"Our son just came home and told me he fell for a girl at the club, and he even wants to marry her!" Elena cried out frantically.
"He's clearly been conned by that woman. He's completely lost his mind."
"I say we nip this in the bud and pay her off to avoid a catastrophe."
Warren frowned, tossing his tie onto the back of the sofa. "Is that what he told you?"
"He admitted it himself! I couldn't bear to look at him, so I kicked him out. I went to ask Sebastian, and Sebastian covered for him. We need to throw some money at this quickly before he ruins his life completely."
"The kind of money this requires isn't something that can be fixed with just a small check," Warren comforted her. "Stay out of this. Don't believe a single word he says. I'll deal with him."
Elena stated firmly, "Well, I'm laying down the law right now. I will absolutely never give my blessing to a girl from a club."
"I know. Our son is grown up and has his own mind. As parents, we can only do our best. If he insists on that path, it's his fate. We can only do what's humanly possible and leave the rest to heaven."
Elena slapped him playfully in frustration. "What kind of nonsense is that? That common escort is absolutely out of the question! I could accept a normal, decent girl, but I simply cannot accept a woman like that."
Warren pulled his wife into his arms. "Don't worry. There is no common escort. It's all just a smokescreen. He doesn't want you to know the truth, so don't stress yourself out over it.
Elena felt terrible. "He inherited my foolish romanticism. He didn't get any of the good traits."
Warren held her hand. "Whatever happens, I'm here to hold down the fort."

Zane left work early again today to go find Elara.
Seeing him approach, Aaron stood up immediately.
Zane put a finger to his lips, gesturing for him to stay quiet.
Since there was only a cleaner inside, Aaron didn't announce his arrival.
Elara was just about to open her door when it suddenly swung inward, startling her.
Seeing it was Zane, Elara looked surprised. "Why are you here?"
