Mrs. Flores gaped at Samuel, unable to comprehend why he was so angry at the mention of the Lynch family.
In her memory, Father Samuel had always been kind and easygoing, and even though he used to be the Quinn family's heir, he treated everyone with kindness after becoming a priest.
He had always treated her and Yannie well despite knowing how harsh their upbringing had been.
This was why, out of all the priests at the church, Samuel was the only one she had remained in touch with through these years.
However, this usually gentle and easygoing man had suddenly turned fierce and hostile after hearing about her and Yannie's involvement with Joshua and Luna.
"Don't ask why!" Samuel furrowed his brows and gazed intently at her. "If you still think of me as a friend, you'd better take my advice and stay away from the Lynch and Landry families!"
Then, he closed his eyes and let out an exhale. "This is the only piece of advice I have for you and Yannie before I leave Merchant City. Of course, there's someone else-someone who goes by Howard..."
Mrs. Flores raised her brows questioningly. "Howard?"
"That's right." Samuel sighed and explained, "You don't have to know who this person is, but please pass on my message to Yannie. She'll understand what I'm trying to say."
Mrs. Flores furrowed her brows in confusion. Why was Samuel telling her and Yannie to stay away from the Lynch and Landry families?
Who was this Howard that he was talking about?
She wanted to know the answers to these questions, but...
She stared at Samuel's solemn face and decided against it.
She knew there was no point in asking any further questions since Samuel would not answer them anyway.
According to Samuel’s personality, he would not answer anything that he did not feel like talking about, much less a question coming from someone as lowly as her.
Therefore, she had no choice but to sigh and reply, "Alright."
