After Larry left, Josie noticed Paul looking outside the office window with an indiscernible
expression. Josie approached him and asked, “What’s the matter, Paul? Aren’t you happy
for your daughter?”
“Of course I’m happy,” Paul answered, holding onto a walking stick. “I’m proud to see how
far you’ve come.”

Paul mulled over what she said as he patted her head. After a deep sigh, he said, “It’s your
choice. If you’re willing to stay by his side unconditionally, I’ll support you.”
Suddenly, Alice shouted from the outside, “Jo, there’s another flower basket for you. Come
and take a look.”
“It must be Laura’s friend.” Josie walked out and saw a huge flower basket placed at their

A young lady with curled hair framing her gorgeous face stood in front of the villa with an
umbrella. She had been there the whole day.
The villa was located by the beach. In the brief flash of lightning, the villa appeared, its
unique and beautiful design silhouetted against the night sky.
The young lady was Summer.
She stood there with a determined glare. Hope was dwindling, but she refused to give up.
She would hold on to any slight chance, no matter how small.

question that they would strike.
The company interested in taking over Vaste was one which can never be underestimated
the Carter Group.
Arnold wasn’t going to back down anytime soon. The revelation of this news meant that

wouldn’t budge at his attempts to pursue her. Therefore, he was adamant not to waste

deliberate attempts to see him. Understanding his intentions, Summer wasn’t confident
she could meet him today.
Furthermore, she had chosen to meet him at this villa.
