She didn't know why, but the garden had become her new favorite spot. Lena loved helping the gardener water the flowers. The new lady of the house recently learned that Mrs. Smith is one of the workers that had served her husband's family the longest.

The kind gardener had told her many tales of her husband's naughty childhood. Slowly, Lena started to get to know the workers in the mansion better.

Unlike other people, The Phantom does not practice slavery.

He does not have any slaves. All he had were workers—people who work with him and got paid monthly.

Before he was even born, The Phantom's family had prepared a few blocks of buildings not too far from their mansion. Those buildings were built specifically for their workers. Each family would get an apartment.

That would explain why most workers there had served The Phantom's family for ages.

Lena's husband never seemed to fail in surprising her. She had to admit. The Phantom is one of a kind.

A little smile crept on her face when the young lady Luthor saw how the waterdrops on the flowers' petals sparkled as the sun shown above them.

Out of nowhere, just above her knee, Lena could feel a soft pull on her dress. The young lady turned around, and instantly she was met with a pair of glazing blue orbs.

"Gabriel?"

Lena asked in such a soft, almost whispering tone.

The little boy took a step away from her. Standing neatly in his tailor-made suit, Gabriel rubbed the back of his neck before pulling something out of his pocket. Lena already knew what it was.

It was a letter from her husband.

She never knew how or where Gabriel got all of his letters from, but he was always the one who gave the phantom's message to her.

Carefully, the little boy handed the letter to Lena. With a smile, Lena took the note from him. Gabriel never said a word to her. She didn't know if it was because he was mute or he is just shy. She hoped it was the latter.

"Thank you very much, Gabriel. Why don't you go to the kitchen and ask for some sweets from Tania?"

A huge grin appears on the little boy's face. He nodded happily as he skipped his way to the kitchen—all without saying anything to Lena.

Once Gabriel could no longer be seen from where she was standing, Lena's attention turned to the letter in her hands. Her brows furrowed in confusion.

It wasn't a letter from her husband.

The phantom's letter was always sealed with a golden K.D  seal. The one in her hands did not have such a seal, but instead, it had one with a typical plain red wax.

To put an end to her confusion, Lena quickly read the letter.

She was right. It was not a letter from The Phantom. It is an invitation to visit Phantom Trade's main headquarter in London and have a meeting with the officers there.

Phantom Trade...

Now, where had she heard that name before? Oh, yeah, it was the name of her husband's company.

But that didn't make any sense... These types of meetings rarely involved women. Most of the time, only men are involved in those kinds of meetings. Lena is a girl so that she couldn't be involved in that meeting.

They must have meant the letter for her husband... But, then, it is written in that letter that it is for her.

Lena's brows furrowed in confusion.
