The car slowly pulled away.

Abdul seemed to deflate, wiping his face before turning to Hector. “Mr. Hector,” he said, “I came in a hurry and I’m

leaving just as fast. Once I’ve sorted out the contract issues, I’ll come back to H City and treat you to dinner.”

“Good luck,” Hector replied, nodding with a genial smile.

After exchanging a few more words, Abdul departed in a rush.

Hector watched his retreating figure before heading to his Maserati.

Once inside, he ran his hands gently over the steering wheel, seemingly lost in thought. After a while, he started the

car and drove away from Bane Corp Center.d2

Inside another car, Rosalynn was playing with Wayne’s hand.

“A business could take decades to build, but it could crumble in an instant,” she murmured, thinking of the Strand

Group’s downfall.

“I knew things were bad over there, but I didn’t realize they had gotten to this point,” Wayne agreed.

“If Jacob doesn’t hurry back, there’s going to be serious trouble,” Rosalynn sighed.

Back at home, Rosalynn and Wayne were about to leave the elevator when Jaime rushed up, blocking their way.

“No entry to the first floor for you two. Back to the third floor, please.”

Rosalynn was speechless, but Wayne was smiling. “Is this supposed to be a surprise?”

“The point of a surprise is that you don’t know it’s coming,.” Jaime replied, sounding rather disgusted. He then

pressed the button for the third floor and waved as the elevator doors closed.

“Did you smell that?” Rosalynn asked Wayne, who shrugged helplessly. “Burnt food.”

The couple shared a knowing smile.

Meanwhile, in the kitchen, Ivy was fully equipped and standing on a stool, carefully flipping the vegetables in the

pan. “Didn’t burn it this time!” she cheered, looking at the still-green veggies.

Today marked her father’s first day back at work. Her brother’s Al program had been making a lot of money for

their dad, and Ivy wanted to do something for him. After some thought, she decided to surprise her parents with a

home-cooked dinner.

Ivy’s life motto was if you’re going to do something, do it right. So, she planned a meal with four meat dishes, two

vegetable dishes, a soup, and even dessert and a fruit platter.

The meat dishes were potato stir-fry with meat strips, tomato beef stew, steamed salmon, and prawns sautéed in

garlic butter. The veggies included a seaweed salad and stir-fried vegetables. The soup she chose was a comforting

chicken noodle soup that Rosalynn had started before leaving the house. For dessert, Ivy made a cream pudding, a

dish she’d already mastered. The fruit platter was a bit of a rush job and consisted of whole fruits arranged on a

plate.

As Ivy was all set to go, Rosalynn and Wayne were summoned downstairs, absolutely stunned by the setup.

“Did you make all these?” Rosalynn was taken aback, looking at her daughter.

Though it wasn’t unusual for Cory and Ivy to assist in the kitchen, the meal she’d prepared was nothing short of

impressive.

Rosalynn had expected a few simple dishes at best.

“Uncle Calvin and Laura helped too!” Ivy was quick to share the credit.

Seeing this, Calvin immediately clarified, “We merely assisted. Ivy led the entire process!”d2

– Laura nodded in agreement with gusto.
