"Cathy, I was just looking for you. Mr. Langley? What are you two—"Olivia smiled as Cathy and Felix walked into the ballroom together, but her steps faltered slightly when she noticed Felix beside her sister."Good evening, Mrs. Lanyon. It's a pleasure to meet you. Congratulations on finding your sister." Felix gave her a polite nod and a gentle smile."Olivia, Mr. Langley and I knew each other at the orphanage. I'll explain everything later." Cathy linked her arm with Olivia's."Really? I didn't know you two had met back then." Olivia looked surprised."I feel partly responsible for what happened. I owe the Melville family an apology." Felix's tone was sincere."Mr. Langley, we've already talked about this. It wasn't your fault." Cathy looked at him with a helpless but disapproving expression."Humor me, just this once." Felix tilted his head slightly, a faint smile appearing on his lips.Cathy sighed, knowing she couldn't change his mind. Olivia watched the exchange quietly, a thoug

"Good morning, Miss Cathy. How have you been? Carter mentioned you've taken a liking to Yvonne Benedict's violin pieces. She's holding a solo recital tonight and sent me two tickets for tonight's premiere. Would you like to come along?"At eight in the morning, Cathy had just finished washing up and returned to her room when she saw the message pop up on her phone. It was from Felix.He'd messaged her almost every day since they reunited at the banquet. Nothing important—just small talk about life, work, whatever came to mind. Carter had told her after the party that she could relax around Felix, treat him like another brother. So she did. To her, he was no different from Carter, Kyle, or Eric. When she saw the invitation, she said yes without overthinking it. She did like Yvonne Benedict's music. She listened almost every day. She'd become a fan.After replying, Cathy headed downstairs for breakfast. The moment she walked into the dining room, she saw Kyle at the table in an off-white

“Boss, we have an update on the men in black who took the Lewises away on the night of the banquet.”Carter slowly lifted his head from the stacks of documents on his desk. A trace of fatigue lingered in his eyes after heavy workloads, but his gaze remained sharp. He looked at his assistant, signaling him to continue.“After the Lewis mother and son were taken away that night, we immediately pulled the surveillance footage from the surrounding area. We found that they got into a car with its license plate obscured by mud and headed toward the western district. They eventually disappeared somewhere around the old industrial zone.” The assistant spoke calmly, though there was a note of caution in his voice. “Our men arrived at the old industrial zone and found the car outside an abandoned factory. We checked the plate and discovered it was a fake. The real owner of that plate was an elderly teacher who had already passed away.”Carter tapped his fingers lightly against the desk twice, hi

The moment the car door closed, Cathy let out a quiet breath.She turned to Felix and gave him a grateful smile. “Back there… thank you.”Felix started the engine, his eyes still on the road ahead. “No need to thank me. Someone like that isn’t worth your breath.”The car pulled out of the concert hall parking lot and merged into the flow of traffic. Streetlights swept past the windows one by one. For a while, neither of them spoke.Felix kept his eyes on the road. After a moment, he said, “Carter’s been looking into what happened that night. After the banquet, when the Lewis mother and son were taken away.”

The Langley estate sat on a sprawling stretch of green, its long gravel driveway lined with old oaks. Cathy had been quiet the entire ride, her hands folded in her lap, watching the countryside slide past the window.Felix glanced at her once. “Nervous?”“A little.” She admitted it without looking at him. “It’s been a long time.”“He’s been waiting for this longer than you have,” Felix said. “Trust me. He’s not going to care about the years. Just that you’re here.”The car pulled up to the front steps. A butler was already waiting. He led them through a grand foyer and into a sunlit drawing room where two people were seated.Mrs. Langley rose first. She was exactly as Cathy remembered—tall, composed, with that same cool, assessing gaze. But when she smiled, the severity melted away.“Cathy, dear.” She crossed the room and took Cathy’s hands. “We’ve been looking forward to this.”“Thank you for having me, Mrs. Langley.”“Please, call me Eleanor.” She squeezed Cathy’s hands gently. “Feli
