“Son of a bitch, you sure run fast!” Bruce cursed.
Aria stood on the other side of the corridor and looked at the two of them. She felt a headache coming
on.
The next day, Aria gave Joanna a check-up first thing in the morning.
“Bruce, come out for a while. There’s something I need to tell you.”
Bruce followed Aria out of the ward, feeling a little bemused. “What’s up?” Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Aria looked at him with a calm expression. “Mr. Thompson already knows that we’re back.”
“Oh, what else did Mr. Thompson say?”
“He also insisted on awarding you an Order of Merit, First-Class.
“Also, he promised that he would stop by Greyport to visit you personally.”
When Bruce heard this, he frowned. “I’ve already said that after this mission ends, I’ll leave the
organization.”
“Bruce, have you really thought it through?”
“Yes, I’ve already thought about it. This time, I must quit the
organization,” Bruce replied seriously. “I told you before I went on this mission. This is my last one.”
“But I feel it’s a pity for you to withdraw now. Besides, the organization needs people more than ever…’

Before Aria could finish, Bruce interrupted her. “Don’t try to convince me anymore, Aria. There’s no
point. I must leave the organization this time.”
“Is there no room for negotiation?” Aria asked.
“No.”
Aria looked at Bruce with a tinge of regret. Unwilling to give up, she pressed, “You should give it more
thought. Mr. Thompson doesn’t want you to quit either.”
Bruce frowned even more. “I said, don’t even try to convince me

the time. I will enjoy the time I have left with my family.”
Seeing that she could not persuade him, Aria finally gave up. “Oh, alright then!
“Mr. Thompson will come to Greyport in the middle of the month. You can tell him yourself then!”
“Mm, alright!” Bruce replied.
As he spoke, Bruce’s head suddenly hurt again. He hissed in pain.
“What’s wrong? Do you have a headache?”
“A little.”
“Let me give you psychotherapy!”
“Yes, okay!”
Meanwhile, Jaydon’s phone rang again. Someone was calling him.
He took out his phone and looked at the caller ID. It was Carmel again.
Aside from Carmel, Orvin had been calling him relentlessly for the past few days. After all, Jaydon had
been away from the company for a while.
“Hey…”
On the other end of the phone, Carmel’s coquettish voice sounded. “Hello, Hubby, where are you now?
Why aren’t you back yet?” She sounded displeased.
Jaydon frowned. “Don’t call me hubby!”
Carmel could only change to an aggrieved voice. “Jay, you’ve been gone for so many days. You should
be back soon, right? I miss you.
“Patricia, say hi to Daddy!”
“Daddy…”
“Be good!” When Jaydon heard the girl’s voice, his heart could not help but soften.
“The company and home are in a mess. How long will it take for you to come back?”

“I’ll be back.
a few days.”
“Jay, I really miss you…”
“That’s all for now! I’m busy now. I’ll hang up first,” Jaydon said and hung

“Hey, hey!” Carmel called out a few times.
Unfortunately, Jaydon had already hung up.
Coincidentally, Aria had just finished performing psychotherapy on Bruce and walked out of the ward.
“Are you calling your wife?”
When he heard Aria taking the initiative to talk to him, Jaydon perked up immediately. “Wife? Since
when have I had a wife?”
Aria casually replied, “Wasn’t that your wife who called just now?”
“I’m not even married. How can I have a wife?”
“Really?” Aria smiled coldly and walked straight toward the other end of the corridor.
“Ari, I really don’t have a wife. Why don’t you introduce me to one?”
