She smiled brightly for the photos, and her braids looked cuter than ever. Lily was in her prime, after all, so there was no need to turn on any filters, for she was naturally beautiful. She stared at her photos for a moment before turning her phone off. The photo was posted. despite her knowing nobody would see it, as she didn’t have a friend list anyway. All the people on her friend list were members of the Taylor Family, though she wondered if they had unfriended her.
She kept on watching until night had fully descended, and the noise had escalated. Then, she stretched herself fully and went out at her own pace.

When the staff noticed her, he came up and asked. “Are you alone, miss? Take a seat over here.” He pointed at a table.
It was rare to see a table with only four people, and all of them were women. Lily nodded. “Thank you.” She then went to take her seat. The women were probably in a clique, so they only glanced at Lily before resuming their conversation. Even so, she remained unperturbed as she poured herself a glass of wine and leaned back to enjoy.

Lily turned around and smiled at him. Her phone was on the table before her, and it vibrated a couple of times. It was a message from Samson, and he only sent a request for her to share her location. Lily didn’t know this function existed, though she saw the yes or no button. Initially, she wanted to decline the request, but something struck her, so she accepted it.
