Chapter 65

In a spacious office on the fourth floor of The Red House, a young woman,

who was wearing sunglasses and had her shoes off, was basking under the

moonlight on a lounge chair.

Courtney couldn’t resist calling Seth after having just accomplished

brought Xavier’s son along. They even ordered a bottle of good wine.”

She sounded proud as she continued, “I sent her the wine you left last time.

Can you guess if she can tell?”

Seth paused.

She grinned, thinking she had finally struck a chord with him. So, she couldn’t

resist taunting him.

Suddenly, he spoke, “If you really have nothing to do, just find a class to

attend. At least you’ll be doing something productive with your time.”
