Difficult decisions

Lex was about to return to the Midnight Inn when he sensed a gaze fall on him. If someone even as much as thought about him within 100 miles of his body, Lex would be able to sense, which is why it was so easy for him to detect someone looking at him.

Much more than that, Lex even sensed the emotions within the gaze. They were filled with curiosity, but much more than that, they were filled with a competitive spirit.

"How was it? Did you find what you were looking for?" Lex asked, even before Giselle revealed herself.

"Unfortunately not," said the ballerina, without divulging that he was responsible for that failure. Even then, Lex could easily surmise what had happened.

"If you don't mind me asking, is there something specific that you're hoping to achieve by finding such obscure treasures? Maybe I can help you out."

Giselle shook her head.
