The yacht set sail. Zach and I returned to the deck. Inside, Evan was surrounded by admirers, effortlessly handling the flattery, occasionally offering a faint smile, seemingly unfazed by Maria’s presence. Huang Kaihao was creating opportunities for his granddaughter. Olivia Huang was bold, constantly trying to chat with Evan, practically writing “I’m interested in you” on her face.

Exhaling wearily, I exited WhatsApp, noticing numerous text and voice messages. Initially calm, asking my whereabouts, then turning frantic and enraged, the latest voice message was from five minutes ago. His voice was low, hoarse, broken.
