"After leaving North City, you'll no longer be Kimberly Shell. If... You're okay with that, then go ahead." Quill smiled and added, "Of course, no matter what, I'll respect your decisions." Kimberly took the passport and a moment later, she put it away.

"I'm going to leave, so it would be better to have a new identity. I'll be keeping the passport and the boarding pass. Thank you, Secretary Sharpio. Thank you... Quill." "Secretary Sharpio will go with you and she'll help you arrange everything. You should settle down and rest when you get there. After I handle some work, I'll meet you there." Kimberly stared at Quill in surprise. "You're coming too?"

"Well, it's nearly time. You still need to go through the security check, so go and queue with Secretary Sharpio."

Juliette nodded and held Kimberly's handbag for her. "Let's go, Miss Hanover."

Miss Hanover... Immediately, Juliette's address made Kimberly snap back to her senses.

After that, she will no longer be Kimberly Shell. She was a member of the Hanover family... She was Minerva Hanover.

After getting through the security check, Kimberly turned over her shoulder to stare at Quill. He stood in the light and there was a gentle smile on his lips.

Goodbye, North City.

Quill too... The brother she just got to know.

Kimberly bid farewell to everyone in North City quietly.

Last but not least, she whispered her farewell to Maddox.

"I hope that we'll never meet again," she thought.

Henceforth, she was Minerva Hanover. Kimberly Shell was but a ghost in the past.

She was going to start a new life.

Five years later.
