Over two years had passed, and upon reflection, Jack Stewart now seemed more like the man she had first known.
He didn't linger in one place for long.

In the empty corridor, faint footsteps sounded from behind.
Hannah walked on as usual. Halfway through, she stopped and said softly, "Haven't left yet? Waiting here for me?"
The man stopped in his tracks.

Then she regained her composure and said indifferently, "So it's you."
Jackie Qualls then stepped forward. As the shadows fell away from him, he looked up, revealing a face as smooth and radiant as jade.
He spoke gently, "Who did you think it was just now?"
