    Two dayster, at the airport exit in Fleuverton, Erin walked out from Exit 10 holding a duffel bag at 9


    pm. She looked ahead and quickly spotted Ken standing next to a ck sedan. Before she boarded the


    ne, Roman had called to say that Ken woulde to pick her up. Although Erin tried to decline,


    Roman insisted, so she didn’t refuse any further.


    “Ken!” Erin took the initiative to greet Ken, wearing a mask and sunsses. 1


    Upon hearing her voice, Ken recognized her. “Erin, if you hadn’t called me, I wouldn’t have recognized


    you at all.”


    Erin approached him apologetically. “I’m really sorry. Did you wait for a long time? I didn’t expect the


    flight would be dyed-*


    “It’s okay. I’ve been ying games in the car the whole time. Let’s go, Erin.”


    Erin nodded and got into the car. Ken closed the door for her and went over to the driver’s seat. Before


    long, the car left the airport.


    Inside the car, Ken expressed concern. “Hey Erin, is your mother ok now?”


    “She’s fine. She has been eating more these past two days.” Erin took off her mask and put it in her


    handbag.


    Ken informed her. “By the way, as per your instructions, your good friend Ms. Green has been staying


    in your hotel room these past two


    days.”


    Erin asked, “She said she woulde to pick me up. Why didn’t shee along?”


    Before Ken could answer, Erin’s phone rang. She took out her phone from her handbag and saw that it


    was a call from Holly.


    The moment she tapped on the answer button, Holly’sugh could be heard over the line. “Erin, have


    you arrived in Fleuverton?”


    “Yes, I just got in the car.”


    Holly said, “I know I promised that I woulde get you at the airport, but you must forgive me. Prince


    Charming came to Fleuverton on the same day as you. However, he arrived five hours ago, and we’re


    having coffee together now!”


    A hint of confusion appeared on Erin’s face. She naturally understood who Holly was referring to as


    Prince Charming. It could only be Simon. Strangely, in just two short days, Simon and Holly had


    be even more familiar with each other. What was even more peculiar was when Erin was still in


    her hometown, Holly mentioned that Simon took the initiative to call her and chat. However, no matter


    what they talked about, it would always circle back to Erin.


    At first, Holly couldn’t ept it. But when she thought about Simon’s condition and the purpose behind


    it, she became more understanding. Even if Simon was using her to gather information about Erin, it


    was better than himpletely ignoring her.


    As they gradually interacted, perhaps Simon might develop feelings for her. Holly was looking forward


    to that possibility quite a bit.


    “Then, you two enjoy your drinks. You don’t need to call me,” Erin said with a smile on her lips.


    At that moment, Holly’s phone was suddenly snatched away by Simon. He said, “Erin, both Holly and I


    are waiting for you in the hotel’s café. I brought two Arandrian lobsters. I’ll have the hotel chef prepare


    supper for us tonight.”


    “Hey, why are you so rude-” Holly snatched the phone back and said, “I have something to tell Erin. We


    can’t let you listen to our girl talk.”


    Erin had been silent all along, and Holly went to the restroom with her phone.


    As soon as she entered the restroom, she checked each stall to make sure no one was around. Then,


    she said to Erin, “Erin, let me tell you.” I learned from Simon that Chandler is also in Fleuverton now.


    He’s staying at the best hotel in Fleuverlon–the same hotel as na!”


    Erin’s heart constricted upon hearing that, but she pretended to remain calm. “So what if he’s here? It


    has nothing to do with me.”


    Holly was surprised. “Erin, are you really ok with things ying out like this? Chandler hasn’t even


    called you. Even if you two are really breaking up, shouldn’t you at least rify things? Don’t you want


    to ask him what his ns are? Chandler’s grandfather wants to see him. get married and have children


    as soon as possible. But why can’t that person be you?”


    “You’re too naive, Holly. With my current notorious reputation online, do you think I can still enter the


    Frost family? I don’t want to think. about these things anymore. I understand Chandler’s difficulties, and


    I’m sick of asking questions that have no answers. There’s no need to make things worse for each


    other. I’m already grateful that he didn’t say it to my face. At least he’s not that cruel to me.” Erin had to


    bury her feelings of reluctance and difort deep inside her heart.


    After spending two days in Southwrok County, she had contemted a lot in her roomte at night.


