Julie immediately flashed a smile at the man, then quickly took a step to the side, seizing this rare opportunity. She gestured to Manuel, who was beside her, to snap a few clear front–facing pictures of Elliot.

She wasn’t sure if she was imagining it, but the moment she moved to her new position, she noticed a slight tremor at the corner of Elliot’s lips.

The photo session went smoothly and concluded after the dinner. Julie carefully examined the photos in Manuel’s and Hasan’s cameras.

Afraid that there might be issues, Julie made copies of the photos before parting ways with them. Then she smiled at Manuel and Hasan, saying, “That’s it for now. Tomorrow is Raymon’s official birthday banquet, so I’ll bring the invitations tomorrow. So, let’s meet at the hotel entrance tomorrow, alright?”

After seeing them nod, Julie smiled. Just as she turned around, a familiar voice came from behind, “Satisfied with the photos?”

“Kind of.” Julie instinctively replied before realizing who it was.

His tall figure was elongated, his shirt sleeves were slightly rolled up, and his outfit was paired with a black waistcoat. He looked effortlessly casual and gentlemanly.
