Both individuals descended the stairs together, spiritedly discussing where to go for a little corruption.
Suddenly, a car slowly approached from the roadside.
John Coleman immediately stretched out his hand to protect Amelia Shallow.
The menacing phone call still lingered in his ears.
He was quite uncertain whether the other party had truly let go of Amelia.
Amelia, too, began to feel wary.
Both of them possessed highly sensitive intuition and could clearly sense that the car was headed for them.
True to their instincts, the car stopped right in front of them.
A middle-aged man alighted from the vehicle, looked at Amelia, smiled faintly, and then bowed, "May I inquire if you are Mr. Shallow?"
"Yes, that's me. What is it?" Amelia asked, puzzled.
The middle-aged man replied politely, "I am the housekeeper of the Shaw Family, and at the request of my master, I would like to invite Mr. Shallow to join us for dinner at our place. We hope you will honor us with your presence."
