Mirabella’s tutor had a nondescript car with an exceptionally unique license plate. This made Shawn rub his chin thoughtfully. Could Mirabella’s tutor have a more intriguing background than he’d first imagined? And besides, wasn’t her tutor supposedly from her hometown? What was he doing here in the city?

Delilah turned around and saw Shawn deep in thought. She playfully tapped him on the shoulder. “Shawn?”
