"She's with Spark now. They are in a car together and they've driven off," he informed in a blank voice.

"They're gone? Where are they going?" the other voice on the phone asked.

"I don't know yet. Either way, I called to tell you so you can change your plan accordingly. After all, who would want their wife to be seen spending the day with another man?

"How can you be so sure?" the voice asked sarcastically.

He snorted in response. "Don't forget your promise, I'll be waiting for my money today,"

Then he hung up the phone without waiting for a response. Meanwhile, Hannah was still holding her phone against her ear, her eyes glinting.

"You look happy, what was that call about?" Jennifer said when she saw her absorbing in her own revery. Then her eyes dilated as if she just realized something, "Looks like you just found a way to win Brian back," she suggested.

Hannah shrugged, "It's not that, it's just..." she trailed off, suddenly realizing that she didn't want to tell anyone her plans until she was sure about it. She grinned sheepishly at Jennifer and said, "Just let it go. So, how are things between you and Mayor Gu?" Jennifer averted Hannah's gaze.
