Except for Daphne. Daphne had been working at the company for a while but could only land small orders worth

a few hundred to a couple thousand at most.

"I'll treat you to a meal then," Lily said, feeling lucky.

That evening after work, Lily bought barbeque ingredients and planned a small celebration with Maryanne.

Maryanne had stayed at her place all day, getting by with the breakfast she had left for her, but now, she was so

hungry she felt like she was starving.

When she heard about the barbeque, her eyes lit up. "I'll help you!"

investigation had been tricky, and Timothy was overwhelmed by the complexity of it.

Xavier's lips were tightly pressed together, and the cigarette between his fingers flickered in the dim light of the
