When Samantha ended the call, she let out a sigh–the conversation reminded her of the past. 

“Ah… you really haven’t changed one bit,” she commented, looking at her phone. 

“Mom.” She looked up to see her son walking into her office while reading some papers. “They just sent me the 

report with the quotes for the new tiles you want for the collection,” he said, handing her the 

papers. 

“That fast? Let me see,” she said excitedly, reading through the reports. 

“They said they could be ready in four days since it’s a simple design and they already have the geometric molds. It won’t be a challenge for the artisans,” he said, noticing the happiness in his mother’s eyes. 

“I know, and the best part is that this style is trending in the interior design world,” she said. “If they can make them quickly, it means a great profit for us. We’ll also continue offering our basic plain designs: the ones that look like paint splatters and those that imitate wood, marble, or stone.” 

“Well, Mom, you’re the expert in this,” Jayden said, seeing his mother’s excitement. “By the way, it’s my turn to pick up James and Elizabeth today. Do you want to join us for lunch? Dad’s supervising the apartment construction.” 

“I’d love to, son, but I have a date.” 

“What? A date? With who?” he asked, frowning slightly 

“Well, it looks like that kidnapping won’t be necessary after all,” she said, standing up and signing the papers before handing them to him. “Here, tell Jimmy to send the production order to the factory so we can stock up. I’m sure a lot of stores will be placing orders.” 

“Oh, right. I’ll tell him,” Jayden said, taking the papers. “But… um… who’s your date with?” 

“I’m having lunch with Gabriel.” 

Jayden’s eyes widened, but Samantha didn’t get the chance to ask or say anything because he quickly left the office. 

“Huh?” Samantha was puzzled by his reaction but didn’t have time to think it over, as her son soon returned, now accompanied by his father, both looking slightly upset. 

“What do you mean you’re meeting with that guy?” Eric protested, grabbing her hands 

“Yeah, Brandon, I guess you don’t need to go through with it anymore,” Jayden said into his phone. 

“God… hahaha, you two really are the kings of drama,” Samantha said, amused. 

“We sure are! If that guy tried to hurt our grandson, a child… I don’t even want to imagine what he’d do to you if you refused him, and I don’t-“Eric began to say, his worry evident, but Samantha cut him off with a kiss on the lips. “Honey…” Eric said, slightly taken aback. 

“Someone’s been watching too many crime and suspense series,” she said, caressing his face. 

“But-

“Eric, nothing bad will happen to me. And Jayden, hang up that call. Don’t bother your friend with this.” 

“But…” Both blond men complained, looking worried. 

“I agreed to have lunch with him to talk about everything he’s been doing and put an end to it.” 

“But, my love, we don’t even know if he-” 

“Exactly, Mom. What if he tries to hurt you?” 

“Listen, both of you, calm down…” she said, holding her son’s hand. “I’ll be in a public place, and we’re just going to talk, okay?” 

Both men made a face, still uncertain, as she let go of their hands. 

“Well, see you tonight,” she said, kissing them on the cheek before walking to the door. 

“Samantha…” 

“Don’t worry, my love. Trust me, and I’ll see you tonight,” she said, leaving the office without looking back. 

Eric and Jayden were still worried, so they made some calls for backup as they made up their mind to follow Samantha closely. They were determined to protect her and finally meet this Gabriel, who had been causing so many problems. 

Jayden decided to call Deborahh to explain the situation and ask her for two favors: to pick up the kids and to lend them Max in case things got rough. 

Luckily, Deborah managed to get organized quickly and confirmed that she would pick up the kids. She just asked Jayden to be careful and not do anything crazy 

When they arrived at the restaurant, they saw Samantha being dropped off by the driver. They watched her go in and be shown to a specific table. 

They parked their car, and upon entering, found Max waiting for them. He offered each of them a wig so Samantha wouldn’t recognize them. 

The good thing was that the restaurant wasn’t very crowded that day, so they managed to find a table without a reservation, one right next to Samantha’s. That way, they could keep an eye on her and listen in on the conversation.
