None of them knew that the man who looked shabby

was, in fact, part of the Quillen family.

When did the Quillen family have a man among them?

Milani’s mind had gone blank, while Chase dared not

Even Claudette couldn’t hide her shock. Emmanuel has

joined the Quillen family? Does he work for them? Or

has he become a live–in son–in–law?
