Even in the text, Caroline could tell Nathan’s tone rose at the last word.
Caroline widened her eyes in alarm. “Oh no, I forgot to erase his nickname. He’s seen it now! What
should I do?” she exclaimed internally.
She took a deep breath and tried to stay calm.
Next, Caroline replied: [Mr. Faraday, this is a sign of our recognition of you. honor.]
It is an
Nathan narrowed his eyes. Although she usually called him “Mr. Faraday” respectfully, he never
expected her to refer to him as “Mr. Faraday, the escort” in private with her best friend.
Nathan typed: [Thank you?]
Caroline responded: [You’re welcome.]
The message also included a cute animated gif with the caption [Hey, here’s a flower for you.]
Nathan laughed in exasperation at Caroline’s carefree behavior. “I should have sent her away earlier
when Jacob came to pick her up. Why was I reluctant to let her go?” he thought.
When Nathan did not reply anymore, Caroline breathed a sigh of relief. Just then, her phone rang.
It was a call from Jacob.
Caroline answered, “Hello, Mr. Faraday.”
“Carol, are you really going to be with Uncle Nathan? Did you choose him over me because I’m not as
good as him? Uncle Nathan has always been the most outstanding child in the Faraday family since he
was young. Not even his identity as an illegitimate child can overshadow his natural charisma.
Meanwhile, I’m only interested in playing games-”
“Mr. Faraday,” Caroline interrupted him. “I know you like to play games, but you also like to develop
games, right?”
Jacob was delighted to hear that. He asked, “Carol, you know about it?”
“Yes, I do. I know you have lots of original ideas about game development. You’re young and full of
energy, and I believe you will become a great game developer in the future.

you and your Uncle Nathan are outstanding. So work toward your future. I look forward to meeting a
better version of you.”
At this moment, Jacob was standing on the opposite side of the street, holding his phone and looking at
his favorite girl across the road.
Sometimes, while one was growing up, just a word of affirmation or encouragement from the girl one
liked could unleash one’s unprecedented potential and strength.
Years later, when Jacob reached the top of the game development industry, he would recall this scene
and realized that Caroline, who was across the road, had become the most beautiful existence in his
life.
Jacob’s eyes slowly turned red. “Okay, Carol. I will work hard! I’m going back to Doveston. Goodbye.”
Caroline smiled. “Okay, Jacob. Goodbye.”
After saying goodbye to Jacob on the phone, Caroline heaved a sigh of relief. She did not want to hurt
Jacob at all.
Now, she had to find out the password to Nathan’s safety deposit box as soon as possible.
“What could his password be?” she pondered.
With that, Caroline sent a WhatsApp message to Jeremy: [Jeremy, can you help me find out the
birthday of his crush
Jeremy quickly replied: [Okay.]
Later, Caroline went to the hospital to visit Nora. Nora’s vitals were stable, and she should be able to
wake up soon.
At night, Caroline’s phone buzzed again. It was a WhatsApp message from Nathan asking: [Where are
you?]
Caroline replied: [At the hospital.]
Nathan texted: [I’ll come to pick you up.]
Caroline did not refuse. Half an hour later, she came to the entrance of the hospital and saw Nathan’s
Rolls-Royce Phantom speeding toward her and stopping in front of her.
Caroline opened the door to the front passenger seat and got in the car.
Nathan’s large hand was on the steering wheel as he drove. He asked, “Have you
had
dinner yet?”

Caroline shook her head. “Not yet.
Nathan continued to ask, “What do you want to eat? I’ll take you there.”
Caroline thought for a while. As she had no appetite, she said. “I don’t want to eat anything.
Hearing that. Nathan turned his head to look at her. She was leaning against the seat with a listless
expression, looking unenergetic.
