Hearing his assistant's words, Gabriel stopped flipping through the pages of his documents and raised his head. "And what did you find."

"Well..." the man hesitated, not wanting to offend his boss by bringing the result of his research. "The jewelry was from an antique store And well... it belongs to...to Ms. Leonica." Gabriel's eyes darkened. "Leonica?"

Looking up, Ashely faced the woman who was trying to calm the children.

When she finally did, she continued. "Today, we will be having our morning routines as usual, however with one exception." Pointing her hand towards the door, everyone watched as a tall well built figure walked into their classroom.

Watching the figure walk in, Ashely's eyes grew wide in astonishment, recognition and

pleasure. His expression was acknowledge as the male threw him a warm smile as soon as he spotted the younger boy.

"Kids, today, a very important person would be joining us." Mrs. Harper began once more as soon as The male had taken up a spot beside her "This is Mr. Gabriel Bryce, a very important and Norlight's biggest shareholders and today, he's here for a brief inspection."
