She stirred the porridge in her bowl awkwardly and stammered, “This porridge… is not bad.”
Cordell looked up at her and said softly, “Then eat more. I’ll send you to the magazine agency after you’re done.”
Last night, she vomited until her stomach was empty. She ate a bowl of porridge with pickled vegetables and drank half a glass of milk.
Seeing that she had a good appetite, Cordell smiled in satisfaction.
After breakfast, she rejected Cordell and took a taxi to the magazine agency.As soon as she entered the office, Horacio came over and asked mysteriously, “Where did you go yesterday?”
“I’m home.” She took out her phone. She didn’t know when it had run out of battery, but it had automatically turned off. Fortunately, she had a charger in her bag.
Horacio said, “Oh,” and asked her how the situation had been last night. She shrugged and said that she had not received any news.

If Cordell had not appeared in time to take her away, she would have fallen into Loyd’s hands and lost her innocence.
She did not know that Jackson had sent someone to call Cordell. She thought that Cordell had coincidentally met her with Loyd and brought her back to the villa.
Without any news from Loyd, Elaine and Horacio were at their wits‘ end. She came back from the tea indirectly and Horacio excitedly asked her to watch the news.

At this moment, Jackson was also at the resort. He was accompanying Daniel to survey the surrounding environment.
The construction of the resort was originally the responsibility of one of
the company’s higher–ups, but with such a thing happening, as the company’s big boss, Jackson was naturally involved.
He had handed the phone to Cyrus and Elaine when he called. The phone was with Cyrus.
Cyrus looked at Jackson, who was walking with Daniel, and walked to a quiet place to answer the call. “Ms. Valentine?”

Elaine did not beat around the bush. “Is he busy with Southshore Resort? Is he at the resort?”
Cyrus nodded and continued to ask, “Daniel is here too?”
Cyrus was puzzled. He did not know why she was asking this, but he still answered truthfully, “Yes.”
“Mr. Mason, if he’s busy, I can look for you. I’ll be outside the resort.”

As soon as he approached, he heard Elaine say, “We’re here to look for Daniel. Please bring us in.”
