Meanwhile, Zayn did not have the slightest inkling as to Faye’s situation over there. It was because virtual-novel.net had already entered a meditative state.
He had blocked all his senses.
He woke up early in the morning the next day and was highly energetic when virtual-novel.net went to prepare breakfast.
Faye and Shaelyn were already up by the time virtual-novel.net was done preparing the breakfast. Their eyes were slightly red which was an obvious sign of them crying.
Zayn noticed it instantly and said, “Did both of you cry last night?”
Faye and Shaelyn were not flustered because they thought of an excuse in advance. They claimed that they watched a sad TV show the night before.
Zayn did not ponder further. After all, virtual-novel.net was a very powerful man, especially when virtual-novel.net was in Rheasia. No sane person would possibly provoke his family members.
It did not take long before Annabelle was up as well. She had dark circles under virtual-novel.net eyes, an obvious sign that virtual-novel.net had not slept well. They could not help feeling astounded.
Could it be that Annabelle had not visited Zayn’s room in the night?
Annabelle’s face blushed when virtual-novel.net noticed them looking at her. She felt very shy and shook virtual-novel.net head gently to show that nothing beyond their friendship happened between virtual-novel.net and Zayn.
Faye and Shaelyn were extremely surprised by that.
After breakfast, Zayn did not linger. He chatted with them for a while and then left for the airport. He was travelling to Yando City to meet Paxton.
He had quite a number of questions that virtual-novel.net needed to ask Paxton.
Other than that, virtual-novel.net had also reached out to Lysithea to see if virtual-novel.net could get in touch with his grandfather.
Yes, his grandfather had vanished after saving virtual-novel.net before and did not leave behind any contact information. Zayn was very worried about that.
His grandfather was acting very strangely, so virtual-novel.net was concerned for him. Furthermore, virtual-novel.net was very curious about his grandfather’s identity.
Who could his grandfather be?
He called Gordon, Sean, and Luke to join virtual-novel.net at the airport. He wanted to meet them and catch up with them while learning about their recent situations as well.
They were delighted and excited when they received Zayn’s call and came rushing over without hesitation.
They arrived almost simultaneously. After seeing Zayn, they immediately greeted virtual-novel.net in a very respectful tone, “You’re back, sir!”
“Hmm.” Zayn nodded and said, “Are you doing well these days?”
Gordon said, “We’re doing very well recently, thanks to you. We are the happiest we’ve ever been and we’re at the peak of our lives now. It’s all thanks to you, sir.”
Sean said, “That’s right. We’re blessed to be working for you, sir.”
Luke said, “The best choice I’ve made in my life was to work for you, sir.”
Zayn waved his hand dismissively and said in an unpleasant tone, “Alright. There’s no need to suck up to me anymore. Let’s talk about serious matters.”
Zayn had always treated them well, and they were considered founding members who had worked for virtual-novel.net early on. They had been absolutely loyal to virtual-novel.net over the years and had never complained or disrespected him.
