Maggie beamed a bright smile, "You got this!"
Sylvia's eyes crinkled with gratitude, "Thanks!"

In a quiet corner, Gabriel took the call, "What's going on?"
"Gab!" The voice on the line was serious, "We've hit a snag and had to let you know!"
Gabriel's voice remained steady, "Go ahead."
"Sean and one of Giles' men, Mario, got caught dealing arms on the side. Giles found out and nabbed both of them."
Gabriel frowned, "When did this happen?"
"Five days ago. We knew you were celebrating the New Year, so we held off telling you until now."
"What's the situation now?"
"Word is, Mario took a severe beating from Giles. Giles spared Sean because of you, but he's not releasing him or meeting with our people. He says he'll only talk to you in person."
Gabriel's expression turned icy, "I'm heading back tonight."
"We'll be waiting for you!"
After hanging up, Gabriel found Estelle and said,
"There's been a bit of trouble. I'm leaving for Tripe tonight. I'll stop by to say goodbye to Grandpa first, but I won't disturb everyone else while they're having fun."
Estelle was taken aback, "Is it that urgent? What happened?"
"Sean's in Giles' hands. It doesn't look good," Gabriel replied.
Estelle frowned, "Sean?"
Gabriel's face was resolute, "Don't worry. I'll get him out. If my people betray me, I'm the one who deals with them, not anyone else."
Jonathan, having overheard part of the conversation, walked over, "Need a hand?"
"No need!" Gabriel responded.
"Leaving tonight?"
