"Hey, Anya," Mary's voice came through the phone, slightly muffled. "I've got so news. I spoke to my contacts at Steele Bank, and they've agreed to help us move the money soon."

Anya was glad she had found this out during a family gathering when Daniel was absent.

Mary brushed it off. "Hmm, must have been a mistake then. Anyway, I'll let you get back to your day. Take care, Anya."

"Thanks, Mary. You too." Anya hung up the phone, a frown forming on her face. She turned to Daniel, who was watching her with a frown.
