It was as if he had beca completely different person.
Something must be up.

"What else could makehappy? You know the usual," Alaric said nonchalantly.
"About a woman?" Ethan guessed right away. He knew Alaric's tastes better than Alaric's own mother.
Money might not always bring joy to Ethan, but a woman who caught his eye was a different story.
