After the call connected, Septimus spoke and chuckled as he stepped away from the gambling table.

The people surrounding him all turned their gazes on him in unison, exchanging puzzled looks with each other

Upon hearing this, Septimus burst into hearty laughter. “Ms, Thornton, I’ve grown accustomed to your style. You never show up without a reason. What brings you to me this time? Just tell me,”

Upon hearing this, Madelyn couldn’t help but chuckle. “It seems you’re really good at reading people, Mr. Septimus, so I guess I won’t beat around the bush.”

“I’m glad you know your place,” Madelyn replied in a teasing tone.