    Eventually, she came to a realization- Chandler and she were ultimately people from two different


    worlds. Since he’d given up on this rtionship for the sake of his grandfather. she shouldn’t be a


    stumbling block for him.


    Rather than forcing Chandler to bid her farewell in person, it was better lo silently forget each other.


    “Erin, when did you be so timid? When did you be so hesitant in thece of love? Look at


    me! Even though I know that Simon is getting close to me to learn more about you and to approach you


    more conveniently, have I run away? Am I scared? Even if I feel sad inside, I haven’t given up pursuing


    Simon.” Holly eximed emotionally, and her eyes even turned slightly red.


    Even after she said such uplifting words, there was still no response from Erin. Holly continued, “I hope


    you know what you’re doing. In love, there’s always one person who needs to be more proactive. Given


    the difficult situation Chandler is in, why can’t you be the one to give him courage? Even if he’s wealthy


    and influential, he’s just an ordinary person, and he also has family members he cares about. Why


    can’t you ask him about it directly, Erin? It wouldn’t be toote to let go after you confirm with him that


    he has really given up. Think about Chandler, Erin. Think about his perfect appearance and how he


    behaved when he was with you. Are you really willing to let go like this? Don’t forget, he and na are


    just good friends, not lovers. What are you afraid of?” Holly went all out to encourage Erin.


    Instead of remaining indifferent to her words, Erin was already silently weeping by the time Holly had


    said all that.


    “Erin? Are you there? Say something! Have all my words been in vain, after all?” Holly became a little


    anxious, vividly recalling how


    suppressed Erin’s cries were when she called her in the middle of the night two days ago.


    Erin sniffled and wiped away the tears that had streamed down her cheeks. She sighed. “Forget it. I


    don’t want to pressure him. If he had a better solution, he would have called me already. Holly, I don’t


    want to talk about this matter anymore. I just want to focus on acting. You and Simon enjoy the lobster


    together. I’m a bit tired, so I’ll go back to the hotel and rest.”


    Not wanting to continue brushing off Holly’s concerns, Erin hung up. To avoid calls from Simon and


    Holly, she even turned off her phone.


    Little did she know that just ten minutester, Chandler would try to reach out to her. He wanted to tell


    her that he was currently in the parking lot of her hotel and that he would wait there until he saw her.


    But Erin had already turned off her phone.


    Over an hourter, when Ken drove into the underground parking lot of the hotel, a ck limited–


    edition Rolls–Royce intercepted them. Four bodyguards in ck suits emerged from a ck BMW not


    far away. They positioned themselves in front of each of the four doors of


    the van Ken and Erin were in.


    Ken felt nervous. If something happened to Erin, how would he exin it to Roman?


    He immediately turned his head and asked, “Ms. Lane, should I call the police?”


    Erin replied, “Wait.”


    She looked at the bodyguards standing outside the car and felt that two of them looked familiar, as if


    she’d seen them somewhere before. but she couldn’t recall where and when at that moment.


    Right then, one of the bodyguards used a technologically advanced wrist device to scan the door


    handles of the car, and both rear doors opened simultaneously. The two bodyguards gestured for Erin


    toe out. One of them said, “Ms. Lane, my boss would like to meet with you.”


    Erin felt wary, but seeing that the bodyguards didn’t immediately grab her, she surmised that they didn’t


    have malicious intentions.


    “Who is your boss?” Erin asked calmly.


    The bodyguard who had spoken earlier held his phone in front of Erin. The man on the screen made


    her heart race.


    “Ken, I’m going to meet that person. He’s my friend, so you don’t have to worry. You can go on ahead.”


    With that, Erin decisively got out of


    the car.


    Ken watched as Erin walked toward the Rolls–Royce and got into the car. After that, the four


    bodyguards returned to the ck BMW, and the Rolls–Royce left the parking lot.


    He watched as Erin was taken away, and although she’d said the other party was a friend, he still had


    concerns. He immediately took out his phone and called Roman.


    “What? She was taken away? Did you take note of the license te number?” Roman happened to be


    done with filming and was in his exclusive dressing room removing his makeup.


    Ken replied, “I remember it. It is-”


    Roman felt relieved upon hearing the license te number. He said, “It’s fine. That person is indeed


    her friend.”


    After hanging up, Roman muttered to himself. “You dide for her, after all.”
