Tension

A few hours after the conversation with Jacqueline.

Space twisted around Lith's table and alerted everyone present. 

Lith put his guard up, but it proved to be unnecessary when he had a glimpse of a red-haired beauty in black dress.

Keith arrived holding Zhao Shi at her sides and got quite the looks from everyone.

"Mom!" 

On her daughter's call, Keith turned to look at her. 

Fanny smiled warmly when she noticed her mother and called her towards her side to sit. 

Keith unknowingly carried Shi with her, and before this could be called out by Lith, something felt off by him and everyone present. 

The warped space should've gone back to normal after Keith had arrived, but it did not. 

Their curiosity didn't have to wait for long as a tall, handsome man with a slender build soon walked out of it, surprising everyone present. 

"Huh? Roy!?" Jacqueline widened her eyes in surprise when she saw him.
