"No problem," Charlotte replied. "Remember to tell me if there is a city with great scenery. I'll go visit you guys in the future."

"Of course."

Both of them were silent, then Rick said softly, "I'll hang up first."

"All right."

Silence descended until Rick finally ended the call. He put down his phone and lit a cigarette. It pained Kendall to see him like this. "You care about her so much. Why don't you tell her that you want to take her with you, too? I'm sure she'd agree."

"There's no need. I know she will still believe in Shane, just like you believe in me."

Kendall pouted and said, "I, too, want a companion. Besides, isn't it dangerous to be with Shane after what he's done? I heard that at least 30 people were admitted to the ICU. The hospital was operating beyond its capacity and had to send them to different hospitals. Many members of the Fuller Family have returned from abroad because of this."

Shane just wanted to take lives.

"They won't die. They will be in a vegetative state at most." Rick said with a serious look, "That's why Shane has become so terrifying. He has planned every step to the last detail - even the damages sustained by the other party."

"So." Kendall hugged herself tightly. "Granted that I said I'll love you no matter what, if you did something like this, I would still be afraid. This is too inhumane."

"Don't worry about them and sleep well."

Kendall nodded and slipped under the covers. "I'll always listen to our handsome Rick."

Rick smiled and kissed between her brows. "Good night, Princess Kendall."

Kendall fell into a contented sleep. Rick looked at her face and thought that sometimes, he didn't know if he should thank Kendall or Charlotte. Both of them were indispensable and brought color to his life. Maybe he should thank himself. He didn't choose to give up on Kendall at the most critical moment. In short, everything was just right and he must cherish it.

The news about Rick leaving soon reached Avery. And he didn't hear it from Rick, but rather, Peter told him.
