?” Kim asked, almost squeezing Trina’s hand.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeewJjmR9cH

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQ6BmWi48G
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSw5ds4amj
Trina looked at the woman beside Leo as she turned to look at him. She shook300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1sH3kYsBaW
her head. “I don’t think so,” said Trina.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ibl8N4kA9
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DGZFopYg1
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jwxy0NuCd
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERgiivFGOa
They watched as Leo talked with the woman briefly, and as soon as he took the bowl300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNyPEmcbaX
of nachos, he addressed the woman and went back to his table. Trina shook her300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxgbs5iLkb
head.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHYZ8MIzKC
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoybPzaayf
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw74gTg1mBj
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjm2PKgZSNU
“She’s not the one,” said Trina. “They looked like they knew each other, but300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡal0P6oaJvG
not at that intimate level.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBKL4cdHck

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3QYatxCmR

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9fY6lzIRn

Trina rolled her eyes before turning them at her friend. “Does every smile he300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6vwHb8T7R

he was being friendly to me.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrDBWrE2aD
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCwaAniyJc
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbu4f3cr6r

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmYIeJ8sCV
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmunKgV2eme
Trina raised an eyebrow at her. Kim knew she was taking things a little far and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzwsRqlMGZ
looked the other way, taking a sip from her bottle and feeling embarrassed.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbN4EW6eb1
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4ATK6kJ2C
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqUasb1taJ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1axfPGInaM
Angel stared at her empty glass of soda, concluding that she needed to refill.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbSP9QBBG3
She excused herself from the table and started to make her way to the bar300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3ZcagWomN
counter.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeYUPnkR7f

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRyBt9gdAx
Miranda finished her martini in one huge gulp. She placed the glass on the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgjLITLiF7
counter, leaving the bill under the glass. After she stepped down from her300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nyDeGcTYm
stool, she turned around and came shoulder to shoulder with someone.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhK1MedAR4v
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhf3K7grX5B
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOkVtHkixw

“Oh, sorry about that,” said a beautiful woman in a stunning red velvet dress.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZ105TDPGQ

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKQ82oDJ99
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyV28jLKkwH
Miranda almost panicked, for she thought the person she had bumped into was300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxD8MdANB8Z
someone familiar. However, looking closely, she realized that it was Angel,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTC4NKrj1W4
Carly’s older sister. Miranda knew Angel didn’t know about her, but Miranda300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzLgjRIbEI
knew who she was. In the past, when she and Carly used to work together, Carly300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGpvP9iOnE
had shown Angel’s pictures to her a few times. Miranda acknowledged that the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTdRIy8ke1
sisters had looks that could kill, but there was something about Angel’s beauty300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRoXx3sNov
that was different from Carly’s.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPPwQwRvIx

