“That man in the black jacket seems a bit like… Ryan?”

Ashley looked closely, but Bradley had got in the car, and she could not longer make out his features clearly.

Miranda sighed regretfully, “I wanted to introduce you to Bradley, but his team had a sudden issue, and he had to leave.”

Seeing the man in the driver’s seat, Miranda greeted him awkwardly. “Hello, Mr. Pliskin.”

With the sunset nearing the horizon, Ashley replied, “It’s evening, yes, time for dinner.”.

Valentin said. “Remember to eat well.”

Ashley was speechless. “I’m not a child. I know that.”
