Jim rapidly regained his health, as the fever diminished, and his injuries were thoroughly attended to. 

At the break of dawn, Jim was in the midst of dressing when a gentle tap sounded at the door. “Come in,” he called out. 

A servant escorted Melissa into the room. 

Carrying a vessel of herbal remedy concocted by Isabelle, Melissa entered. Upon glimpsing Jim in the process of dressing, a faint flush tinted her cheeks. 

“Mr. Carter, you’re awake.” 

Jim pivoted to fasten his shirt. “Good morning, Ms. Holmes.” 

The servant exited the room. 

Melissa stood aside patiently as Jim completed his attire. She then proffered the medication. “Mr. Carter, it’s time for your dose.” 

Jim accepted the medicine. “Thank you, Ms. Holmes.” 

He swiftly consumed the medicine, and as Melissa attempted to offer him a tissue for his mouth, he gently intercepted it 

“It’s alright, Ms. Holmes. I can manage on my own.” 

“Alright,” Melissa replied softly. 

Jim gazed at the bashful Melissa and was filled with gratitude. 

“Ms. Holmes, I am truly grateful for your attentive care these recent days.” 

He expressed his sincere gratitude to her. 

In the days when his fever was at its peak, it was Melissa who took care of him. 

Melissa waved her hand dismissively and said, “It’s nothing, Mr. Carter. You don’t need to be formal.” 

“Let’s head to breakfast before anything else.” 

En route to the dining area, they encountered Isabelle. 

Jim hastened his steps to catch up with Isabelle and murmured, “How did you become aware of this situation? And how did Ms. Holmes become involved with you?” 

Isabelle responded, “It was a coincidence. She was also searching for you. Then, your dad contacted Yves.” 

Jim was detained in Glenbrook and subsequently went missing.

Isabelle scoured Glenbrook for a span of two or three days, encountering the Carters who were also looking for Jim, including Melissa. 

Upon learning that Isabelle was in search of Jim, Melissa became apprehensive for her safety and insisted she accompany them. 

However, Isabelle opted to go solo but was actually more concerned about Melissa’s safety, thus she decided to bring her along. 

Tracking the leads, Isabelle pursued from Glenbrook to Everthorn. 

“A mere few days, spanning from Glenbrook to Everthorn? That’s quite an accomplishment,” Jim sincerely praised. 

This extends beyond just two cities or states. It spans two separate countries. 

And she accomplished it entirely on her own. 

Jim inquired, “And what about Yves? He sent you, but where is he?” 

Isabelle retorted, “Perhaps he’s selecting a burial plot for you.” 

In the dining room, amidst the grandeur of the elongated and refined dining table. 

Scated at the head was Jim’s father, the leader of the renowned gangster, Lionel Carter. 

Isabelle and Jim occupied seats beside each other. 

Meanwhile, Melissa sat solitary on the opposite side. 

Despite their meeting the previous evening, Lionel, though reserved and unsmiling, showed no signs of anger and treated them kindly. However, Melissa, seated at the same table, still felt daunted by his 

presence. 

The mere recognition of his status as a gangster leader was enough to instil fear. 

Given her fondness for his son, Melissa felt even more uneasy, akin laws for the first time, exhibiting great reserve. 

to a daughter–in–law meeting her in- 

On the contrary, Isabelle remained at ease and unfazed by the atmosphere, casually indulging in food and drink. 

Melissa couldn’t help but envy Isabelle’s composure, pondering that even if she had encountered Lionel numerous times and wasn’t a stranger, she would still feel jittery in the presence of such a senior figure. 

However, she was unaware that Isabelle was also meeting Jim’s father for the first time. 

Jim presented a plate of sliced steak to Isabelle. 

He inquired, “Would you care for some wine to accompany it?” 

Melissa gazed at the plate of sliced steak, a pang of envy stirring within her. 

“I’m in the mood for Asian cuisine today.” Isabelle remarked, nudging the steak towards Melissa. “Ms. Holmes, give it a try.”