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnR7uY3Wzyw
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZa2iOLp2Tf
“Oh, it’s nothing,” said Miranda.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLMVwxD3Q8
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4peSQqnuhe
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDraaXgeoEA
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykfNY5k1ek
Angel smiled at her before turning her attention to the bartender. Miranda300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoJfD68iHe
turned around to head out of the bar when she froze in her tracks. She felt300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDduFr73JR
caught in a trap as she looked ahead. This is bad.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4veS4FQ9s
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyhLD7Kykq
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkKCRgLMms
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNd3B3Wv76T
Carly’s eyes fell on Miranda as she looked over to the bar to check on her300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtzPSQ3916
sister. Miranda happened to be right in her line of vision. Carly’s eyes300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNpq4l1rUE
widened with fear as thoughts started to run through her head. What was Miranda300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ln2KjTZIn
doing here?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypkrmdKuKm
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpM4zPBKysY
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB4fBgsCCsB
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFlHNxoRGYR
Angel thanked the bartender after refilling her glass, and when she turned300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3M8KeHTyGX
around, the woman whom she bumped into stood still like a statue. Angel read300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB8ZRvLysb
her body language, and she realized that the person seemed to be in some kind300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5jiaVVGz1
of shock. She noticed the woman looking towards the table where her sister and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KjTpg2usl
the others were. Moreover, she saw Carly look at the woman with the same300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQ9twJeE2B
surprised look.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIJq0MsU4n
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2r933giXUU
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fMX60IB3l
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxDUr6WUjM
Angel raised an eyebrow. She was just about to touch the woman’s shoulder to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkysUHiWHeN
get her attention, but she thought better of it.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Hi9GS2bg0
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3EhxP82SH3
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oR9b3prO7
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDnD4Hfjju
“Hey, are you okay?” Angel asked.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gMMh5Zg9M
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrusc4TdSdg
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuPWRyf6Fm0
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHztGblbH6V
Miranda jolted back to reality and turned to look at Angel. She nervously300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8saRleqIa
chuckled. “Uh, yes, I’m fine, thanks,” said Miranda. “I thought I saw someone I300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbO0v0B9bg
knew, but I was mistaken. I should go now.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRUBwB1E4h
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjjkinbPGR
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZZR6RM3xw
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhMKtwXffc
Before Angel could say anything, Miranda quickly made her way out of the bar.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCv8AzzlBH0
Those who were wondering what took Angel so long turned to the bar counter and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eqGAwIU5c
saw the woman quickly walk away from Angel. Angel looked at the young woman,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXMi9PYqrpb
and she turned her attention back to the table, specifically on Carly. Carly300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5slOsM06W
didn’t turn her head right away as she looked at her sister. She didn’t want to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2y0UO9MJFj
look like she knew Miranda, and it was best to act natural. Angel went back to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgcslFBuNp
the table.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Oa3VUs8Bm
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIo5S4NehF
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOtVB7JHn0

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlGBi4G9KL
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YQEA3d4SU
“Oh, she thought she recognized someone, but she was mistaken,” said Angel as300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFbR4zAmHl
she sat back down on her seat, placing her glass on the table.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7ju0TwWlo

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiliUmy0iMy
“She must have meant me,” said Leo. Carly looked at him, surprised at his300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDL34fLAjx
statement. “Remember the time we went to that candy store a few days ago?” He300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CuVrza8jr
looked at Eric. “She was the one who bumped into that moving shelf.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oy7JvqmZc
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSsosTd09n
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Je6qEYYjW

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOF61OcqaAN
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfR6N84jdQ2
“Obviously she was nervous because of Leo again,” said Eric. “I bet the reason300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡis0kwZod1o
she bumped into that shelf was because of your scary looks.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPt0PQnu4SZ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xj78rkLnL
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObI8qkeYC1

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWOglgP3bL
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaS758Y1mL
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorIS2nOkm1
“Mind you,” Leo started to say, “when I went over to the bar, I actually talked300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRD9k7ZAtV
to her. She didn’t seem nervous to me.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTlCqKGRtJ

Marcos and Angel laughed at Eric. Eric, on the other hand, felt like hitting300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdG762rnbRt
his brother on the head. Carly had been silent the whole time as thoughts ran300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3qt7Su8KP
through her head. Miranda actually had a talk with Leo, and that scared her.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmjnRJlguT
Could she have told Leo that she was also there at his bachelor party?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbHcmlqyJ7
Moreover, they met days ago at the candy store, and she finds herself here at300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoz5TtHOup
the hotel. Why did Carly feel like she was suddenly in jeopardy?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbROiYUwgQ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9nUs7yq8z
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKfvJAa8ye
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHtU7U5mWs
Angel wiped away the tears from her eyes, and she soon looked at Carly, who300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDU7Xe8bCK
looked lost in thought. She couldn’t help but wonder what her sister was300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFIB1DyMDv
thinking about.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwagGOA6qR3

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2tdxwCPoZ

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREn2CPPWFQ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNPEsjVVn2
Leo gave Angel a look. He still didn’t get the chance to be alone with Carly.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRghjgBSaL
When Marco said he was leaving, he thought he had the opportunity. He turned to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7YIgtxv8AI
look at Carly beside him, and she seemed to look lost in her own world.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO32roR7MyS

here.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjIL00prQK

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91QNyKEc7M
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwp19jK4dS
Angel threw Leo a look, knowing what he was playing at. She wanted to leave300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtUAUGwJxl
because the possibility of Leo seeing Kim and Trina was high, and she didn’t300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZpOgvRjBF
want to risk it. Moreover, if Kim does see Leo spending his time alone with300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0cuTPkfOe
Carly, she will realize without a doubt that Carly is Leo’s lover. If only she300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGTKBa8oJV
could tell Leo without making him so upset, she thought to herself.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAqcYDT6PD

