Your leg alright now?)

Mirabella sent the text and waited a couple of minutes, but with no reply, she put
her phone. down and went about her business.

She rummaged through her closet and pulled out a set of workout gear, glancing
down to adjust the watch on her wrist before unzipping her backpack to check its
contents. Shortly after, she stepped out of her room, ready for the day ahead.
Meanwhile, James had just finished giving Instructions to his crew and was
lounging on the couch, rubbing his temples in apparent fatigue.

Wyatt, noticing James" weariness, asked in a low, concerned voice. “Is

James took a moment to rest his eyes before responding. “I'm fine.”

Wyatt hesitated. His gaze fell on James" calf before he thought better of it and

James texted, [Let me know when the results are out]

James asked. [When's your flight back?]

The Pill said, [Tonight at seven.

James paused briefly, then simply texted back, [Safe travels home]

pallor on his otherwise flawless face that was nearly imperceptible unless you
looked closely. He said to Wyatt. “Get the car ready.”

Scratching his head, Wyatt asked, “You heading to the gallery?”

“Yeah,” James replied casually, standing up from the sofa. As he rose, a sharp

through his call, but it vanished as quickly as it had appeared, almost as if it had
been an

illusion.

James brow furrowed slightly.

Wyatt, noticing the subtle change in James expression, couldn't help but ask,
“Something wrong?"

“It's alright.” James shook his head and strode towards the door, with Wyatt
following closely behind.
