The conversation with Lumy didn't last much longer after she agreed to look into the golden-eyed man. She wasn't the type for long, drawn-out small talk, and the three of them could tell she preferred to get straight to work once she had the details.
After finishing their drinks, Andrey stood up first. "Thank you for your time tonight. We'll wait for your contact."
Lumy gave a small nod from her seat, adjusting her glasses. "I'll reach out as soon as I find something. Don't expect miracles overnight."
Hope smiled brightly as she got up as well. "We know. Still, thank you, Lumy."
Lisa bowed her head politely. "Sorry again for coming so late."
Lumy didn't say anything else, but as they walked toward the door, she gave one last glance toward Andrey still a little awkward, though her expression had mostly returned to its usual serious calm.
Once they were outside in the hallway and the door had closed behind them, Hope let out a small breath and stretched her arms above her head.
