Cynthia stared at Miley for a moment, then put down her fork and knife, picked up her coffee cup, and casually asked, "Any news from San Heith?"
"No," Miley answered almost without hesitation or any sign of thought.
However, her behavior immediately confirmed Cynthia's suspicion.
"Go ahead and eat," Cynthia said as she put down her coffee and stood up.
Seeing Cynthia get up, Miley quickly followed suit. "Miss Shannon, where are you going?"
"To change clothes in my room," Cynthia replied with a faint smile, patting Miley's shoulder. "You stay here, I'll be back soon."
Once back in her room, Cynthia immediately pulled out her phone and dialed Jacob's number. "What's going on in San Heith recently?"
On the other end of the line, Jacob put out his cigarette in the ashtray. "Everything is fine at home, don't worry."
