Just as I was about to reply, Mr. Wright suddenly glanced over and said, “Victoria, do you see that group over there? The man leading them is someone really important. I’m going to go say hello.”

Mr. Wright stepped forward to greet him, and Edward nodded in response.

Mr. Wright shot me a surprised look. “Victoria, you know Mr. Jennings?”

There was no way out, so I forced a smile and faced him head–on. “Hello, Mr. Jennings. Didn’t expect to run into you here.”
