Unexpected Discovery

I slid to answer the call, "Hello! Ms. Harris!"

"Do you have time? Come out for a bit, I have something to tell you!" She was very straightforward.

I paused for a moment, "Sure! Where to?"

"It's about lunchtime, let's have a meal together!" She thought for a moment, "Come to Harli Road, there's a Chinese restaurant here. I'll wait for you!"

I hung up and headed straight to Harli Road, curious about the quaintly named eatery she mentioned.

As expected, it was a small, albeit tidy, establishment with no parking in front, so I parked across the street and crossed over to the restaurant.

The place was small, but the interior was quite neat. I didn't see Vivian Harris initially. Just as I was about to call her to confirm, I heard a call from a narrow staircase to one side, "Grace!"

I looked up and saw her motioning me to come over. I hurriedly followed her upstairs.
