The car slowly started moving.
Looking at the familiar scenery outside the window, Scarlett Yates finally felt truly at ease, a sense of grounded security washed over her.
Finally, she had returned to Z City.
Everything went smoothly, almost too smoothly.
It was because everything was going so smoothly that she felt a bit of hidden unease, as if things were going too smoothly.
She felt this kind of doubt, as if a relationship was going too well, causing some anxiety.
The car had only been moving for a short while when her phone rang with a text message alert.
Without even looking, Scarlett Yates already knew who the message was from.
The moment she opened her phone, she saw over a dozen text messages, all from Maxwell Saxon.
Of course, there was also a call from Noah Yates.
Maxwell Saxon didn't make a single call; he only sent a series of text messages, and the strangest part was, Maxwell didn't mention her leaving A Country at all, sending only some casual daily talk.
