Magdalen Sampson had plans to go out that evening, but one of her friends called unexpectedly. “Magdalen, I just remembered—the Winters family is having their fiftieth anniversary celebration tonight. They sent me an invitation and it totally slipped my mind. I’ll swing by to make an appearance, so I’ll be a bit late.”
Magdalen assured her it was fine, but after the call, her thoughts lingered on the Winters family’s milestone event.
The Winters family collaborated with Sylvia’s company, so Sylvia was sure to attend the celebration. And those people from the Winters family…
An idea struck Magdalen. She called Gabriel. “Gabriel, are you still in J City?”
Gabriel was driving. He replied calmly, “Yes, I am. What’s up?”
Magdalen’s tone was warm and pleasant. “Gabriel, the Winters family is celebrating their fiftieth anniversary tonight. I was supposed to go with Sylvia, but I’m completely swamped today. Can you go and accompany her for me?”
Gabriel’s gaze darkened slightly, but his voice remained cool. “I understand. Where is it?”
Magdalen quickly scrolled through Facebook. Sure enough, people in their J City social circle were already posting photos.
She instantly recognized the hotel from the banquet hall décor. “I’ll send you the address. Thanks, Gabriel!”
“No problem.”
Gabriel hung up, checked the time, and turned his car at the next intersection, heading toward the hotel.
