The next morning, Audrey woke up with a stuffy nose and a bad cold because of having been taken to a cold garage last night.

After packing, she was ready to check out.

When she opened the door, she saw that the door of the room on the opposite side was open.

A middle-aged cleaning lady was about to carry a clean sheet and a clean blanket to the room.

Audrey asked in surprise, "Where is the guest staying in that room?"

"He checked out this morning." the cleaning lady replied casually.

Audrey did not say a word.

Her heart sank lower and lower.

Bryson had really checked out.

It seemed that she really hurt him badly last night. As he didn't want to see her, he even checked out early.

Maybe that was for the best. Since Bryson did not want to see her again, they could go back to the time when they did not know each other.

However, she felt a tearing pain in her heart.

Could she really go back to the time when she did not know Bryson?

She pulled the suitcase next to her and went downstairs to meet Charity. They went to the railway station together.

...

When Audrey and Charity were back in Peace City, it was already afternoon.

They went straight back to the law firm with their luggage and filed all documents related to the Pine City case in the archives room. Freddy praised Audrey in front of everyone and promised to give her a bonus this month.

Pine City got its name from the pine nuts there, and Audrey had brought pine nuts from Pine City for her colleagues in the firm as souvenirs.

When she handed a bag of pine nuts to Liana, Liana smiled and took it. But after Audrey was away, Liana immediately threw the pine nuts into the bin.

Liana was furious.