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0VbY3ckY7

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg6joQ83omV
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFKc9imvkw
Angel sighed, but not the kind that anyone would notice. It looks like she lost300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipHRECDi9x
this one. She just has to find a way to work around it.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCt0GgTTAP9

“Well, then I’ll leave you to enjoy yourselves,” said Marco as he stood up from300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqK2hF7xFi
his seat. “Before I forget,” he said as he turned to Angel. “I would love to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJeMG92ac8

Angel almost forgot about that, and she blushed immediately when Marco asked her.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhuROsm8kY
She watched him pull out his phone. He turned his eyes on her, giving her his300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3vhXJeHeS
full attention. Angel hesitated for a bit before giving out her number, and he300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZW01taNBG
typed it down on his phone. Eric and Leo looked on, wondering why Marco looked300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoGFVrCDxsX
so eager to get her number. Carly wasn’t paying much attention, so she couldn’t300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aYXSUc75k

Marco wished everyone a good night, and everyone responded back. Even Carly,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjvStdYyKS
who looked absent-minded, said goodnight. Before leaving, Marco gave Angel a300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIPMi0M7E5
wink, telling her to expect a message from him anytime soon. Angel only smiled,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftRIjip3w1
feeling embarrassed that he said that in front of everyone.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzEbmOs9bY

Leo turned to Carly, and it was then that he noticed that she hadn’t talked300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNSnVc6ikZ
much at all for a while.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL1x1llg2h

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiFmBWGulI
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4ABFPmT9V
Everyone turned to look at Carly. She tried to hide it with a smile, telling300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NO918OzOm
Leo that she was alright. Angel couldn’t point out why her sister looked low,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt62af9XQqp
but she knew she could use this to her advantage.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3mNGhlvND

Carly looked at Angel, and a small smile appeared on her face. She definitely300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgXRlQftFt
needed to leave. The fact that Miranda was here messed with her head a lot, and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeCce3nDBd
she felt like being as far away from the hotel as possible. Considering that,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ilg2QbT2T
Miranda might still be around.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQSP0KxPHN
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwcPmdfIK0
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdi0Gl6CCQ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2DQGD1xTI
“Angel is right,” said Carly. “I’m feeling rather overwhelmed. We’ve had a long300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyosanOgVO

Leo looked a little disappointed, but now that he saw Carly more clearly, she300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUYkGf2Q4J
didn’t look too well at all. It looks like his plans for tonight might as well300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3UlLOUVSY
go down the drain. If Carly was feeling too tired, it was understandable that300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUdc5jnQsw
she wasn’t going to enjoy his company alone with him either.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pgbJgSnay

Trina and Kim, who still sat observing Leo, noticed Eric stand up from his300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgO8uAX74Z
seat. The others were still at the table, and it was only a moment later that300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkXRrLoxVLr
they started to stand up.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8yrxftaaJ

Angel and Oliver started to make their way to the entrance of the bar when300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcHVZJ39xd
Angel, through the corner of her eye, saw Kim and Trina. This was bad. From300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbD3zN1kzz
where she stood, she feared Leo might also notice them. She slowed her pace300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGeV1xsVdE
with Oliver and waited for Carly and Leo to catch up. If she was lucky, Leo300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBiuhkz8Nl
might pass by without noticing Kim and Trina, but one can never be too sure.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHD4w8iK7u
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDnKUlpdoNH
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBypF21Pahp
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobdeSr2k0G
Carly made her way to Angel and Oliver, with Leo following slowly behind her.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKknAdQmRQ
Without much thought, his eyes found their way to the bar counter, and he300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyWyAzPUJQ
noticed someone familiar at the other end. Only when the person turned in his300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGk46XnyC9
direction and their eyes fell on him did he realize who it was.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsbfpPm6ql

