“Mr. Adrien,” Luca spoke up. “Could you please put on some clothes before you speak?”

“Luca?” Adrien recognized the voice and attempted to sit up, but was promptly kicked back down onto the bed by Emmeline’s swift foot.

Luca quickly caught up and pulled the covers over Adrien, leaving only his head exposed.

As Adrien lay there, he finally got a good look at the young, handsome “young man” who had just kicked him twice. Although he couldn’t quite place where he had seen him before, there was something familiar about him.

Emmeline squinted her eyes and crushed her cigar into the ashtray on the table.

“Adrien, you really are bored with life!” Her delicate and beautiful appearance belied her crisp and cold voice.

“Emma!” Adrien exclaimed, startled, and attempted to leap up from the bed.

But Luca quickly threw himself on top of him, holding him down firmly.

“Luca, let go! Emma’s here, I need to talk to her!” Adrien demanded.
