“Zina, have you arrived hyet? Are you settling in okay? Was the flight tiring? Have you been eating well? Do

you have enough money?

“I just transferred another seven million to your card-buy whatever you like, and if it’s not enough, just tell

Daddy.” It was Osborn’s voice, tense yet full of concern.

With his precious daughter traveling back halone, Osborn was beside himself with worry.

Having reached middle age, Osborn suddenly learned he had a daughter. In that moment, he was at a loss for

words, unable to describe what he felt.

Upon thinking about how he'd been set up when he was young, a surge of anger welled up inside him.

But when Osborn finally saw Zina barely clinging to life, hanging by a thread, he was consumed with fury.

Osborn sternly commanded the medical team to cure her, no matter what it took.

After years of devoted care, he finally nursed his daughter back to health. From then on, all of Osborn’s paternal

devotion was poured into his precious girl.

“Yes, Zina, are you feeling okay? Do you wantto cback and keep you company? We're so worried about

you being back hall alone.” Right after that, Shirin’s gentle, soothing voice cthrough, thick with deep

concern.

Zina had been with them for four years. Now that Zina was returning halone and wouldn't let them

accompany her, they were worried sick.

“Daddy, Shirin, I'm settling in just fine. Please don’t worry. Besides, Edward is here with me, so you can rest

assured.” Zina's voice softened as she listened to their concern, her eyes shimmering with a gentle smile.

“Don’t worry, Osborn, Shirin. I'll make sure Zina is well taken care of,” Edward chimed in from the side.

“Edward, you must take good care of Zina. If anything comes up, call us right away. Once Adrian finishes his

work, I'll have him cback immediately,” Osborn said.

Osborn had complete trust in Edward. Over the years, Edward's devotion to Zina was plain to see, and as a

father, Osborn couldn't be more satisfied with Edward as Zina’s boyfriend.

However, Osborn had only just gotten his daughter back. There was no way he would agree to let anyone marry

her off so soon.

That promise Osborn made with Quincy back then was just drunken talk, nothing serious.

If Zina didn’t like Edward, Osborn definitely wouldn't force her into anything. At worst, he would just have to take

a beating from Quincy.

But Edward was actually a decent guy, gentle-natured and patient. Zina could be quite a handful with her

temper, but he had gotten just the right temperament to handle her.

If Zina and Edward truly developed feelings for each other, Osborn would be more than happy to give them his

blessing. The only thing that mattered was that Zina truly liked Edward.

Edward was the second son of Osborn’s old friend, Quincy.

They had originally planned for Quincy’s eldest son to marry Osborn’s daughter, but Osborn never had a

daughter. Seeing that his eldest son had reached the age for marriage, Quincy decided to go ahead with the

wedding arrangements.

They had thought the marriage alliance would never happen. But four years ago, when Quincy returned to

Laystoland, he unexpectedly found Zina. He was overjoyed and surprised that Osborn’s daughter was so

beautiful.

Osborn was glad that the Hanover family was really hitting the jackpot with this one.

Four years ago, when Zina returned to the Evans family, Quincy immediately sent his son Edward to take care of

her. Strike first to gain the upper hand.

The understated Maybach glided away from the airport. A flashy fuchsia Ferrari pulled into the spot they had just

vacated.

The car door swung open, revealing a long leg in black straight-leg pants and Doc Martens boots, topped with a

crisp black shirt. Her figure was sharp and sleek.

Her lips were a bold, rosy red, her sharp chin visible beneath oversized black sunglasses that covered most of

her beautiful face, exuding an air of cool defiance.

The car door clicked shut as Maisie leaned lazily against the hood, a bouquet of Cappuccino roses in hand, her

eyes fixed on the arrival exit.

When Maisie spotted Lydia, graceful and elegant in her beige suit, her eyes lit up and she hurried over.

“Lydia, you're finally back. | thought you wouldn't be huntil next year.” Maisie’s voice bubbled with the

joyful excitement of reuniting with an old friend after so long.

Four years ago, Zina went missing. They had planned to go to Mealinia together, but with Zina gone, Maisie

didn’t go abroad after all.

However, Lydia still went abroad, to Mealinia. Zina once said she wanted to go to Mealinia. After four years

abroad, Lydia graduated and returned home.

Having heard the news, Maisie cspecifically to welcLydia.

“You still have no news of Zinnia?” asked Lydia.

Lydia gazed at the streets that felt both familiar and foreign, her mask covering most of her face, revealing only

her cool, restrained eyes. She accepted the bouquet, her voice quiet and measured.

“No,” Maisie replied quietly. At the mention of Zinnia, Maisie’s smile gradually faded, giving way to sorrow.

They never believed Zinnia was dead. There was no body, which meant she was still alive. As long as they

couldn't find Zinnia, they would never give up.

Hearing there was still no news of Zinnia, Lydia lowered her eyes. A dull ache throbbed in her chest.

‘Four years, and still no trace of her, Lydia thought. “Zinnia, where on earth have you gone? It had been four

years.’

Maisie put an arm around Lydia's shoulders and said warmly, “Alright, Lydia, you must be exhausted after that

long flight. Let's grab something to eat first, then I'll drive you home.”

Lydia said softly, “I'll skip the meal. | need to go hand see Mom first.”

For the past four years, lan had always been by Bonnie's side. Even though Bonnie still couldn’t remember her

past, she and lan had fallen in love all over again.

For four years, Lydia had witnessed lan’s devoted care for Bonnie. Lydia no longer wanted to dwell on what had

happened all those years ago.

After seventeen years apart, all that mattered now was their happiness.

“Alright,” Maisie replied. She started the engine and drove away from the airport.

Maisie asked, “Lydia, now that you've finally finished your studies and cback home, where are you planning

to work? Want to work with me?”

Maisie joined the Jenkins Group as soon as she started university. Ethan beca pilot and now flew around the

world. Brian was now a police officer.

They had all kept in touch over the years, and ever since Zinnia left, none of them ever gave up searching for

her.
