“It’s true that you could work hard to fall in love with someone again. Cheer up,” Ste said, her voice choking.


    “Mm,” He hugged her tightly. He didn’t want to let go, wishing that time would stop at that instant.


    He knew that once he let go this time, it would be forever.


    However,Ste didn’t belong to him anymore. He had to let her go.


    Frederick took a deep breath and finally let go of her. When he looked into her red eyes, he saw himself in her eyes.


    He felt that even if he had nothing in the end, it was still all worth it, “Take care of yourself.”


    Ste nodded. “You too, take care.”


    She pushed the door open and got out of the car. In the end, she did not tell him about the superbug.


    It would take at least an hour for Jasper to arrive at her university from the manor.


    She then sent a message to Bemy. “I’m in the private room of the restaurant where we ate thest time,104,near the school. Do you still remember?”


    Bemy saw the text message that was sent by Ste. He frowned and sped up.


    He certainly didn’t know it, hence, he had to search for it one by one.


    He searched through each restaurant oncehe was near the university. When he arrived at the fifth one, the owner of the restaurant, Dahlia, saw him and smiled. “Ste has been waiting for you for a long time. I’ll start preparing the dishes now. Come on in.”


    “Oh, okay.” Bemy let out a sigh of relief after having located Ste sessfully. He then followed Dahlia to the backyard.


    There was a tank in the yard, filled with different kinds of fresh seafood.


    “Has Ste already ordered the dishes?” Bemy asked tentatively.


    “Yes, fish and chips. Your favorite, right? I’m almost with the other dishes too. Buffalo wings, pork ribs, and mushroom soup.I’m making some of my signature dishes for you two,” Dahlia said with a smile.


    Bemy smiled politely and said, “Then I’ll definitely eat as much as I can.”


    “Please make yourself at home,” Dahlia said enthusiastically.


    “Thank you. It is no wonder that Ste is always thinking about the food here. It turns out there is such a good boss. Please do serve the dishes whenever they’re ready. I will go to Ste first,” Bemy said warmly.


    “Go on in. She has been waiting for you for a while now.”


    …


    Ste was ying Greedy Snake in the private room.When she saw himing, she put down her cell phone and looked at him.


    She didn’t say anything, but her eyes seemed to speak for themselves.


    Even Bemy could not bear to me her.


    He sat across her and said, “Don’t do this in the future, alright?Don’t you know how worried I will be if I don’t see you when I go over to your ce?


    Ste said softly, “You’ve been so busy recently and you have a lot on your te.I didn’t want to trouble you.”


    “You are my priority, Ste,” Bemy held her hand tightly.


    Ste was very familiar with this sentence. He had said those words before.


    Although she did not express her love for this sentence, her heart was always moved whenever she heard it.


    “I won’t do it again next time. I will discuss it with you first.You coulddiscuss anything that is bothering you with me too. A married couple needs tomunicate with each other,” Ste said.


    Her voice was like a drizzle in spring, mixed with petrichor, making one feel rxed. She was like a calm and soft beauty, makingBemy unable to resist her.


    The corners of Bemy’s mouth were curled up and he changed the subject, “I heard that you ordered my favorite fish and chips.”


    “I was going to cook for you personally after going back today,” Ste exined. “I even bought a particrly fresh codfish.”


    “I’m already hungry just listening to it. I’ll definitely go over to your ce tomorrow.”


    “Has Quinn left for F Country?” Ste asked.


    “Yes.”Bemynarrowed his eyes. He would be serious whenever it was about work. “If B Country does not contact me by tomorrow, I’m going to go over the day after tomorrow. I’m a little worried about them.”


    “In fact, ording to the normal procedures, B Country should’ve contacted you by today. Let’s give it another day. It would be best if they contact you first. If we were to take the initiative to contact them, they would have the advantage then,” Ste said.


    Dahlia opened the door and came in, holding a te of fish and chips in her hand. She said, “Try this first. I used my signature batter this time around. I’ll bring the other dishes shortly.”


    Ste smiled and said, “Thank you.”


    “You don’t have to be so polite with me. I’m just really happy to see you again, silly girl,” Dahlia said happily and turned to leave.


    Bemysighedas he stared at Dahlia who had walked away,“Good thingshe’s a woman,else I’d be jealous.”Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Ste smiled and held Bemy’s hand instead. She said seriously, “Let’s get out of here once we’ve dealt with Christian and defeat Quinn. Let’s go to an ind or travel around the world.”


    “It’s not enough to get Quinn down. I still have to ounts to settle with him,” Bemy said solemnly.


    Puzzled, Ste asked, “Is it about your secret that Mrs. Zane had mentioned thest time?”


    Bemynodded and said, “Do you still remember what happened to me when Iwas on the exploding ship back then?”


    How could Ste forget? That explosion had blown her soul away. “Are you saying that it was Quinn who did it?”


    “I think so,” Bemy’s eyes were deep and heavy.


    Christian was the one who caused the explosion, while Quinn had… assassinated Jasper.


    He must avenge his brother’s death, but he couldn’t tell Ste about it. Hence, he chose to lie.


    Ste lowered her head in disappointment. Christian would be dead by tomorrow, but what about Quinn?


    Bemy noticed that Ste was sad and he put his other hand on her wrist. He said in a deep voice, “It won’t take too long. I have a lot of evidence on hand. There will be a good showe New Year. Within half a year, Quinn will be gone.”


    Ste tilted her head and leaned on his arm, “Half a yearter, our child will be born. I really hope that everything will be settled by then. We could then take our children to live a carefree life. We still have at least 50 years to live. If you think about it that way, we’ll have more happiness than sadness,and there is still hope.”


    Bemylowered his head and kissed her on the forehead. “Yes, more happiness than sadness.”


    When Dahlia came in, she happened to see Bemy kissing Ste’s forehead. She said with a smile, “You two are so close. Are you married?”


    Bemyput his hand on Ste’s belly and said, “She’s pregnant with our second child.”


    “That’s great. I hope that you two could continue to be this happy forever,” Dahlia said sweetly, putting down the rest of the dishes.


    It turned out that her best dish was the pickles that she had made herself. It was very appetizing.


    Ste served the food to Bemygently.


    At this moment, his cell phone rang. Bemy took a look at the screen and realized that it was Samuel calling. Annoyed, he gritted his teeth and declined the call.


    Ste noticed his strange behavior and she asked worriedly, “What’s wrong?”
