Riverbend Village was a new development built a couple of years ago in the old town area. It was a middle to low-end residential area, located far from the city center, hence the affordable price.

So, it wasn’t common to see luxury cars here.

After the car stopped, a young and attractive woman got off, waved goodbye, and tossed the bouquet she received from a man into the trash can before heading into the village.

But after only a few steps, two headlights shone from behind. Thinking she was blocking the road, she quickly moved aside.

The car slowly drove up to her and stopped. The window rolled down, and a polite looking man asked, “Are you Lucilla Preston?”

The woman hesitated for a moment, “Yes, who are you?”

The man replied gently. “Our boss wants to talk to you, are you available?”

Lucilla looked wary, “Who’s your boss?”

The man said, “Our boss was the recipient of Mr. Campbell’s email today. You’ve heard of him, right?”
