The Great Medical Saint (Matthew)

With a wave of his hand, Lucas signaled to his henchmen. About a dozen men carrying various gifts followed him into Opulent Club.

As they approached the entrance, their path was blocked by three people and a dog.

Lucas gestured to one of the burly men in his group, who immediately understood the command and moved forward to clear the way. "Move aside!" he barked at the group.
