    "I''m leaving tomorrow," Chris announced, "so after tonight, I have to say goodbye to everyone for the


    time being. I have been out for too long and need to go back to Alvonia."


    Luther nodded slightly. "Thank you for your support during this time. If you ever need help in the future,


    don''t hesitate to ask."


    Juanita''s voice choked with emotion. "So tonight is actually a farewell dinner?"


    Karl gently patted Juanita. "Why call it a farewell dinner? That sounds so negative. The Capital is not


    far from Khebury, so we can meet up anytime."


    "It''s not the same. When we''re all together, we can easily make ns to eat together, but when we''re


    apart and busy with our own lives, we gradually grow apart. Otherwise, we could all go to Khebury


    together." Juanita wiped away tears and held back her emotions. "You can still go back to being a


    detective. After all, we all used to be in Khebury."


    Joyceforted her. "Juanita, I wille back to see you often. Don''t forget that my parents are in the


    Capital. Karl is now the dean of the House of Inspection. How can you let him go back to being a


    detective?"


    "What''s wrong with that? I don''t want to be the leader of this association either. Besides, back then he


    returned to the Capital and joined the Special Investigation Department because of you..." Juanita


    stopped halfway through her sentence.


    Luther looked away ufortably. Indeed, Karl had returned to the Capital alone to search for clues


    because of his feelings for Joyce. Four years had passed in a sh. Now that the case was finally


    solved, they had to part ways.


    Karl stiffened. He looked at Joyce, and his gaze betrayed some reluctance. "Do you really have to go?"


    He thought Joyce would stay in the Capital, after all, the Heath family and their military power had deep


    roots here. He nced at Luther again, and it seemed that Joyce had already chosen Luther and


    decided to return to Khebury.


    Joyce nodded.


    Karl pursed his lips and smiled. "I respect your decision."


    Joyce looked at Juanita. "Juanita, the Gregory family and the Sanchez family are both in the Capital.


    Although you both left for Khebury, the Capital is still your home. Now everything is back in its ce.


    You are married and about to have a child. You have your own life now. All good things muste to


    an end. I''m happy for you all today, and I''m not really keen on getting too involved in your lives,


    especially with the danger thates with it. Both you and Karl have brushed with death before, all


    because of me. Fortunately, everything is over now. I don''t want to involve you in any more trouble.


    Juanita, we will always be good friends. That won''t change."


    Juanita finally couldn''t hold back her tears.


    The atmosphere of parting infected Nina, who had been holding back her tears for days. She thought of


    Chris leaving tomorrow and finally let her tears fall.


    Chris saw this and pulled her close. "They''re saying goodbye, why are you crying?"


    "Sorry," Nina quickly wiped away her tears.


    Chris nced at Nina. He was leaving, yet she didn''t seem too upset. He didn''t know if she was hiding


    it too well or if she really wasn''t affected. Were her tears just for him? This woman''s appearance, with


    tears in her eyes, really made him feel sorry for her.


    After the sadness passed, the atmosphere gradually became more rxed, and there was more


    At the dinner table, Nina almost served Chris every dish, peeled shrimp and crab legs, and put them


    neatly in his te. Her careful and considerate manner was gentle and thoughtful.


    Juanita was impressed. "Wow, Chris, you''re really lucky. She treats you like a king, serving you with


    care and attention. As a man, you''re really living the high life."


    Chris suddenly pushed his te toward Nina. "Why are you doing this? Eat your own food. Do you


    think I need a servant girl?"


    He didn''t need her to serve him food. He had hands and could do it himself. This little woman hadn''t


    even eaten properly the whole night, busy serving him food, peeling shrimp and crab legs. He watched


    her working hard, and he couldn''t bring himself to rebuke her in front of everyone.


    But Juanita couldn''t stand it and brought it up.


    He took the opportunity to get angry.


    Although she took care of him meticulously, it was too subservient.


    "I''m sorry." Nina bit her lip. Seeing him angry, she lowered her head and didn''t dare to speak.


    "Don''t be angry at her. She''s willingly doing this for you," Joyceughed. "She must love you very


    much. Chris, I heard your mother is from the royal family? Are there a lot of rules in your family? I don''t


    think she understands your situation. You need to exin it to her."


    Chris''s expression improved slightly upon hearing Joyce''s words. Yes, he had never exined it to


    Nina.


    He turned to her and scolded her softly, "Although Alvonia is a military government, it is also a


    democratic country. What do you take me for? Although my mother is from the royal family, I didn''t


    grow up with her. I don''t care about the rules of the royal family." He lifted Nina and brought her closer


    to him, forcing her to look at him. "We are equals, understand? You don''t need to treat me with such


    respect."


    "Oh, I understand." Nina blinked her watery eyes and looked at him. Chris sighed and let her go and


    then served her a bowl of soup. "Drink more. You haven''t eaten much tonight."


    "Okay." Nina bit her lip, feeling a hint of sweetness in her heart. In fact, she not only respected him but


    also looked up to him. Now, she felt like he was getting closer and closer to her. She couldn''t believe


    she could have this man, and she wanted to work harder to keep him.


    "Haha, I think Chris is actually not difficult to get along with." Juanita propped her chin and looked


    calmly at Luther.


    Luther''s eyes darkened. This Juanita had eaten her fill and was now trying to provoke him?


    Sure enough, Juanita spoke up, "If we''re talking about the hardest person to get along with, Mr.


    Warner, you definitely take the top spot."


    Juanita shook her head and then looked at Karl. "You''re second. One is an unpredictable Yama, and


    the other is a cold-faced Asura."


    Luther''s face fell.


    Karl had a ck line on his face.


    Joyce finally couldn''t hold back and burst outughing. She nodded in agreement. "That''s a good


    description."
