"Yeah, he had some regrets," Ss sighed, his face showing years of unspoken pain. "He was always waiting for Sadie toe back so he could say sorry in person. Only then could he find peace. In hisst moments, his eyes were often teary. He carried so much regret for Herbert, for Nick, for you, and for Sadie. He felt bad for everyone he let down."


    Micah listened quietly, his eyes deep. Sadie continued, "That''s why I hope you go after what you want. Don''t end up like Mr. Raymond Clemens, full of regrets at the end. The Clemens family doesn''t care about its century-old legacy, power, and status. If you want it, take it. But Herbert and you have always wanted something deeper. If you want it, go for it with all your heart."


    Micah felt a bit shaken by his words. Ss had always been the rock of the Clemens family, Raymond''s most trusted guy and the second-most powerful person in the family. Ss had trained Rn, Andrew, and other loyalists, calmed Raymond when he was mad, and guided him when he was lost. In many ways, this wise outsider saw things more clearly than Raymond himself.


    Ss had seen through everything from the start. He knew what Micah wanted the most, what he desired the most.


    Ss looked at Micah with a knowing gaze. "Think about it: when feelingse too easily, people don''t value them. Over time, they wear down under life''s little problems. But feelings that survive trials and tribtions be more sincere and passionate. Maybe the hardships you and Sadie have faced are a test. When you finallye together again, you''ll treasure that hard-won happiness even more."


    Ss patted Micah on the shoulder, his touch bothforting and encouraging. "So, Mr. Micah Clemens, as long as you''re alive, dreams cane true. Don''t waste the chance to build the life you want."


    These words gave Micah a big boost. He had always hoped that Raymond could say such words to him, understand him, and support him, but he had never waited for that moment.


    And now, Ss had said it on Raymond''s behalf.


    Micah suddenly felt a surge of strength within him. He began to believe that as long as he recovered, everything could change. Sadie woulde back to him, and the kids woulde home. Everything would go back to the best moments!


    The next day, Micah held a board meeting and appointed Ryan as executive director, giving him full control over the group''s business.


    At the same time, he promoted Chloe, putting her in charge of the domestic market.


    Then, he spent a day coordinating with all the important business, assigning each project to the relevant person, and directly letting Chloe handle the sports stadium project.


    The room buzzed with unease as he made these announcements; the senior execs exchanged nervous nces, hesitant to voice their concerns openly. But finally, Ryan mustered the courage to ask, "Mr. Clemens, what''s going on? What are you nning to do?"


    Micah gestured for Andrew to close the meeting room door and disconnect thework equipment, ensuring total privacy.


    Then, Micah calmly dered, "I guess I''ve been overworked recently. My health''s been a bit off, and I need to take a break. But don''t worry, I''ll be back in at most two months!"


    His announcement only heightened the anxiety in the room. Execs quickly bombarded him with questions about his health, their concern clear.


    "I said it''s a minor issue," Micah responded with a nonchnt shrug. "Do I look like someone with a terminal illness?"


    Micah had made a special effort to tidy up today. Apart from being a bit thinner than before, he looked very energetic and had no visible problems.


    "I just want to take a break," Micah said lightly. "Besides, the Clemens Group is facing big issuestely. The headquarters in Country F is in chaos, and I need to handle it. Human energy is limited, and I can''t be in two ces at once, so I have to put this site on hold for now."
