"Julia."

"I didn't know you were in Khebury, and what are you doing here?" Michal said with concern, "Your father is worried sick. I met him in the city council some time ago and he even mentioned you to me. He looked just so upset."

"I ... I have a marketing job in a large group here."

Juanita answered with her head down.

When she first fell out with her family in order to escape her marriage, she ran to Khebury alone. She even changed her name just to get rid of their shackles.

Even if she earned a meager salary, at least she was living for herself.

However, who would have thought that the person she didn't want to marry would be Karl.

The one person she was now so preoccupied with was also Karl.

She had done so much for nothing. What a fate!

"Julia, I hope you don't mind me nagging. Listen to my advice."

"Your father is running for Congress in two years. You're the only daughter in your family, and if you don't help him, who will?" Michal handed her a piece of cheesecake and said, "Wouldn't it be better for you to go back to the Capital and work in the City Council too?"

"I ..." Juanita was speechless. She didn't even know her dad was running for congress.

She hadn't been home for a long time.

Since she ran away from home, it was not convenient for her father to come out and find her, let alone any announcement about her.

She also changed her name because she was concerned about her father's reputation.

Karl ate his breakfast quietly. It was Sunday, and he was having a day off, and he didn't have to go to the police station.

In fact, it made no difference whether he stayed at home or not.

It had been eight days, and they could not find Joyce.

It was as if all his energy was drained from his body, leaving only a shell on it.

He missed Joyce so much that he was hallucinating last night before he did that kind of thing to Juanita ...

He closed his eyes tightly and took a deep breath.

It was impossible to say that there were no regrets.

He regretted it so much. Not to mention that it was Juanita last night, even if it really was Joyce, how could he cross the line and do such a thing to her? He understood her and respected her. That's enough. He never wanted to get her.

Now that he had made an irreversible mistake on impulse, his mind was now a mess.

"Bang!"

Michal suddenly slapped on the table heavily, and Karl and Juanita, who were both having breakfast, looked up with a start.

"Karl, are you deaf? Not even a word."

"From the time I walked in the door until now, you've barely said any words! You don't have anything to explain?" Michal was a little angry. No matter what, Julia was the only daughter of a mayor, and they were sleeping together last night, and now did he still want to pretend that nothing had happened? It was such a shame!

"No. I'm done eating."

Karl propped himself up on the table and stood up, "I remember that I still have something to do in the police department."

"I'll have to leave now."

He did not have to go to the police station today. The departments had also given up the search for Joyce. He had done everything he could, and they had no idea what else could be done. Right now, he just wanted to find a place and stay quietly.

There was no way for him to come out of his grief, and no way for him to communicate with them like a normal person.
