I sensed some regret in his statement. I paused for a moment and asked, "Do you like Raiya?" No one could be perfectly fair to everyone. But at the very least, we shouldn't let ourselves down.

He nodded, "She's kind, gentle, cute and sensible. She's very much like a younger version of you. She can be a little stubborn sometimes, yet indecisive at other times. If I were to choose who I would spend the rest of my life with, she is an ideal choice. At least I know I won't regret choosing her."

I was astonished. I didn't expect that he would say such a thing. I nodded slightly and stopped asking. If his choice at this moment was, in his opinion, the best decision he could make, that was good enough. Raiya and Valerie came downstairs. Valerie had given Raiya a piece of jewelry. It was not too expensive, but enough to show her sincerity. Coming from a middle-class family, Raiya more or less knew about jewelry. She seemed to be pleased at receiving such a gift.

After chatting for a while in the villa, dusk had fallen, so Freya took Oliver back home. Zachary said that he had a gathering that night and departed as well. Sawyer too left with Raiya.

I wanted to stay with Anne, but all of a sudden, I received a call from Shirley. I hadn't been in touch with her for so long that I almost forgot her voice.

I picked up the phone and hesitated. Then, I greeted, "Hey, Shirley!"
