She then turned around and left.

After her eyes lingered on the cake for a moment, Rachel looked around the cafe to find out who could have sent it to her.

Unfortunately, she didn’t see whoever it was.

Nonetheless, she thought there was no need to dwell on it.

It wasn’t unusual that men would sometimes send her coffee or pastries whenever she sat alone to deal with business or mull over things.

After all, she was pretty.

She figured it might have been just like any other time that someone sent her something to her table to get her attention.

However, it didn’t mean Rachel had to touch the cake.

She simply took a sip of her coffee and tapped her phone screen with her fingertips.

A few seconds later, she pressed the send button, stood up, and walked out of the cafe.

As she got in the car, her phone vibrated.

When she unlocked the screen, a message from Carson popped up-the address of the funeral home.

Above the address was the message Rachel sent him before she left the cafe.

In the chat bubble, she said, “I’ll go.”

At the break of dawn the next day, an extraordinary view unraveled outside the window.

It snowed the entire night and covered the whole world in white, leaving only the contours of the vicinity.

Rachel went downstairs with Joey in her arms and headed straight to the yard where Quintin had been waiting for a while.

When he saw them, he opened the rear door and watched Rachel carefully put the little boy in the back seat.

Standing on the side of the car, Quintin looked down through the car window and found that Joey was asleep.

His eyes turned serious.

“Are you sure about this? Why don’t you come back with us? There’s no need to worry about things in Apilaria.”

Rachel gently stroked the hair off the boy’s forehead.

“He’ll probably wake up on the plane.

Make sure to keep an eye on him after he gets off.”

“But…”

“I know you’re concerned that trouble will arise in Apliaria, but

Bennet Group won’t get involved.

Don’t worry,” Rachel expressed plainly.

However, Quintin couldn’t make sense of what she was thinking and couldn’t help but frown.

“You didn’t leave that year because of

Bennet Group, not to mention that Victor didn’t let you go.

But now,

Bennet Group is stable and the cooperation with the Jimenez family is going well and steadily.

There won’t be any problem even if you’re not here.

Besides, Victor is dead.

What’s keeping you from Leaving this place? Didn’t you say Wallace wasn’t the one who set you up six years ago? If it wasn’t him, then that person must have something to do with the Red Hackers.

Don’t you think it’ll be easier if you go back and investigate the problem there?”

Rachel pursed her lips and said nothing as she stared at Quintin.
