Still carrying the black envelope, Vaughn reaches their residence. Thinking of how is she going to call her crew, Now that she and Rade is still not speaking to each other. At times when gathering their crew together, Rade is the one she calls.

Dropping her things before knocking on her father's office, clutching on the pitch black envelope.

"What?" Luvox's voice was heard on the other side.

"It's Vaughn, sir. Can I come in?" She speaks.

"Is it about work?" Luvox ask. For he knows that Vaughn only addresses her father 'sir' when it's related to work obligations.

Vaughn takes this as a cue to enter the quiet atmosphere inside her father's office.

"Yes, sir" Vaughn reaches out the black envelope she's holding.

Luvox had a furrowed expression before taking it in his hands. The engraved logo on the wax seal caught Luvox off guard.

Still with the same expression, he looks at his daughter, “Where did you get this?” He asks.
