Already burdened with having to take care of her family, Scarlet now finds herself being forced to listen to the many reasons why her marriage failed.

Secret (3)

When Victor finally entered the doors, he found something that was unlike what he had overheard his parents describe it to be. Ian's business was described as one filled with drunks and smaller than what he was seeing now. One that would embarrass the Kingsley name but he didn't see that. 

Victor had sat in plenty of bars with his friends and those had men being lifted out because of their behaviour. Men of high status were the ones being carried out. This one was more calm.

"Where is he?" Victor wondered, looking around for Ian. He hoped that he had not finally gained the courage to be here and Ian was not present. "Excuse me," he approached one of the guards. "Where can I find Ian Kingsley? I am his brother. Is his location not to be shared?" Victor asked as the guards didn't give him a response.
