Chapter 713


    Standing in the vi, Adam had never found the ce he used to see as a harbor was so cold


    before.


    He assumedposure until Rose and Caesar left. He heard himself say, "I''m fine. Don''t worry."


    "The rescue team will keep working. No news is the best news. Tracey must be alive," they


    comforted him.


    "Mm. I''ll get some sleep first. Call me if you find anything."


    "Okay. See you." The two of them were exhausted too. None of them had had a good rest since the


    ident.


    Rose was so tired that she could sleep on her feet.


    In the vi, Jane quietly looked at Adam with red eyes.


    "Sir, Miss will be fine. I''ll go prepare you some food." Jane quickly walked to the kitchen before she


    cried out. She missed Tracey too.


    The house was warm but Adam shuddered as he carried heavy steps upstairs.


    Everything in this house was a reminder of Tracey.


    The walk to their room drained himpletely. He looked at the crinkled mattress and the scattered


    papers on the table.


    Adam approached the table and grab a piece of paper. Heart-wrenching sorrow overwhelmed him


    when he saw what was on it.


    He couldn''t quell his tears anymore and cried like a lost boy.


    It was Tracey''s designs of rings.


    He remembered her delighted voice saying, "I have a surprise for you, Adam."


    "Do I have the honor to know it now?"


    "If I tell you now, it won''t be a surprise."


    "Fine. Then I''lle back early."


    "I''ll pick you up from the airport." Those designs must be her surprise.


    One of the designs got an A&T on it, the initials of their names.


    His tears fell on the paper and seeped in soon. He could visualize her dedicated face when she''d


    drawn those designs.


    "Little bunny... Where are you..." Adam pressed the paper against his chest as if he could get closer


    to her in this way.


    Adam fished out his phone and listened to all the voice messages she''d sent him.


    "Adam, don''t skip your meal. Take your time. I''ll wait for you at home."


    "Adam, it''s getting warm now. I want to wear dresses. You can''t say no this time."


    "Adam, I just signed with a bigpany. I am one step closer to you."


    "Adam, I''ve taken my medicine and meals on time. You''ll see a little fat bunny when youe


    back."


    "Adam..."


    Every word she''d said was so valuable to him now.


    Adam wished he had put away his work and called her that day.


    Jane knocked on the door and said, "Sir, I made noodles for you. Do you want to have some before


    sleeping?"


    "I''m not hungry," Adam croaked. He looked extremely lonely in the spacious room.


    Jane said with a breaking voice, "Miss wouldn''t like to see you like this."


    Adam squeezed his eyes shut and took a deep breath, convincing himself that Tracey would


    definitelye back to him.


    "Come in." Adam forced himself to hold on. He couldn''t break down.


    After eating, he went to the bathroom. Looking himself in the mirror, he found stubbles had covered


    his chin.


    Tracey used to touch his stubble in the morning and giggle when he grabbed her hand down.


    He shaved and made himself clean again. She would be sad to see him haggard.


    Adam kept ying her voice messages until he fell asleep. But he stirred soon.


    He slid his hand across the sheet but it was cool to the touch.


    Anxiety and sadness were relentless and they fought back violently every time he tried to quench


    them.


    He couldn''t stop thinking about her.


    He fell into a reverie that Tracey was still with himughing happily, his eyes wide open and empty.


    "Sir, there are guests. Do you want to meet them?" Jane''s voice drew him back.


    "Who?" Adam asked.


    "Carmen and Leo. They said they have something important to tell you."


    Those two names ignited his rage on the spot. If it weren''t for Renee, Tracey wouldn''t have fallen


    into the water. How dare theye to see him?

    He was to turn them down t but hesitated. "Lead them to the living room. I''lle down


    soon."


    "Yes."


    Adam changed into a cozy sweater Tracey had bought him and came down.


    Carmen and Leo decided to visit Adam after careful consideration. First, they feared Adam''s


    revenge. Second, they were aware that they couldn''t rescue Renee with their own forces.


    Moreover, they thought Tracey might have called Adam too and they could get more clues joining


    the information together.


    Carmen was surprised when Jane answered the door. She was the one who had fired Jane back


    then.
