Nieva scanned Josiah from head to toe with a peculiar gaze and said, “That’s odd. You could have easily handled this situation yourself. It would have been much more convenient than seeking my help. Is there something else going on here that I should know about?”

Josiah cradled Aurora in his arms, leaning gently against the backrest as he spoke. “I’ve transferred some money, but I suspect she has her reservations. She probably won’t use it.”
