After Karl had sent Joyce away.

Karl returned to his office.

When he looked back upon what happened today, he felt like he was dreaming.

For four years, the heavy stone he had been carrying in his heart finally fell to the ground at this moment.

But he did not feel at ease at all, because, as he knew, a stronger opponent had appeared.

Otis, the second most powerful man in the military, was much more difficult to deal with than Ricky.

Back then, even if it was but a mere Ricky, his carelessness almost cost him his life. Today's Otis would be more than that. But, he was no longer the Karl of that year either, and now, he had tremendous power in his hand.

That said, his long-cherished wish for four years had finally come real and he felt so relieved.

As long as Joyce was safe, he would have no regrets.

He felt relieved, and he thought of Juanita, who had been his silent support for four years, and he picked up his cell phone and dialed her number.

Usually they didn't see each other much, and after the accident four years ago, Juanita became quite shy instead. She had been deliberately avoiding him. If it wasn't for the continuous efforts of the two families to create opportunities for them to meet, he was afraid they might have already lost contact.

He seldom took the lead in such a matter, and he was usually very busy at work, so he seldom called her.

A few moments later, the call was answered.

Juanita's sweet and delicate voice came, "Well, Karl, are you looking for me? Is there something wrong?"

“I want to see you tonight, Cloud Sea Restaurant, six o'clock. How's that?" He paused for a moment, "We can talk about it ... about getting married.”

Apparently, the person on the phone, froze for a moment.

“Your mother is pushing you again? It's okay. I'll talk to her, and I don't want to get married yet."

"No. My mom didn't say anything, and I wanted to call you myself." Karl said softly.
