Chapter 2106

Stella lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, when she heard the commotion outside. The clock blinked 3:00 AM.

Suddenly, Dave burst into her room, yanking her out of bed. "The Moore family has found us! We can't stay any longer. We need to get to the airport now. By 8 AM, we'll be on a flight, and we won't be setting foot in North America for at least six months."

"Beck, 7 AM, JFK Airport. Can we meet one last time?"

She hesitated on the last words, feeling a bit vulnerable, but she sent it anyway.

After freshening up, he decided to go for a swim, indulging in the solitude of the early morning. Half an hour later, as he toweled off, a housekeeper approached.
