The next day, Talon waited at the agreed-upon spot with Claire, a serene city park that offered a peaceful atmosphere for meetings. Claire had mentioned she wanted to see him for a few minutes, hinting at something she wished to do and expressing gratitude if he could make time for her.
Talon was seated on an iron bench in the park when a sleek black car approached.
"It must be Claire," he thought, smiling as he stood up to greet the vehicle.
As the passenger side door swung open, Claire emerged. Her long, straight blonde hair, stylish sunglasses, and a long coat that reached her feet painted a picture of elegance. She exuded a sense of class that was unmistakably hers.
"Hi, Talon," she greeted cheerfully, removing her sunglasses and offering him a warm smile.
Talon slowly made his way towards her, coming to stand in front of her. "Hey, Claire... It's great to see you, but this is a surprise."
