Mario Yuno could tell from Kiara's surprise that the caller was no ordinary person. He had leaned in, intending to listen to the conversation, when he saw Kiara utter several affirmatives with an increasingly serious expression.
Before Mario Yuno could ask any questions, his own phone rang as well.
The couple, one on the balcony and the other in the living room, each answered their own calls. Calling Mario Yuno was Edward Farmbright.
"Yes, we already know about it. He came looking for my Kiara."
Mario Yuno said to Eldest Brother. It turned out Edward Farmbright was also talking about the matter of gambling lives in a competition.
The two of them chatted for a while, and Kiara's call ended as well.
The expressions on both their faces were grave. Mario Yuno came over and asked,
"Who was it?"
"Someone...you would never expect." Kiara rubbed her temples, wondering what twisted fate had made today the worst first day.
"Who?"
"Grace Little Phoenix Bradford, remember her?"
