Recognizing the potential opportunity, Cecilia promptly readied herself, heading directly to the club, bypassing time with her children.
This industry magnate, known for her vast network, expressed interest in recruiting Harrison from Rena'’s firm and hoped to Leverage Cecilia's connections.
In the dimly lit private room, Cecilia listened carefully to the agent's request. After pondering for a moment, she responded with a smile, “Amelia, it’s not that I'm unwilling to assist. However, you might need to discuss this directly with my sister-in-law or perhaps even my brother. You see, Harrison — he’s unique in certain ways.” She hesitated, unable to divulge the entirety of Harrison's significance.

Walking through the corridor, Cecilia clutched her phone, contemplating reaching out to Mark, especially given their long hiatus since their poignant night together. Was it time to let him know of her return? But as she deliberated, a door opposite her opened, revealing Mark, a hint of tobacco on him, mingled with a delicate women's fragrance.
Peering inside, Cecilia observed a mixed gathering, among whom was Elaine, with an unoccupied seat beside her — presumably Mark's.
Their eyes met, and in a hushed tone, Cecilia inquired, “Did someone seat you there on purpose?” Without waiting for a response, she continued to the restroom.
She turned on the faucet, letting the water run over her hands in contemplative silence.
