In the evening, Austin received a call from Cecily to meet up at Skyhigh Dining.After ending the call, Austin made a few calls before setting out for the date.Still, he felt his heart wrench at the thought of the location Cecily had chosen to meet him.Skyhigh Dining was where they had made their relationship official.Since Cecily had chosen that place, Austin could guess her intentions.By the time Austin arrived at the ground floor of Skyhigh Dining, it was already 7:00 pm.Cecily's Porsche 911 was sitting quietly in the parking lot. By the looks of it, Cecily had arrived a long time ago.Taking a deep breath, Austin walked into the elevator.When the elevator doors opened, soft and relaxing music reached Austin's ears.The dim lights decorated the restaurant beautifully."Mr. Campbell?"The waiter at the entrance stepped forward.Austin nodded."Come with me. Ms. Graham has reserved the whole place tonight."Following the waiter into Skyhigh Dining, Austin spotted C

As Austin finished speaking, the teary-eyed Cecily and the stunned Susie both looked at the janitor, who was standing next to Wolf.Looking at Susie, the janitor nodded. "Miss, it's true. That night, this man only sent you to the hotel. Then, he gave me 200 dollars to take care of you."Cecily was in a daze, and for a moment, she couldn't make up her mind.Meanwhile, Susie widened her pretty eyes as she put on a look of disbelief.She thought, "Impossible! That can't be true! I was already in that state that night, but he only sent me to the hotel?"Susie came from a humble background, but fortunately, she was born with good looks. She also knew how to use her good looks to her benefit.So, after she made it into society, she had always had things her way."What about the note? What's up with the note?"Susie's eyes gleamed as if she had grabbed the last straw that would save her life. She grabbed Austin's arm tightly. "If you never did anything, why would you leave that note?"

They had agreed to meet at a restaurant on a floor below Dominion.Austin hurried to the restaurant. When he saw Ezra, he couldn't help but be stunned.At that moment, Ezra looked even older than before. There was also the obvious look of fatigue on his face.Aldus, who was sitting next to Ezra, had a stern look on his face. His eyebrows were tightly knitted together. He must have known something beforehand."Sir."Ezra got up and smiled warmly like he had done in the past."Please sit."Austin helped Ezra to his seat. Then, he asked, "Mr. Lockwood, what exactly happened when you were away?"Ezra smiled bitterly. "It's something that concerns the family. Mr. Walter urgently wanted me to go back."Austin took a sip of the drink as he quietly waited for Ezra to continue."It's because Mr. Walter used Wirtucon Corporation to help you, sir." Ezra sounded tired.Austin raised an eyebrow. He suddenly found it amusing."He's the head of the family, right? Can't he have a say even

Austin was elated when he heard the changes in Cecily's tone.Perhaps there would be a chance to rescue their relationship tonight!Austin agreed to it without hesitation.After enduring the whole afternoon, Austin clocked out as early as possible. Then, he rushed to Skyhigh Dining.It was the place where Cecily had asked to meet him.Soon, Cecily's figure appeared at the entrance of Skyhigh Dining.Austin's eyes lit up as he got up and waved. "Cecily."Cecily smiled as she strode toward Austin. "Didn't we agree to meet at 7:00 pm?""I wanted to come over and wait for you."Smiling, Austin said, "You came early too.""I also wanted to come here early to wait for you." Cecily's face was full of smiles. She was no longer cold like she had been in their few previous meetings.Austin felt more assured when he saw that.After ordering the food, they began to chat.Because of the happy atmosphere, Austin felt like they had gone back in time to when Cecily had just returned to th

At 8:00 pm, Austin hurried toward Emerald Retreat, which was located outside the city.The place was one of Jacob's properties and also the venue for their meeting this time. It was also a famous private club in the city.Austin had to admit that Jacob truly was quite powerful in this city!However, for the sake of safety, Austin brought Wolf with him.Reginald was Jacob's rival. They had competed with each other for so many years, but there had never been a clear winner. This was proof enough of Reginald's capability.If Reginald wanted to cause a ruckus at the dining table, Jacob might not be able to stop him!The cab pulled up at the entrance of Emerald Retreat.Austin and Wolf got out of the car. Then, they walked into the place right away."Mr. Campbell, is there really a chance to patch things up between you and Reginald?"Wolf knew about the reason for their trip this time. As a follower, he knew that he shouldn't ask too much about it, so he suppressed his questions th
