Chase muttered a “thank you” and turned his gaze to Sigrid and Peterson “Think they can nail it in one
go?”
Before he finished, Sigrid was up on her feet, exclaiming. “Holy cow, you actually did it!”
Standing behind her, Peterson had one hand in his pocket, a slight smile playing on his lips as he
looked towards the field “Saved you five million. How’re you gonna thank
me?”
Sigrid’s youthful face lit up with a beaming smile. “How about I treat you to bungee jumping considering
you’ve been helping me practice these last few days?”
Peterson took a good look at petite Sigrid. I never figured you for an extreme sports fan, Ms Laurence”

At this, her smile seemed to freeze a bit.
Peterson noticed her change of expression. “Someone you cared about?”
Sigrid hesitated for a moment before finally nodding. “Yeah, but that’s all in the past.

“Sure thing”
Peterson led Sigrid off again, his gaze subtly falling on a man in shades in the distance.
Where he and Sigrid were, that man was too. What a coincidence.

He was just about to follow him when he spotted Hailey and Yeager, hand–in–hand, approaching.
She always took good care of her skin and loved working out. Whenever she could, she did yoga to
maintain her figure and youthful appearance.
Even though she’s a bit older than him, she still looked youthful and vibrant, even more so than her
peers.
Now, under the sweltering sun, walking towards him step by step, she looked fearless and radiant.
Seeing Hailey like this, Cedric felt his breath hitch, his mind filled with images of her lying beneath him,
