'Cormac?' Hearing this name, Rowena felt a mix of emotions, but she was definitely excited.

"Not just a common name; I am indeed the friend of the friend you mentioned," Rowena explained. "Really?" Stellan was still surprised even after getting confirmation.

"Yes, I am Cormac's ex-girlfriend," Rowena said.

"I see him living so poorly now, and when I met you both, neither of you mentioned each other. I thought you had a falling out," Rowena said pointedly.

"What do you mean? You've seen him?" Alaric was pleasantly surprised. "Cormac is still in Arizona? Where is he?"
