For Alex, it hadn't been long since he got to know Faerith. It felt like just yesterday when he accepted her job offer, and ended up gaining the system, meeting Vesa and MingYue.
She was the one who started everything. That's why this information hit Alex like a brick.
Aira frowned, then snapped her fingers. The air shimmered and turned into a screen, showing a picture of her with her mother and father.
Alex's heart twisted into a knot. 'It's really her… Faerith, just what happened all this time. And that man…'
Alex recognized him. He had seen the man briefly while waiting for Faerith. 'Was he her assistant? Anyway, one thing's for sure, they worked at the same company.'
Seeing his expression, Aira realized it, it was the same Faerith. The woman the man in front of her mentioned as his old friend… was her mother. It clicked in her mind, if before it was just suspicion, now it was confirmation.
'He's the outsider.'
