Chapter 1013
Maisie asked them immediately, “What’s wrong?”
“Uh… Ms. Vanderbilt, it turns out Hector is your cousin?”
Although they had long thought that the two of them might be related in some way, he turned out to be her
younger cousin.
They did not know much about that because Hector had not come clean with them either when it came to his
relationship with Maisie.
Several female employees leaned forward all of a sudden. “Ms. Vanderbilt, do you have any other younger
cousins?”
“Their buddies would do too.” .
Maisie was rendered speechless.
‘It seems that I really need to start hiring some young men for the company’s sake. Otherwise, these ladies will only

At Stoslo’s Ambergate Street….
Ryleigh walked into a circular plaza, looked at the sculptures and doves in the plaza, and picked up a camera to take
pictures.
A blonde girl walked up to her and tugged at the hem of her clothes. When Ryleigh lowered her head, the young girl
handed her the rose bouquet in her hand. She was astonished, and the girl pointed in the direction behind her.
Ryleigh looked back and looked slightly surprised. Louis was standing among the passing tourists, and the two
exchanged gazes through the crowd.
Ryleigh could not accept that Joe had died because of her, so she had gone abroad to escape from all the
emotions, and Louis gave her the time she needed badly.
They had not seen each other for 45 days, a full one and a half months. Seeing that Louis had come after her all
the way from Zlokova, Ryleigh pursed her lips and walked toward him with the roses in her arms.
It was not until she stopped right in front of him that she knew that it was really him and not just her imagination.
She wept and smiled at the same time. “W-Why have you come?”
Louis stroked the top of her messy hair. “I haven’t seen you for more than a month, and you seem to have lost
weight.”
She whimpered, “I’m not used to eating foreign food, and their potatoes taste worse than what we have in
Zlokova.”
Seeing her crying and complaining to him, Louis could not help but laugh out loud. “So you just allow yourself to go
hungry?”
“I didn’t.” Ryleigh wiped away her tears, but the more she wiped, the more tears gushed down from her eyes. In
the end, she threw herself into his arms hysterically.
Louis hugged her and stroked her back with a helpless expression, “I’ve been really worried that you would be
abducted and sold to human traffickers, that you wouldn’t be able to eat or sleep well for more than a month.”
He paused for a split second, rested his chin on the top of her head, and hugged her tightly. “I was also worried that
you wouldn’t return.
She froze in his arms and then looked up at him. “Where would you want me to go if I were not to return?”
Louis held her cheek in his palms. “Who knows? Nobody can be sure that you won’t leave me because you feel

Ryleigh was astounded.
‘To be honest, I was devastated in the days after Joe’s death. After all, he was a friend that I’ve known for more
than a decade. My feelings toward him, although it was not a romantic relationship. I will always remember the
kindness that he had shown me throughout our friendship.
Joe had died because of her, and that was something that Ryleigh had to get over.
That was why she did not care what Louis would think of her decision and proposed that she wanted to travel
abroad in order to seek her inner peace, and Louis had agreed without any questions asked.
After more than a month’s worth of peaceseeking, she had come to terms with a lot of things in life.
‘The life that Joe threw away so that I can live is something that I can never repay or make up for. The only thing
that I can do is to keep in touch with Joe’s mother so that she can recover from her grief.’
She had actually missed Louis a lot in the past month or so, but Louis had not taken the initiative to contact her.
Thus, she had been under the impression she had let him down and did not dare to contact him.
I’m actually a coward who doesn’t have the guts to face anything.’
Ryleigh leaned her forehead against his chest and lowered her head. “No, I actually missed you very much too.”
A faint smile appeared on the corners of Louis’ lips when he heard her confession, and he lifted her head. “Oh,
really? Then how badly did you miss me?”
