At the airport, Nick had just stepped off the plane, and Reid was right there to meet him.

"Hey, Mr. Nick," Reid greeted, nodding respectfully before grabbing Nick's suitcase.

Nick, looking sharp in his sleek black suit, carried himself with a tall, commanding presence. He had this cool, aloof vibe about him. As they walked toward the exit, he asked, "Has Keir woken up yet?"

"Not yet," Reid replied with a bit of a grin. "We've got Miss Mira to thank for Keir still hanging in there. Without her, well..."

Nick knew all too well about Mirabella's medical skills, and that knowledge eased his mind a bit. "With Mira there, I'm sure Chester will pull through."

"Absolutely," Reid nodded.

Miss Mira had quite the reputation for turning around cases that stumped the hospital's best doctors. With her on their side, it was just a matter of time before Keir would be back on his feet.

They reached the parking lot, and Reid stashed the luggage in the trunk. Once in the car, he checked the rearview mirror, started the engine, and asked, "Mr. Nick, do you want to head to the Davis estate or go straight to the hospital?"
