It had all happened quickly. A junior staff member—one who'd been quietly watching the commotion from across the room—had slipped away to make a call. Minutes later, a well-dressed man in his late forties entered the showroom with purposeful steps. His name tag read Gregory – Sales Manager.
He approached Vincent, brows slightly furrowed, and asked what was going on. Vincent immediately leaned in, explaining the incident in a low voice. Then came the whisper—Cass couldn't hear it, but she caught the way Gregory's expression shifted the moment Vincent mentioned that the boy's mother was a former buyer. A "valuable client."
That was all it took.
