Before this incident happened, Noah rarely spoke.

He was always the type to keep his emotions in check, and no one ever knew exactly what he was up to or what he was thinking, not even Kenneth.

So, Kenneth didn't often ask about Noah's private matters.

Noah stroked his chin thoughtfully, 'Am I here to find someone? Who am I looking for?"

Didn't I ever have a girl I liked before? Noah asked again.

Kermeth furrowed his brows even deeper.

"Has Noah lost his mind? he thought.

"How should I know?" Kenneth replied.

"Weren't we always together back then?" Noah said.

Kenneth was caught off guard by Noah's seemingly random question. "Do I look like I have nothing to do?"

We? Always together? Why doesn't he just say we slept in the same bed" Kenneth thought to himself, a little frustrated,

Kenneth let out a faint sigh. He could hardly remember what Noah was like back then.

In the past, Noah never had women around him. He always maintained a cold demeanor, which was nothing like the man sitting on the floor now, playing with Legos.

"We were too busy building our own forces back then, Kenneth said. Aside from work, they rarely discussed anything else.

Noah didn't know that Kenneth had returned to Dellanex to find someone,

With that thought, Kenneth looked back at Ophelia in the kitchen, his heart involuntarily tightening.

"Building forces?" Noah asked.

"Yes, the West family was trying to establish influence in Yoskela at the time, and you were busy helping your family with that," Kenneth explained.

Noah thought back carefully, but his mind was blank. He couldn't remember anything.
