Early in the morning, when Morel came out of his room, he was surprised to see Doris still in his house. Doris was all dressed up, wearing an elegant blazer, and looking ready to go. His hair was neatly styled, and his face showed an unusual seriousness as if there was a heavy burden that he had to deal with immediately.

Seeing Morel looking confused, Doris immediately greeted politely, "Good morning, Master Morel. I'm sorry if I'm interrupting, but I'd like to return to the city due to a problem with one of the Spencer family businesses."

Morel simply remained silent, trying not to care about Doris' words, even though his heart felt uncomfortable. He stared blankly at the window, looking at the sunlight shining into the courtyard of the tiny house, making the atmosphere warm yet contrasting with his cold, alienated feeling. In his mind, dark memories from the past came back to haunt him, taking him back to the times when his life felt perfect but was shattered in an instant.

He let the outside world spin without him, choosing to drown in his own thoughts. Loneliness, guilt, and his dark past continued to haunt every second he spent alone.Suddenly, there was a loud noise from the door. The door to his room was violently kicked in, the thin wood rattling so hard that it almost broke. Marisa appeared, standing in the doorway with quick, determined breaths.

Instead, she took out her cell phone and quickly played a video,

    Marisa stared at Morel with an emotion she could no longer contain. She had watched him sit and drown for far too long, and his frustration finally overflowed from within him."That's enough! Stop your cowardly behavior!" Marisa exclaimed in a firm voice, almost shaking with emotion. You're the best one to fix all these problems. You can't let what you've done so far go to waste."The words hung in the air momentarily, and Marisa could see something change in Morel's face. For too long, he had harbored disappointment and despair, but Marisa's words stirred something inside him.Marisa remembered how extraordinary Morel was a few months ago before he became fragile.

    Morel, Marisa, and Doris sat together in a spacious and quiet room around a wooden table. The light from the large window beside them casts a soft glow that illuminates the room, but the atmosphere remains tense.

    Morel remained standing on the veranda, the vast landscape spread out before him—the magnificent buildings of the city of Spencer that now felt empty to him. The afternoon breeze blew lightly, sweeping his hair, which fell messily across his forehead. His gaze was still blank, full of doubt as if he was searching for answers on the distant horizon. There was no other sound but the wind and the small steps of Marisa, who had just arrived and stopped beside his.Marisa stood still for a moment, watching Morel from the side. His face was calm, but his eyes conveyed the burden he carried. Marisa knew that Morel was harbouring something that he didn't share with anyone- a heavy sense of responsibility. He had rarely spoken for the past few days, increasingly lost in his thoughts. After a few moments of silence, Marisa felt the need to open up the conversation, unable to let Morel continue to harbour his feelings."You're still thinking things over, aren't you?" Marisa asked softly, her voi
