Remington Dashiell stepped forward, bending down to pick up the vase that had fallen.

Faintly, he heard the distant murmur of conversation from the room next door, mingled with the voices of two young men.

One was Jerome Madden, and the other sounded like Hogan White.

Quite the gathering, it seemed.

Remington's lips tightened slightly as he held the vase, turning back to the adjacent room.

Ray couldn't help but show a trace of sentiment as he saw Remington enter with the vase in hand.

"The flowers the boss went through so much trouble to get, and it's been less than an hour since they sneaked into the lady's room before being discovered," Ray remarked with a slight shake of his head.

He hurried forward to take the vase. "The missus didn't destroy the flowers; they came out looking pretty good. Guess she's not that mad at you after all."

Ray tried to comfort Remington.

Remington gave him a glance and scoffed, "You think because she didn't smash the vase over my head, it's an improvement, huh?"
