They arrived at the Marsh family's club just on time, exactly as Diego had promised. In front, two men in dark uniforms were already standing at the main gate, as if they had been told to expect them. The moment Diego's car rolled up, they pulled the gates open and bowed slightly, and Diego drove them inside."Wow, this place is..." Mirabel said, her voice trailing off as she leaned toward the window to look outside. It was a captivating scenery.The grounds were polished to perfection, with grass trimmed along the whole length of the driveway with trees that were well arranged and complimented the entire thing with heavy blossom.Ethan had been in nice places before, but this one felt different. He hadn’t pictured it to be this welcoming especially when he knew the venue was brought about by Mr. Marsh. Diego parked and Ethan didn’t need him to tell him he wasn’t going to follow them inside.As Ethan and Mirabel alighted from the car a staff member came to meet them.“Welcome, ple

"Hello! We can see you!" Mirabel called. The man still hadn't come out from behind the display, even after a full minute, and they were all standing there waiting patiently."Should I go and get him, big bro?" she asked. She was clearly eager to, but before Ethan could answer, the man stepped out with a frown on his face."Finally," Mirabel said.He walked toward them with an angry expression and stopped close to the cashier's side. Mirabel's relief turned serious again when it became clear he had no intention of apologizing for what he'd done."Well, what do you have to say for yourself?" she asked.What he said next flabbergasted her."What do I have to say for myself? What do you have to say for yourself? I was your escort, and instead of following me, you wandered off halfway through my presentation. If I'm at fault, it's only because I was the one running around trying to find you. And if my instinct hadn't told me you'd pull a stunt like this, I'd still be looking.""Hey, that's

"That's very rude!" Mirabel said, completely unsettled by the way the old man had spoken to Ethan."You shouldn't talk to strangers like that, especially when you don't know the full story," she added.The old man didn't give her more than a side glance before turning his attention back to Ethan, who stood there unbothered by the insult."I'm still waiting for an answer," the man said.Mirabel thought Ethan was going to speak harshly to the man. Instead, he gave the old man neither an answer nor an insult. He turned back to the woman attendant."As I was saying, can I have the price of this jacket? I'd like to take it, pay, and go, instead of needing somebody to walk me to the counter."The woman's mouth fell open. The old man was visibly annoyed at being ignored, and he stepped in front of both of them."Stop trying to hijack my escort!" he said, shaking with fury."I'm not hijacking her. I'm asking questions," Ethan said, realizing the man wasn't going to be sidelined."Well she’s m

"We're looking for formal attire that I can wear for an occasion tonight," Ethan said plainly."Of course, that's no problem at all," the man in the charcoal vest said. "Right this way, please."Ethan turned and saw that Diego hadn't moved from the side of the car. He was leaning against it with his arms folded, clearly not interested in coming along."I think it's better if I stay outside," Diego said. "I’m not the one planning to rise to the occasion.”"That's fine," Ethan said, and he and Mirabel followed the man through the glass doors.Inside, the boutique didn't fall short of what Mirabel had promised. The polished finishes, the warm lighting and the careful arrangement of every rack gave the place a sense of its own, and Ethan gave a small nod of approval. It was nothing like the last boutique he'd walked into."Please follow me," the man said, leading them to one particular section before turning around and clasping his hands together. "May I ask what exactly you're looking for

Chapter 104Ethan walked into the garage he had expected Diego to be at.Easily, he spotted Diego before Diego spotted him. The car was up on a lift, and Diego was rolling out from beneath it on a creeper board, wiping his hands on the piece of clothing he had hanging from his belt loop."I saw your call and I was about to come right over," Diego said, getting to his feet."I didn't want to disturb you, so I decided to come on my own," Ethan said."So what seems to be the issue?" Diego asked, still scrubbing grease off his fingers."I'm going to see Vanessa and her grandfather tonight, and I need a ride.""Her grandfather? That's Victor Marsh, right?" Diego said. "Sounds important. That's easy enough.""I'm also bringing Mirabel, so don't be surprised to see I have company.""That's perfectly fine. I'll get you there in time," Diego said."Alright." Ethan said turning, normally he would have hailed a cab, but he knew he'd rather arrive in something he trusted."Come to Delta Logist

"We remain expectant for both the positives and the negatives," Ethan said.Williams didn't fully understand what he meant by that. Instead of asking, he chose to accept it as it was. "Alright, sir.""Help me call Mirabel in," Ethan said."Noted, sir. I'll do that right away," Williams said, and he stepped out.Ethan leaned back in his chair and rocked it slowly from left to right, his eyes on the ceiling. A few minutes later, the door opened."Big bro," Mirabel said as she entered, causing Ethan to look up."It's good that you came here in time," he said, as he swayed in his chair lightly.Mirabel could tell he was thinking about something, though she didn't know what."Is there something you're planning, big bro?" she asked, coming closer out of curiosity."Yes," Ethan said with a nod."Well, what is it?" She moved right up to his desk, not bothering to sit in the chair across from him."I'm trying to decide whether to say yes or no to a text I just received.""Huh?" Mirabel was com
