"Ash!" Bella sprinted after him with all her strength, grabbing his stiff arm. “Don't panic! I'll help you find Arnold!" "He's nowhere to be found... Nowhere!" Asher's straight back gradually bent, and droplets fell onto the floor, uncertain whether it was sweat or tears.

If Arnold had truly given up on you, he wouldn't have chere today! The fact that he did means you still have a place in his heart!" Bella held onto Asher, trying her best to comfort him.
But pain burned deep in Asher's bloodshot eyes. He shook his head.
"Arnold returned only to testify for Justin. He cbecause he values loyalty and friendship. In his heart... I no longer have a place anymore." "You do! You do! If Arnold truly didn't care about you, he would face you with indifference. He would act naturally, as if nothing had happened. But he ran away without a word. That means he's avoiding you. He's just..." "He's just unwilling to see me. Seeingonly brings him pain and anger... Isn't that right?" Asher let out a bitter laugh. His heart was being ripped apart.
Just then, lan approached the siblings. "Ms. Thompson. Mr. Asher." lan hesitated for a moment. His voice was hoarse as he looked at Asher. "Mr. Asher, you don't have to search anymore. Dr. Larson has already left the hotel." Asher's voice was raw, his eyes bloodshot. "Where did Arnold go?!" "He didn't say... But he askedto relay a message." Carrying a heavy burden, lan lowered his voice. "Dr. Larson said... You don't need to look for him anymore. He doesn't want to see you right now." He softened the words, unwilling to repeat Arnold's exact phrasing. It was too cruel, and he could not bring himself to say it. Asher froze. It felt like his soul had been ripped from his body before it shattered into countless pieces mid-air.
"lan, what about Justin? Has he left?" Bella pressed, her gaze burning with urgency.
lan's throat tightened. "Yes. He's gone." Bella stood still, frozen in place. Just as she opened her mouth to speak, Ryan stormed over. "Justin is too much! How could he just leave without a word?! What kind of nonsense is this?!" lan took a deep breath, forcing himself to remain calm. "Mr. Salvador said his job here was done. There was no reason for him to stay. He had other matters to attend to, so he left first." "Goddamn it! I always suspected his brain wasn't working properly. Now, I'm sure of it! The way he acts, he's practically a walking contradiction!" Ryan cursed, then turned to Bella, his voice softening.

Despite his own heartbreak, Asher could not ignore Bella's distress. He was about to follow when lan stopped him. "Young Master Asher!" Asher halted before looking back. His eyes were dim, shaded with sorrow.
"Dr. Larson said he will stay in the country for a few more days. He might be in Hatchbay, or perhaps in Savrow. But within half a month, he will return to Meridan." lan took a deep breath before continuing.
"Mr. Asher, if you want to win him back, you have to find him first. But how, and where... That's something you'll have to figure out yourself." Hearing this, Asher's eyes warmed up. He clenched his fists, then reached out and gave lan a firm pat on the shoulder.
