An SUV pulled into the parking lot of the most luxurious hotel in the city. Edward Martin got off first, followed by two young men. When the three walked together, it was evident that the two young men had an air of arrogance about them.
Phoenix Taylor, who had been waiting there, greeted them charmingly.
"Clarence, Ryan, hello." Phoenix's face was full of smiles.
The two young men looked at Phoenix with a strange glint in their eyes.
Rhett Martin, who was leading the group, held Phoenix's hand for a long time and said, "Phoenix, you're looking more beautiful than ever!"
"Oh, stop it, Clarence. I'm not that pretty!"
Edward Martin laughed and said, "Clarence, let's sit down."
Oren Martin also held Phoenix's hand and said, "Your entry into our Thompson Family has been approved. Now you are one of us. When we're at the Thompson Family, I'll show you around."
"Please take care of me then."
