Frey quickened her pace but suddenly stumbled and fell, her knees hitting the ground painfully. Tears welled up in her eyes from the shock of the impact.

She grasped the wall beside her, trying to steady herself, when a pair of polished men's leather shoes came into view. Looking up, she saw Nathaniel's cold and stern face staring down at her.

Frey frowned. It was unusual for Nathaniel to be in such a rundown alley, especially so far from the central office building of Technologent Group.

Nathaniel, dressed in a sleek black suit and standing rigidly, seemed almost out of place amid the disheveled surroundings. His serious demeanor made Frey question if this was the same man who had called her, begging her not to leave the night before.

Nathaniel tilted his chin slightly, sizing up the disheveled woman before him.

His fingers, hidden in his trouser pockets, clenched into fists. Beside him, Abigail's arm was linked lovingly with his. Abigail, dressed in a Persian-style sweater dress and a beige windbreaker, had her hair styled in an elegant bun with diamond hairpins.
