Be was surprised to hear Amanda was concerned about her and herpany’s well-being. This woman had not met her in person but was already worried about her. She feels her heart slightly warm.

However, the warmth in Be’s heart instantly vanished when she remembered who Amanda was. Her heart tightened, and she felt even more pressure to meet with Amanda Spencer to exin her rtionship with Sean.

"Thank you, Sister Amanda, for your concern," Be said, unsure of how much Sean had revealed to Amanda about their rtionship. She was eager to meet with Amanda and hear her side of things before expressing her thoughts and feelings.

There was silence for a few seconds before Amanda stated, "Be, please tell me if you need my help."

Once more, Amanda’s sincere tone gave Be a guilty feeling in her heart. She felt Amanda seemed to like her. What exactly did she think about her? Did Amanda know she was a mother?

Another silent sigh escaped Be’s lips before responding to Amanda.

"Thanks, sister, but my team could handle everything so far…" Be immediately dismissed Amanda’s offer. She needs to draw a line between them.

She continued her words hastily to change the direction of the conversation. "Sis Amanda, about our meeting. I might be able to meet you tomorrow. Is that okay?"

"Wow, really!?"

"Yes, sis…" Be slightly smiled when she heard Amanda’s happyugh on the other end.

"Sounds great, Be. I can’t wait to meet you. Please let me know the ce. You can choose any ce you like. I will ensure to spare my time ande to our meeting…" Amanda couldn’t conceal her happiness. Finally, Be agreed to meet her.

"Okay, sis. I’ll contact you tomorrow…"

"Sure, dear. I will look forward to your call…" Amanda Spencer answered enthusiastically.

After politely chit-chatting about recently popr restaurants and whatnot, Be finally ended the phone call.

However, she didn’t return to her desk right away; she stood there with her mind, thinking about Sean Spencer. Weeks passed, and Sean answered none of the short messages she sent, making her even more restless.

"Where are you, Sean? I hope you are fine there and return to our country soon! We need to talk…" Be whispered bitterly.

After another few minutes…

Be took a deep breath before sinking back into the pile of documents she needed to read.

She was so absorbed in her work that she didn’t hear the knock on the door.

Before long,

A familiar voice rang in the room.

"Sister Be, after flying for dozens of hours to meet you, but... youpletely ignored me!? You are so heartless, sis..."

Be suddenly looked up to see a young man standing before her. It was Stefan. His appearance hadn’t changed much since shest saw him. His face was still pale, and his gaze was deep.

He wore his usual attire: an oversized hoodie and jeans. Despite being in histe twenties, he looked very young. Large, rectangr, ck-rimmed sses perched on his sharp nose.

Be’s smile grew wider as she stood up from her seat.

"Finally, you have arrived, my little brother..." Be weed Stefan with a warm hug. "Why are you taller than me now?" she said as she let go of her hug and looked at Stefan from head to toe.

"Ooo, please, Sis... I was taller than you when we met before. Don’t distort the facts," Stefan smiled at her. "Sis, I’m starving now; the food on the ne was so bad, I couldn’t eat it at all," he sighed deeply while rubbing his t tummy.

"Didn’t you take a first-ss flight?"

"Yeah, I did..."

"The food is usually delicious. You can even request the type of food you want, and the airliner usually has a chef on board..." Be said, slightly raising her eyebrow. "Are you really flying first ss or business ss?"

"I’m not sure," Stefanughs while scratching his head. "Bro Leo, did I..." He nces at Leo behind.

"First ss..." Leo answered him.

"Hahaha... I forgot to ask them to change my meal. So, I just decided to sleep and y a game during the flight."

"You!" Be punches his shoulder lightly.

Stefan didn’t dodge Be’s gentle and tiny fist. Instead, he drew closer to her and whispered, "Sis, you know what? I asked your secretary to stop by to buy some food beforeing to this ce, but he didn’t let me..." He said in his miserable tone, but Be, who heard that, felt amused.

’Jeez! This kid!! We have only met for a few minutes, but he’s alreadyining about the food. Since when did he be a foodie like me? Has Jack spoiled him that much in New York?’ Be chuckled inwardly.

But she can’t me him, too; this is almost lunchtime.

"Alright, let’s eat. I already asked someone to prepare our lunch," Be nced at Leo, who was still leaning against the door frame. "Leo, is lunch ready upstairs?"

But Leo seemed not to hear her. He was drawn into his thoughts, worried about staying in the same house with Stefan.

This is the first time they have met in person; all this time, Leo has never crossed paths with Stefan when he was still working for Jack in New York. He did see Stefan, but at that time, he knew his name was Gael, Jack’s family.

Recently, Leo learned from Be that Gael’s real name was Stefan, and he was actually their hacker.

After just a few minutes of talking with Stefan in the car, Leo’s first impression was that this young man was too chatty andined a lot. He didn’t expect their top hacker to be a man who loved to chat and had a sharp tongue.

And, just now, before his eyes...

This young man alsoined to Be because he refused to stop by the convenience store. It wasn’t because he didn’t want to, but because the security team had warned them to head straight to Quantum Capital.

Thinking they will share a house in the next few months, Leo feels an instant headache; he can picture his peaceful life starting to run away from him. He silently takes a deep sigh and puts aside his worries.

"Leo? Did you hear me?"
