Irwin had visited here often before; he knew the place like the back of his hand. With practiced confidence, he guided Lauren straight to Briony's studio.

Hannah didn't recognize Lauren, so she put on a polite but firm smile. "Excuse me, ma'am, may I ask who you are? Is there something I can help you with?"

Lauren answered with calm warmth. "I'm Irwin's grandmother. His parents are busy today, so I brought him along. We'll leave right after we discuss the cooperation I mentioned."

Mr. Lewis had powerful connections; everyone in the city whispered about it.

Hannah knew better than to offend people like that.
