Xanthe wanted to find Shakira, but running into Sean complicated things. So, she decided to wait until they left. Sean kept glancing at Xanthe, and when he noticed she wasn't interested, He clenched his jaw.

He thought, 'My foot still hurts! How ungrateful she is, pretending not to care!'

The manager responded, "Of course, Mr. Reynolds. I'll have the secretary..."

"No need for that, let her show me around," Sean said, pointing to Xanthe, who was shrinking in the corner.

Everyone fell silent, shocked. Xanthe felt a jolt of surprise. She wasn't ready for this.

Xanthe replied, "... Fine." Her luck was strange; she tried to sneak away but still ended
