Feeling inspired by Koven's words of encouragement, Lucy returned to her room to wait for Matthew so that they could leave together. Lucy was unaware, but during the short time she spent with Koven, Matthew had become entangled with Samantha.

After parting briefly from Lucy, a group of people quickly gathered around Matthew.

Some were genuinely interested in discussing business, but others had different intentions.

Matthew had attended many events like these, and he always kept a distance from people like them. However, no matter how hard he tried, some people always managed to get too close. It was impossible to shake them off.