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLYIB8KFGg
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNoyBMelNd
“Oh, my gosh,” said Kim as she held Trina’s shoulder in a tight grip. “He’s300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvgIVnsmyl

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9wU6nmH5N
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0T3gGpRnZK
Trina choked on her own words that she couldn’t speak as he saw Leo staring300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybrB3t6O6G
back. His eyes slowly started to flame with anger. Or was it fury?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Dfugajtbx
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiauhn7J38L
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1IdyrAA1H
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8m3IYldmp
“Trina, we better go,” said Kim.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rFR8KHGZJ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BIfp3qj6K
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzmTHZGxgK
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4crqQJt1fV
Leo couldn’t believe Trina and Kim were there by the counter, staring back at300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaYVzTVOkz
him. Did they happen to be here by coincidence, or did were they here because300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKuBKuG0hk
of him? He noticed how scared they looked at him, as if they had been caught300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYEMHokV8N
doing something wrong. That confirmed that they were following him. He decided300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTUskZmAaB
he was going to give them a piece of his mind.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevgioMhL8E
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgj2YqvDXVN
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvMbizPc3R
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvgY6DTCZP
Just as he was about to make his way over to them, a gentle touch fell on his300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpdMylOyai
shoulder, stopping him from proceeding further. He looked to the side, and he300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJxNYV05uN
found Angel standing right beside him, her hand on his shoulder. She looked at300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGpkWL34b3
him with her soft brown eyes; they were stern yet so peaceful. There was300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsgZASrOAz
something about her look and her presence beside him that made him slowly start300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CZ5j6l348
to feel the anger in him dissipate like smoke.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJppohMlwSs
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMS6EG2gFD
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj43AZcKIym
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3LVgISuNH
She shook her head. “Not here,” she said to him in her normal tone of voice.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoA6wrvrFq
“Now is not the time to make a scene.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqrJ6nrgFY

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WaZOv7Mtd
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZIpbKmyWg
Leo sighed, and he felt his muscles slowly start to relax. Angel was right; now300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqmSjbTOtF
wasn’t the time to throw a tantrum. He looked back at Kim, who continued to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcedteiMs3
look at him, still with a scared look on her face.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0oCaXirZF
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPavjEVVrqp
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRXnhMAx4o
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYj0YK4OVrg
"Fine," he said to Angel as he looked at her.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3i30fwKJC
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYQhmUaeJL
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63LbBpfahY
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhksEjAGhC
Angel gave a smile of relief. She turned to look at Trina and Kim, giving them300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWixrBkCRKM
a nod of her head. The two best friends looked relieved, but they knew that300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuK5TrFt8A
this wasn’t over.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsKuAdgAvZ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9RU9pq8hA
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvGjjaepeu
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyV2rGP29I
Leo turned around to head out of the bar. Fortunately, Oliver and Carly were300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9m24YAOCc
way ahead of him, so they didn't see his silent altercation with Kim and Trina.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyQanC6xIw
He walked out of the bar with Angel following closely behind him.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqf4HSwRVMX

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWqwmiWrt9
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMK65dkcma7

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLenjgOTrU5
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrJRzsSRGg
"Well, getting yourself angry wasn't going to do you or me any300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSJR6UtP7V
favors," said Angel.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RXnJ5OkGV
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHrkqWibzh
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjotDN2wfRL
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0UHhqucTV
Leo turned to look at her through the corner of his eye. "How long have300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoYwVQQYctr
they been there?"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKUDpsU0i4
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfXRiWrjxZ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90zTwtF3nO
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM24nRrxAIz
Angel found no point in lying to him. "I noticed them during our dinner. I300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPtbuHBrtO
didn't want to tell you in front of our guests."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTEdd8vVHz
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHz5A8JcPC
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOo1lLCtIn
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYliDoJrUQG
Leo scoffed. "It's obvious that they were following me. I guess that’s the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmADtg5vrU
reason why you didn’t want me to be alone with Carly."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡas4RrHZYqd
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSr9vRHhvQ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6bHmYBb5M
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvfF0hTl9TE
"I don't want them to find out about your relationship with her just yet,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTGjir6isp
so you've got to be careful from now on."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vXp2W831h
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEnFyrAVJ7
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70zMlds3cq
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVu4fW1K7y
A smile appeared across Leo's face. The two might have their differences, but300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkklRjBQdJg
it was clear to see that Angel did care about his relationship with her sister.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPCdI8rSXc

