Scarlett’s heart felt as though a thousand needles had simultaneously pierced it. The pain was both sharp and absurd, yet she still didn’t refuse Vanessa’s request.

She asked no clarifying questions, simply agreeing immediately. “Well, I shall comply.”

Over the following days, Scarlett only visited Ravenshade Villa to transport Vanessa to school. She discontinued preparing breakfast entirely.

Sometimes she encountered Vincent, other times she didn’t. Occasionally she merely observed Sabrina’s presence…

Yet none of this held genuine significance anymore. The media frenzy surrounding Nolan’s medical community blacklisting had finally subsided.

Nevertheless, Nolan continued receiving threats and harassment from numerous individuals.

He typically maintained his phone in a powered-off state, attempting to evade the incessant calls from people who had obtained his contact information.

During evening hours, he would send Scarlett brief messages confirming his safety.

Scarlett knew Nolan remained physically secure, but the fundamental issue remained Daniel.

This particular wave of drama had passed, but Daniel would undoubtedly devise fresh torments for subsequent occasions.

Scarlett continuously debated whether she should approach Vincent for intervention to break this vicious cycle.

After days of internal deliberation, she suddenly received news that Vincent was escorting Sabrina, Vanessa, Daniel, Harris on a beach vacation.

She scrolled through newsfeeds displaying photographs of them digging for clams, capturing images, learning swimming techniques, exploring underwater diving…

Scarlett could no longer contain herself. She immediately contacted Vincent.

Regardless of circumstances, Nolan remained an innocent party. Daniel’s vendetta hadn’t merely destroyed Nolan’s career-it had effectively imprisoned him within his own residence.

The telephone barely completed one ring cycle before Vincent answered. She could distinctly hear ocean waves crashing in the background.

“Is something requiring attention?” His voice carried characteristic coldness, blending with the marine acoustics.

Scarlett avoided circumlocution. “Indeed.”

Vincent paused momentarily before responding, “We shall discuss matters upon my return.”

Scarlett could potentially wait, but Nolan’s situation might not permit delay.

Should this persecution continue, the next target might not be merely shattered windows-but Nolan himself.

Thus she hesitated no longer. “Can you compel Daniel to cease targeting Nolan?”

Scarlett theorized that if she informed Vincent, he would devise methods to prevent Daniel from further tormenting Nolan.

Upon concluding her request, anxiety immediately gripped her.

But then, Sabrina’s voice became audible through the connection. “Vincent, look! A shooting star! Quickly, formulate a wish!”

The connection experienced brief silence before Sabrina continued. “Vincent, what did you wish for?”

Vincent responded softly, “That remains confidential.”

Merely three words, yet his voice dripped with unmistakable affection.

Even through telephone transmission, Scarlett could perceive the flirtatious atmosphere between Vincent and Sabrina.

Sabrina laughed lightly before announcing, “Vanessa has discovered a crab! Will you join us capturing it?”

Vincent required no contemplation. “Certainly.”

But then he abruptly remembered Scarlett remained on the line, prompting his inquiry, “Incidentally, what were you articulating previously?”

He hadn’t registered a single syllable of Scarlett’s prior communication.

Scarlett didn’t immediately respond.

After an extended silence, she finally inquired in a hoarse voice, “What is location?”

Identical to countless previous occasions, she sought knowledge of his whereabouts.

But this instance differed fundamentally-she wasn’t reaching out in attempts to salvage their marriage.

Vincent hesitated before questioning, “Are you monitoring my movements?”

Scarlett stated, “There exists something I must communicate to you in person.”

Vincent replied coolly, “I am currently occupied. We shall converse during another opportunity.”

Scarlett had heard that particular phrase excessively throughout their relationship.

But when would “another opportunity” actually materialize?

His so-called “next time” fundamentally represented perpetual postponement.

She prepared to articulate her reason for contacting him, but he terminated the connection before she could verbalize her explanation.

Listening to the disconnection tone, Scarlett felt her strength completely desert her as she lowered her device.

For two consecutive days, she didn’t attempt further contact with Vincent. But abruptly, Nolan ceased responding to her messages.

Simultaneously, Damian’s gifts continued arriving with unceasing regularity—never missing a single day regardless of weather conditions.

Scarlett hadn’t even bothered unsealing any jewelry containers.

If Damian dispatched them, they undoubtedly carried significant monetary value.

She recognized the wastefulness, yet Damian persistently increased the deliveries.

However, Scarlett currently couldn’t concern herself with Damian. Her anxiety regarding potential harm befalling Nolan vastly outweighed other considerations.

She waited throughout an entire day, yet Nolan maintained his silence.

Scarlett could no longer remain passive.

She resolved to personally locate Vincent regardless of his location.

She messaged Vincent, “Which city currently hosts you? I require face-to-face discussion
