Marvin Mitchell arrived just before evening, and Martin Riley wasn't home yet. Crystal Foster was in the middle of dinner with Otto when she heard about Marvin's visit, and she was taken aback.
"Marvin Mitchell? Why would he come over at this time?" she wondered. Could it be to discuss a business deal with Martin?
"Prepare some tea and invite him in," Crystal instructed, telling Otto to continue eating before heading to the living room.
"Marvin, what's all this?" Crystal was stunned by the amount of stuff Marvin had brought with him. Was he moving in?
The coffee table was covered with gift boxes, and there were even more on the floor.
Marvin stood across from Crystal with a warm smile, bowing slightly in gratitude. "Mrs. Riley, I came by today specifically to thank you for saving my father."
