Arabella Vanderbilt slowly turned her head, her gaze passing over Joel Russo, who continued to eat elegantly as if nothing was amiss, and looked towards Vincent standing at the door.

Another bout of silence ensued.
Vincent, with his serious yet slightly sullen eyes, also blinked.

Vincent felt a sudden tingling at his scalp.
Steven lightly placed his chopsticks down, squinting at him, "Special Assistant Vincent, are you planning to rebel?"
Vincent felt a jolt in his heart and turned to look at Joel Russo, who was leisurely eating beside him.
"Sir... the criminal... ran... ran away?"
Joel Russo set his chopsticks down and elegantly wiped his mouth with a napkin.
"Criminal?!"
Ruth Wills suddenly shouted, "It's been just us here from the start, where did a criminal come from?!"
