Separated from the ballroom, William, Mark, and his wife entered the VIP room together. The atmosphere around them seemed relaxed, although the tension was still felt.
"Oh, William, this is Gaby, my wife!" Mark introduced his wife to William. "I forgot to introduce her to you earlier."
"Hey, Gaby! Nice to meet you," William greeted Gaby and offered his hand, initiating the handshake to the gorgeous red-haired woman. She accepted his hand and answered his greeting in a friendly manner, the total opposite of her husband. The three of them then sat around the table and the waiter immediately served water and the appetizers for them.
"Personally, I really want to thank you for your effort for my son," Mark said with a genuine smile. The first smile William saw. "I am really happy finding him."
"The pleasure is mine," William replied with an equally sincere smile. "This is because your son is very brave. He asked me for help in person."
