After hesitating for a few moments, Miles gathered his thoughts and his report. "The company

had plans to invest in multiple theme parks across Nusridge this year. During the early planning phase, we didn't anticipate that some Hoffman family members were already negotiating for those parcels of land- Zachary waved him off, disinterested. "Is that all? If there's nothing more, you can head back to work."

Miles was momentarily speechless, fumbling with his words. "Uh, yes... All right, I'll be on my way." Clutching his folder, he exited the room hastily.

Zachary stepped toward the window, retrieving his phone as he dialed Madison's number.

Once he had finished issuing his instructions, he powered off his phone, tucking it neatly back in his pocket. He looked out at the skyline, his eyes carrying an unsettling intensity.

He simply couldn't fathom how, after everything, Lendra could still harbor any feelings for Connor.

Zachary lingered by the window for a few moments longer, then grabbed his coat and left the ward. He'd barely walked a few steps down the hallway when he heard a voice call out behind him. "Mr. Fuller?" Zachary turned. "Dr. Jennings."

"I reviewed your records. It looks like you're cleared for surgery. When do you want to schedule it?" Dexter Jennings asked.

Zachary thought for a moment, then replied, "I've changed my mind. I'll go with a more conservative treatment plan for now."

Originally, Zachary had planned on going through with the surgery, but he hadn't anticipated that Lenora and Connor would suddenly make their relationship official.

If he went under the knife and spent half a month recovering in the hospital, who knows what Lenora and Connor might have done in his absence?

Dexter's eyebrows rose, surprised. "All right, that's definitely an option. You're still quite young, so holding off on something as serious as a gastrectomy could certainly be wise."

When Zachary finally returned to Galaxy Bay, he found that Lenora had already left.

Not only had she left, but she'd also left him a note, which read: Did you really think you could trap me? Fool!

The note was accompanied by a drawing of a round, goofy egg with a bemused expression.

Zachary could just imagine her snug little grin as she sketched her mocking message. A faint smile started. to form on his lips, but as his thoughts returned to Lenora's hot spring plans with Connor, his mood darkened, and his face grew stern again. Lenora was cozily lounging in bed, perusing reviews of various photography courses online.

Fiona had finally responded to her message: Nora, I've looked over your recent work.

After giving her feedback, Fiona recommended: I think you should go for the Man and Nature' category. Your
