Avery scowled. “What is the meaning of this, Mr. Colson?”

He went closer to her and said softly, “She’s the top player on our leaderboards, and she was sent by Mr. Alvarez.”

Avery could not hold back a laugh when she heard that. She deliberately raised her. voice. “Is that so? Say, Mr. Alvarez sure is generous! If only he was that generous to his wife too!”
