Chapter 760:

But just as they passed a security booth, a guard called out urgently.

“Ms. Marsh, you’re finally back.” His face was filled with worry.

Rachel paused and turned to him. “What happened?” she asked. The guard sighed and pointed toward a tall figure standing near the entrance. “It’s him.

She had gone to great lengths to avoid him ever since she returned, yet here he was—waiting.
