Inne nodded, “Goodbye.”
Stefan walked to his car, and the driver respectfully opened the door.
Stefan turned back to smile at frene before getting in the car

Meanwhile,
in the car setan’s expression was no longer the light and gentle one he had when facing Trene: “Deal with those people. We’ll talk about the rest when I get there.”

Irene smiled, washed her hands, and sat at the table.
Emma brought the tood over and sat next to Irene.
Madame Kashi suddenly remembered something. “Your friend had a lot of things delivered today. They looked expensive. Find time to return them.”
Following Madame Kashi’s gaze, Irene noticed a pile of boxes in the corner.
“That’s a massage chair, a fridge, a TV, and a dishwasher… Emma introduced.
Madame Kashi looked at Irene with a kind gaze, “He must have noticed our family’s situation and wanted to help by sending practical things.”
Emma blinked.

Madame Kashi patted Emma’s head. “You both have suttered with me.”

Emma nodded vigorously beside Irene,
Madame Keshi laughed, “Irene, I’ve decided. Let’s open a detective agency as you suggested.”
Irene smiled, pouring Madame Kashi a cup of tea, “Great! Just yesterday, the government officially approved the reopening of detective agencies.”
Madame Kashi pulled out a bank card and handed it to Irene, “This is the money I’ve saved over the years. Use it for whatever is needed to set up the agency, buy what you need, and get the necessary licenses.”

Madame Kashi nodded, hearing Irene say, “It’s okay, Grandma. Answer it. Emma and 1 are here with you.

“I heard you want to open a detective agency?” Helen’s sharp, mocking voice came through, “Give it up! You’ve caused deaths and still dare to open one?” *You’re just embarassing us!”
Madame Rash suppressed her anger, “It’s none of your business,”
“How is it not my business? Have you forgotten your granddaughter is back? Isn’t it too much to show no regard for your granddaughter? I think that house would be a good start.

Helen sneered. “You treat that impostor so well. Opening an agency and pulling strings for her.”
Madame kasha’s fingers tumed red with anger.
“Let me tell you, even if you want that impostor, don’t use the Kashi name for her! I heard you’re borrowing money from the David family? Dugam on!”
