Ash's Provocative Gaze

"Empress! I missed you so much! Come quickly! I'm starving!" Emma heard Quiana yell into the phone and burst out laughing, forgetting the displeasure from earlier.

"Alright, alright. I'm on my way." Emma muttered a few exchanges with both of them before hanging up.

Once Ash saw she was done, he shook his head and said with a tired smile, "That girl is too restless. I'm sure Mom and Dad don't know about her coming here. Come, let's go."

Emma laughed and nodded.

They put the issue before them aside temporarily as they went to pick up Rebecca and Quiana from the airport.

However, they didn't notice a frigid gaze followed after them.

Inside the coffee shop, Daniel's hands clenched into a fist, his anger rising to a boiling point as he watched Emma and Ash leave together.
