Upon hearing the name 'Rivera Group', the bartender's expression changed immediately. He led them to a booth and even brought two glasses of water, saying, "Please wait a moment. I'll get our boss right away."

Melody felt a bit uneasy. She never interacted with such a bigwig before, and she was about to become the wife of one for a year. She had no clue what challenges the upcoming year might come her way.

Our bar is quite large, and we have multiple cameras. Could you please let me know the specific areas you'd like to review?"

Edmund turned to Melody.

The bar owner promptly had a laptop brought over and played the surveillance footage for them.
