"I don't think our homeland necessarily suits you. You've only been back a short while and you've already fallen ill several times. Perhaps you'd fare better in a foreign environment."

"No... I came back to our country just for you, Zack. Please don't be like this."

"Let's not talk about this now. Since your injuries are not severe, I'll head back first."

Susanna was still holding onto him, unwilling to let him go.

As she lifted her gaze, it met Zachary's. A shiver ran through her body and involuntarily, her hand released its grip.

Zachary turned and left the ward.

He then drove back to the company and headed straight for Lenora's office.

The office was empty, with the computer also switched off.

He casually flagged down an employee from MQ, asking, "Where's Ms. Wilkin?"

"I'm not sure, but it seems as though Ms. Wilkin didn't come to work today. She might have taken the day

off.

"All right; I understand," he said.

He then immediately drove home.

"Welcome home, Mr. Fuller," said the housekeeper.

"Where's Mrs. Fuller?" Zachary asked casually as he began to ascend the stairs.

""Mrs. Fuller went on a business trip.

Zachary's steps halted after he heard that. "A business trip?"

"Yes; she went on a business trip with Milly."

Zachary fell silent, slowly making his way to the couch. He sat down, leaning against the backrest, and rubbed his brow with his hand.

He was well aware that Lenora's itinerary for the day had nothing to do with a business trip. As such, he figured she must have brought it forward on purpose. Zachary pulled out his phone and sent a message to Lenora on WhatsApp: Are you on a business trip? When will you be back?

He figured it was highly likely that Lenora wouldn't respond to his message.

Unlock succeeded

As expected, there was no response even after a long while.
