While some lose track of time in the mountains, others bear the burden for them.

Time rewound to the night of the class reunion. Shawn and his people waited for Alexei most of the night. However, all that awaited them were empty fallen leaves, swept by the mountain.

wind.

Shawn thought, ‘Fine. I’m used to it now!’

He smiled resignedly.

Alexei didn’t come out for a day, two days, or even three. Calls were hung up, or occasionally connected only to quickly fall silent.

Shawn took a deep breath, knowing he had to handle it himself.

Lucas, having just received a “thorough reception” was dragged out again. His face was pale.

He smiled. “Mr. Wright, you’re lucky. Cripple one of his hands and send him back.”

They couldn’t kill him yet. Alexei and Natasha had more in store for him later.

Lucas looked at his limp right hand and couldn’t believe Shawn dared to say this was still good luck.

He had been in living hell these past few days.

However, fear outweighed any lingering affection.

From a young age, he was accustomed to getting everything he wanted. Even after Natasha broke up with him, he was confident she would eventually return.

However, everything spiraled out of control from the day his marriage proposal failed.

Unwilling to accept it, Lucas sought to win her back, but only plunged himself into an