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SlyqhVu9u
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfchk9LBX7q
As they continued to walk down the stone path towards the fountain where Oliver300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAqvMZO5OvH
and Carly were, Leo tried to fight off the feeling of gratitude towards Angel.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnETty3VrW3
In the end, he decided to let the feeling settle in for one night, and one300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5qGRZfxAj
night only.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJapkPAEK3

Kim sighed in relief. “I hate to say this, but we really do have Angel to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIugAyzN0G
thank,” she said. “Though I feel Leo will confront us about it.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXuLsKQbJk

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn067UUOlOZ
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKuE6RKE2Z
“Yeah, but Angel talked to him, and he calmed down in an instant.” Trina leaned300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyh9AjWKpWA
against the bar counter, looking for the bartender. “Leo barely listens to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs89kZioMP
anyone, but he somehow listened to her. It’s best to receive his wrath300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJfQpgvvmT
privately rather than in an open place where he can embarrass us. I’m going to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKe5YbuXGcB
order a cocktail and drink to thank Angel for saving our sorry lives. Do you300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVPTCVe4B1
want one?”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeaML9PwXB
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cpwxQV8IH
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiPOSGB1rV
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0rXdWuT71
Kim gave a nod to Trina, and while her friend tried to get the attention of the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryyaFzbAYE
bartender, she couldn’t help but look at Leo with Angel walking beside him as300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmI4VcKrJk
they went further away from the bar. Memories of her and Leo started to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60Mhl9N3sI
surface, and she couldn’t recall once when he ever listened to her when he was300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNBh5IIH6d
upset. Trina was right. Leo barely listens to anyone, except this time around,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNQBb7uwoE
when Angel spoke to him. Her eyes fell upon Angel, who, even in that red velvet300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweGTXbvmvI
dress, walked effortlessly with elegance beside Leo. Was there something about300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS48VXCqKeo
Angel that Kim wasn’t aware of?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6POu2mRmN

Miranda quickly stepped out of the elevator and ran down the hall back to the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8y88hRakx
room where Red Lion and Mr. Walters were. She knew her thirty minutes were up,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwU4SbGh8t
and she had been so distracted that she didn’t notice her phone vibrate in the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡheFXBMr5gG
pocket of her jeans. When she checked in the elevator, she found three missed300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLI8yZdE0Q
calls from Mr. Walters, and she knew she was in for it.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU265XvwqK7

As soon as she reached the suite, the door flew open before she could even300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc37LW2OIZH
knock. She thought the first person she would see was Red Lion, but to her300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBh7lLznX2y
relief, it was Walters.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShRitKPHUB
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAq2q5sW0iM
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iWC8dSvXO

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9ytu4ipDK
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvkrnxs6QL

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLDWj8iynu
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWI2d1Rd2kz
“Yeah, but count yourself lucky,” said Walters as he stood aside to let Miranda300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7X4F5RyMs
through the door. “Red Lion was going to kill you if he wanted to.”300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8Ut4OwFUh

Miranda slowly stepped into the room, looking towards the living room area. Red300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdDvkLrnuN
Lion's comrade sat on the couch. His eyes fixed on the TV screen that showed300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcraT7Hhk4
the football game. Two more people sat on the other couch. They wore black300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNoBUlEHQ1
suits, and they were of Asian descent. The two looked like bodyguards. Were300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rh05Zp7a8

300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95BAcGQD3J
300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupYOnuIX6I
When she entered the living room area, she heard voices coming from the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCDh4xDnk7
balcony. She saw Red Lion standing by the open doors of the balcony. Someone300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdN5rWzWOCR
stood in front of him, talking to him. Miranda couldn’t see who it was as the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpd6AyrcEY
person stood on the balcony, and the doors hid him from view.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvd6RTkGdtb

Red Lion noticed Miranda's presence and turned to look at her. He surprisingly300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcbyqINfaS
