The next day.

Just at dawn, Sean Morgan hurriedly arrived on the second floor and knocked on Noah Drexler’s bedroom door.

The knocking had barely started when a man’s cold voice came from inside.

"Come in!"

Upon hearing this, Sean immediately pushed the door open and went in.

Noah, who was already up, was standing by the bed, fastening the buttons on his shirt with one hand.

"Boss, what urgent matter do you need me for?" Sean stopped in front of him, with a somewhat nervous expression.

The boss calling him over this early surely meant there was something urgent...

"Help me find a servant." Noah’s hand stopped moving, recalling the events of last midnight, and his handsome face turned solemn.

"Find a servant?" Sean asked, looking puzzled and confused.

Seeing his confusion, Noah frowned, just about to say something when the sound of knocking suddenly rang out again.

Hearing the knocking, Noah’s expression paused for a moment before he spoke somewhat impatiently.

"Come in."

Shortly after, the door was pushed open from the outside.

A dark-skinned servant, wearing an apron, walked in carrying a tray with water and pills.

"Sir, it’s time for your medicine," the servant said softly, then walked over with the tray.

Seeing her, the man’s face immediately darkened, and his eyes became even more intense.

Her courage was growing bolder by the day, intruding anywhere now!

Yet the servant showed no sign of fear, slowly approaching him with the medicine.

Sean, standing beside him, was also startled by Noah’s reaction. He suddenly thought of the boss asking him to find a servant earlier, and his gaze instinctively fell on the servant who had just entered.

It was only when he looked down and saw her face clearly that he froze.

"Sir, please take your medicine!" The servant stopped in front of Noah, looking up and meeting his gaze without a hint of fear.

The man looked down at the servant in front of him, his brow furrowing tightly.

Just at that moment...

...

— Knock, knock!

...

The door was knocked on again.

Hearing the sound, the man’s breath grew heavy, and he pressed his thin lips together.

"Come in."

The door opened, and Autumn Duval, wearing a white dress and looking weak, walked in from outside.

"Noah, I’m sorry... I didn’t mean to have the servant disturb you yesterday." Autumn Duval’s pale face was full of appeasing expressions towards him.

Seeing the suddenly appearing woman, there was more coldness in the man’s eyes. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Autumn Duval approached him, her voice soft and pleading.

"I told her not to come, but she saw how much I was hurting, so she came to find you. Please don’t be angry, don’t ignore me, okay?"

But the man in front of her, with his still cold demeanor, made Autumn Duval’s face change slightly.

The sudden appearance of the woman made Summer Shawcross, standing there with the tray, pause in surprise.

At this moment, she looked up at the woman’s face and finally remembered something.

The first time she saw Miss Duval, she felt she looked familiar, but she had never seen her before.

Only now did she realize why she felt Miss Duval looked familiar.

Because... she bore a striking resemblance to the woman in the photos of Noah Drexler’s mother.
