When Professor MacPherson was closer to the hideout, he parked his car, alighted from the vehicle and walked towards the entryway. “Good evening, professor MacPherson,” the gangsters chorused. “Good evening, guys,” professor MacPherson said and stood in-between Charles and Dickson. “I hope you had a nice day?” Charles said. “I should have, but it was strenuous due to my tight schedule,” professor MacPherson said and gazed at Charles’ face. “I am so sorry about that, professor MacPherson,” Charles said. “Thank you very much. What is that thing we couldn’t discuss on the phone?” Professor MacPherson said with curiosity. Charles smiled and said, “Have you heard about the return of the saviors?” “The return of the saviors?

Besides, we won’t live in this state anymore. We will go to Maryland,” professor MacPherson said. “Maryland? How are we going to survive there?” Charlotte said. “We survived here in California, so we will definitely survive in Maryland too. I have a close friend there; he will be of great help to us,” professor MacPherson said. “And how will you do your lecturing career?” C

He stood up from his chair, moved closer to Charlotte and kissed her on her forehead. “Goodbye, Charlotte,” professo

He walked slowly towards the bed, sat down and said, “Davies, is this the script you are writing?” “Well, I was writing the script before Ethan walked into the room,” Davies said with a smile. “And you two have been discussing since then?” Liam said. “Davies started the conversations,” Ethan said. “Why must you lie; aren’t you the one who said you enjoyed yourselves at the eatery?” Davies said with glare. “It’s okay, Davies; I will give you my ice cream,” Liam said. “Really?” Davies said. “Yes, I will,” Liam said. “Thank you very much for the gesture,” Davies said, and Ethan laughed. “And why are you laughing?” Liam said with glare. “I don’t know you are this benevolent,” Ethan said and Liam hissed. “Do you think Liam is like you, stingy lad?” Davies said. “It’s okay. Let’s go and watch a film,” Liam said and stood up from the bed. “Mum told me to

Since three of you are going to California today, I have organized a mini-party and it’s starting anytime from now,” Aubrey said. She gazed at Liam, Ethan and Davies’ faces simultaneously. “Really? Thank you very much, mum,” Liam said. “It’s a thank you from me too, mum,” Ethan said. “You are welcome. So, Sadie and I will be going to the kitchen now to prepare something. I want the three of you to tidy up the clutter on time,” Aubrey said. “Alright, mum,” the juveniles chorused euphorically. “Now, Sadie, let’s go to the kitchen,” Aubrey said and walked away in the company of Sadie. “Guys, it’s time to tidy up the clutter,” Davies said and stood up from the couch. As soon as the juveniles finished tidying up the clutter, Ethan said, “We need to bathe now.” “You are right, Ethan. Go and take care of yourself in the bathroom; Davies and I will do ours later,” Liam said as he gazed
