The man across from me noticed me as well. I saw his eyes tighten momentarily before fixing on my face. I didn't avoid his gaze and stared back at him.
Eventually, he averted his eyes and said something to the person behind him.
As we passed each other, he deliberately glanced at me again, and the corner of his mouth inexplicably lifted.
That man was none other than Denton.
The group of people who were with him didn't seem to be from Old Bourdamun. All of them, including a foreigner who was with them, seemed interested in everything in this place.
I thought to myself, when will Denton step into the limelight? I would be able to have a direct encounter with him then.
Unexpectedly, this opportunity had arrived quickly. We had all stepped from the shadows into the light, changing our respective destinies.
After leaving the restaurant, I said goodbye to Fred and got into our car with Ryan.
I felt a pair of eyes watching me from a corner.
In the car, Tris asked, "Did you know that man, Madam?"
I nodded, as it seemed Tris had already sensed something unusual.
"Yes, I do. He's the son of the former leader of Old Bourdamun," I said, truthfully.
"Denton Terrell?" Tris immediately said.
He glanced at me in the rearview mirror and continued, "I understand!"
Ryan said, "That guy seems like he’s up to something. There's a sinister vibe in his eyes."
