Without missing a beat, Sophie took charge. "Timothy, you can start by preparing lunch. But here at Mr. Odie's house, all meals are made from fresh ingredients. So, you'll need to drive to the farmers' market three kilometers away for vegetables, then head to the seafood market 3.8 kilometers away for seafood, and finally, visit the butcher five kilometers away for fresh meat before coming back to cook."

"Weird, why do you have James's number? What're you calling him for?" "It's for business. You wouldn't derstand. I'll make the call in private. And don't mention awelabout what just happened else..." Angelo made a throat-slitting gesture.
Sandy rolled her eyes. What was so secretive about calling James?
Angelo retreated to his room and dialed James's number. James m picked up almost immediately. "Is something wrong with Sophie?" "Big bro, can you not start every call by asking if someone's in Even if there wasn't an jinx it into happening Joe
