Jimmy saw Hector stand still at the door for a long time. He couldn’t figure out what Hector was thinking, so he stayed by the latter’s side and kept him company.

Suddenly, the door opened, and Bonnie came out of the room.

Hector looked past Bonnie and onto Yvette, who was eating. His eyes narrowed slightly. With just one glance, he recognized Yvette. Even with her head down, Yvette’s features from her childhood years were still vaguely visible.

Bonnie was startled by the sudden appearance of a strange man. Politely, she asked. “Hello, sir. Can I help you with something?”

Bonnie’s words caught everyone’s attention, including Jeremiah’s and Andrew’s, who were chatting with their backs toward

the door.

Jeremiah and Andrew turned to look at the door. Jeremiah even gave Hector a blank yet piercing and cold look.

Instantly, Hector’s body tensed up. He sensed that Jeremiah was dangerous.

Similarly, Andrew frowned. After all, no one would be happy to be interrupted during a meal. “This guy looks decent, but what is he up to?’ he thought.

Andrew wondered if news got out earlier at the police station, so people were trying to approach Jeremiah now that they knew his identity. With that thought. Andrew’s expression also seemed grim

On the other hand, Hector was slightly confused. He didn’t understand how he had offended the two men without saying a word.

Meanwhile, none of them noticed the brief moment of shock in Yvette’s eyes when she looked up.

“Yvette, it’s me, Hector,” said Hector.

Jeremiah didn’t expect the man at the door to know Yvette, not to mention how Hector seemed like a well-acquainted elder. Thus, Jeremiah withdrew the coldness he exuded.

“Sir, you know Yve? Come on in, then.” Bonnie invited Hector politely.

However, Hector didn’t move. Instead, like a friendly old neighbor, he thanked Bonnie kindly.

“Let’s talk outside, Yvette said coldly,

Hector wasn’t surprised and showed no displeasure at Yvette’s attitude. Instead, he looked at her affectionately and nodded, saying, “Okay, I’ll wait for you outside. No rush. Take your time to finish eating.”
