| was relieved and discreetly thanked my lucky stars. Today, | saw Nick as my benefactor, even though | had just complained about him a few days ago.

“Mr. Atticus, did you just arrive?” Nick smiled at Atticus, then turned and added, “Mr. Bryan, it's been a while!” Immediately after, | told Atticus and Bryan, “I'll excuse myself for a moment.” Setting down my wine glass, | took out my phone and pretended to make a call.
