"Lane, check if there's any surveillance footage. If we can find the guy, I'd love to show our company's appreciation. Without him, I'm sure things would have been much worse." As they were engrossed in their discussion, both failed to notice that Dorothy's thoughts seemed to drift away.

Atall, skinny man. Could it be him? Before she passed out, she thought she heard a familiar voice. It was just as gentle as it was years ago. She was sure it was just an illusion.

Everett was supposed to be getting married abroad, wasn't he? How could he be here, saving her? But Austin's words made her heart race. A strange intuition began to surge within her.

Dorothy asked, "Austin, any news from the investment firm today? Did anyone come to inspect it?" Austin was taken aback. "No, don't worry. We won't let them see what happened. It won't affect the project.” Dorothy's lips quivered. "Are you...sure?" "Absolutely! If someone from the investment firm came and | didn't know about it, | wouldn't be fit to be the project manager." Austin reassured her with a smile, which ended up being a grimace due to his injuries.

Both Lane and Austin thought she was concerned about the company's project. They comforted her, saying that even if the incident was seen by the investment firm, it wouldn't be an issue as long as it was resolved.

What they didn't know was that Dorothy simply wanted to know one thing.

Did Everett come? But she didn't ask. Rationality told her it was impossible. It was just a hallucination triggered by all the chaos.

At Dreamscape Hotel.

Everett had packed his bags and was discussing the details of a new project with Kevin.

On the other side of the video call, Kevin hesitated before finally asking, "Mr. Lopez, do you want to change your flight?" Everett paused for a second before he responded, "No need.” "Alright. Should | continue to monitor the hospital situation for you? The doctor did say she was severely injured.” "Kevin, it was a mere coincidence that | helped a colleague." His voice was calm and indifferent.

"| apologize, Mr. Lopez." Kevin knew he had stepped out of line and quickly apologized.

Everett took a deep breath, falling into silence before finally saying, "I've been tracking her whereabouts for four years. It's like I've had a knot in my heart that | couldn't untie. | was obsessed and rabidly seeking any news about her. Now, having seen her do well and achieve success in her career, | realize | was the only one who couldn't move on. It's time for me to do so.” He rarely spoke so much and rarely expressed his thoughts.

"| understand, Mr. Lopez," Kevin replied.

"Have a car pick me up. I'm heading to the airport.” "Alright." After ending the call, Everett packed up his laptop. Once he was sure he hadn't left anything behind, he headed out.

As he reached the hotel's front desk, someone called out to him from behind.

"Sirl" Everett turned around. It was the receptionist to whom he had given the candy. "Yes?" "The mom of the little girl you gave candy to left a business card for you.” She handed him the card.
