The dimly lit room was devoid of any light, and as Reece’s agent opened the door, a foul smell


    immediately hit him. The room was in utter disarray, with trash strewn all over the floor.


    It seemed unimaginable for anyone to stay in such a room for even a moment, yet Reece had been


    there for four whole days.


    “Reece! Come on, snap out of it!” The agent stepped forward and pulled Reece up from the ground.


    Reece’s eyes seemed void of any light.


    “Reece, listen to me, there’s been a huge shake–up at Russell Enterprises! Did you hear me? You


    need to get yourself together and go to the office. The big boss wants to see you, got it?”


    “Has Sophie been found?” Reece’s voice was hoarse and choked as if he hadn’t had a proper drink in


    days.


    The agent paused before saying, “Ms. Sophie is dead. You need to let go of the past. I know you’re


    grateful to her, but we must look forward.”


    “Dead? Who said she’s dead?”


    “She’s been missing at sea for four days without a trace! Isn’t that as good as dead?” The agent,


    growing impatient, said, “What you need to do now is to win over your new bosses. Otherwise, the


    career you’ve fought so hard for wille to nothing.”


    “Only Sophie can be my boss.” Reece turned away, unwilling to engage any further with his agent.


    The agent eximed with frustration, “Why are you being so stubborn? Do you have any idea that the


    CEO of Russell Enterprises authorized a merger with S Corporation? Their chairperson sees potential


    in you and wants to make you the next big star. Can’t you see what’s good for you?”


    Reece was stunned. After a moment, he stared at his agent and asked, “Who’s looking for me?”


    “Who else but the current CEO of S Corporation, ke!”


    Hearing this, Reece seemed to be revitalized all of a sudden and told his agent, “Get me ready. I need


    to see them now!”


    The agent didn’t understand Reece’s sudden change of heart, but Reece recovered, and nothing else


    mattered!


    Soon, a stylist and makeup artist were brought in to get Reece ready. An hourter, Reece stood at the


    entrance of S Corporation.


    “They said to meet you alone, so just go in, and I wait for you here.”


    The agent wanted to say more, but Reece was already focused on the top floor of S Corporation,


    saying, “Ill go on my own.”


    As Reece walked in, Tricia led the way. Reece had seen Tricia before. She used to be a frequent


    presence at Russell Entertainment, working as Sophie’s personal secretary


    When Reece saw her, he became more convinced of his own suspicions.


    He reached the top floor but hesitated at the CEO’s office door, afraid of what he might find.

    “You’vee all this way. Are you really going to chicken out now? A voice called out from the office.


    Hearing this familiar voice, Reece felt a surge of strength. His previously dim eyes suddenly lit up. He


    pushed the door open and saw Sophie, unharmed, sitting in the office chair.


    For a moment, Reece forgot his relief. “You’re alive! You’re alive!”
