Chapter 174: TO THE FUTURE

UNLIKE the other day when Astrid went here, there were more people present in the building.  Probably because it's close to lunch time.  As always, he still received many people's attention.  But he quickly noticed that it was a bit more than usual.  He suspected that it was because of Ellis.  A number of the people they passed by definitely recognized her.  Especially those other agents.

The conversations he heard along the way were all the same. 

"Is that really Ellis Payne?  The former agent of Olivia Crane?  Didn't she disappear suddenly five years ago?  What is she doing here?"

"Haven't you heard?  She's going to work here as a new agent."

"Really?  Then, that teenager with her should be her artist?"

"Most likely.  With that appearance, there's no way he's not a newcomer."
