Chapter 660

"We will open the gallery, and in one hour we will present our latest addition to our collection.

Lawrence took the opportunity to chat with Hannah and Gabriella as they slowly moved forward and the ladies were quite enjoying themselves. Their delight increased when Ron Leopold arrived and invited himself to join them.
• "Mr. Shepherd! How surprising to bump into you here!" Ron said.
