Encore of the Avenging Muse (Sylvia and Rupert)

Chapter 532

Hearing footsteps, Yves immediately let go of Sylvia, straightened his suit, and stood up with an easy grin.

"Ms. Sanford! Long time no see."

"Yves?" Reese's eyebrows shot up in surprise.

She quickly turned a bit to introduce him to the others. "When I was getting treatment abroad, Yves was in the hospital too-battle buddies, you could say. Small world, huh?"

Sylvia nodded out of courtesy and looked away, just in time to lock eyes with Kay.
