“Is Mr. Martinez still upset?” Christopher inquired.
“I’m not sure. He mentioned he was heading back to console Sophia for you,” Teresa replied.
Christopher nodded and made his way out slowly. When he stepped outside, he spotted Fanny at the entrance and immediately scanned the area. He felt a sense of relief after he did not see anyone else.
“Why are you here, Fanny?” Christopher whispered as he approached her swiftly and opened
the door.
When she caught sight of Christopher, Fanny burst into tears of joy and embraced him. “Chris, I’m so glad to see that you finally came out!”
Christopher didn’t push Fanny away but instead whispered words of comfort before he released her.
As he let go, he noticed a prominent slap mark on Fanny’s face.
As she observed Christopher looking at the mark, Fanny quickly covered it with her hand. and she appeared frightened.
Christopher gently removed her hand and inquired, “Fanny, what happened?”
“I–It’s…” Fanny hesitated as she looked like she wanted to speak but couldn’t and she appeared. quite pitiful.
“Tell me, who dared to harm you? I’ll handle it,” Christopher reassured her as he patted her gently.
Only then did Fanny timidly meet Christopher’s gaze and she disclosed, “It was Sophia. She called me out, berated me, and even struck me…
As she spoke, she seemed increasingly distressed and leaned against Christopher.

Before he could finish his sentence, Carlos abruptly interjected, “What will you do? Christopher, you promised me not to have any contact with this woman, and now you’re embracing her!”
Carlos‘ voice was filled with anger, which startled Michael and Teresa inside the house,
As they witnessed Christopher holding Fanny, there was no need for further explanation. They immediately pulled Christopher away.
Despite their efforts to intervene, Carlos remained resolute. He departed in a rage as he warned, “The Sanders Family will face consequences.”
Fanny was bewildered, and before she could react, she was promptly escorted out by the Sanders Family.
Christopher was angrily confined to his room by Michael.

When he observed Angela halt with her suitcase, Terence introduced the individual beside him.
It was revealed that the person standing next to Terence was another senior who had also. advanced to the second round of training.

Professor Terence told Angela, “Yaxley usually enjoys conducting research in the laboratory. It was only after I convinced him to participate in the first round that he unexpectedly passed.”
Professor Terence was clearly proud of Yaxley and very pleased with his performance.
Although Yaxley appeared reserved, he added, “Professor Terence has been very kind. I

make it to the second round, it’s fine.”
When he heard this, Terence patted his shoulder and advised, “During this trip to Northland, look out for Angela. She is talented like you, and you can learn from cach other.”
Yaxley nodded in agreement.
Terence then turned to Angela and said, “Angela, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask Yaxley as he is your senior. He knows Northland well.”
Angela smiled and agreed.
When he saw their obedience, Terence gave them a few more instructions before he allowed them to depart together.
At the airport lobby, Yaxley handed the plane ticket to Angela. She realized she had forgotten to ask Professor Terence for the ticket and quickly thanked him.
“Thank you, Yaxley.”
Yaxley casually replied, “No need to be so formal.”
They boarded the plane, and before takeoff, Angela messaged Jonathan.
When she landed, she received a call from Jonathan.
She followed behind Yaxley and answered the phone.
“Have you arrived?” Jonathan asked.
Angela felt her cheeks flush at his voice as she nodded and replied, “Yes, I just landed. I’m heading to the hotel now. Training starts tomorrow.”
Yaxley had briefed her on the itinerary during the flight, so she felt reassured.

She was about to mention hanging up to Jonathan when Yaxley said, “No rush. I need to reply to a message, too.”
“Who are you with?” Jonathan inquired.
Angela turned away and whispered, “I’m with a student whom Professor Terence brought along. It’s a senior.”
She had never met Yaxley before, so she didn’t know how to describe him to Jonathan and had to use Terence’s name.
“Alright. When you arrive at the hotel, send me the address. When I’m done with my matters in Riverdon, I’ll come over in a couple of days.”
Angela naturally agreed but didn’t forget to tell Jonathan not to rush. “Jonathan, you don’t have to rush for me because I do expect I’d be busy with the training. I
She was actually a bit worried that Jonathan would come over and she wouldn’t have much time to spend with him. After all, she came to Northland for her training and would definitely be busy during the day.
onathan was noncommittal. “It’s okay. We have a branch in Northland. So, if you’re busy, I can treat it as a business trip.”
At that, he reminded her once again to send him the hotel address upon arrival.
When Angela heard Jonathan’s words, she, finally relaxed and hung up the call–after eassuring him. She realized that Yaxley was absentmindedly playing a mobile game in oredom.
