Catherine shook her head. Her gentle face revealed a smile. “Elena, I know you were saying this to help me! Thank you.”

As expected, the female lead had an extraordinary charisma. If I could maintain a good relationship with her, it would be very beneficial for my future life development.

I let out a sigh of relief and gave her a friendly smile. “Don’t worry. The dissolution of the engagement would also be beneficial to me. I could finally complete it… I mean, I could finally be together with Ken!”

Catherine leaned into her lover’s arms. “I could finally choose my love in the future. This was all thanks to you. If you needed help in the future, please do not hesitate to ask me.”

Although I was happy for her in my heart, I later realized that Catherine might not be with Ken anymore.

If the romance of the comic book male and female leads disappeared, would other events change dramatically? This question lingered in my mind for a long time.

In the high-class restaurant, the candlelight danced, and the aroma lingered.

There were premium steaks and exquisite side dishes on the table. The waiter gently poured a glass of wine.

I shook the rose-colored liquid and toasted with Ken.

“We’re celebrating your return to freedom! Our cooperation has taken another step forward!”

Ken elegantly drank a mouthful of wine and sighed. “Grandfather is old-fashioned, and father is stubborn. I thought it would take a lot of time, but I didn’t expect you to solve it in a day.”

I took my knife and fork and struggled with the steak in front of me. I looked very happy. “Asking me to be your girlfriend… Oh no, pretending to be your girlfriend was a wise decision. Next, it’s time for you to fulfill your promise.”

Ken frowned. He looked a little troubled.

“I sent people to look for your mother’s whereabouts, but no matter if it were the mercenaries or the underground spies, they didn’t find anything. It seemed that your mother’s whereabouts were very low-key, or there was some powerful force that was deliberately trying to erase her news.”

I put down my fork in disappointment. Ken helped me to cut the steak into small pieces and silently pushed it in front of me.

After eating the steak he cut for me, the delicious food finally made me feel better.

Although I was a time traveler and knew many storylines, I had no impression of my mother’s whereabouts.

Moreover, my intervention changed Ken’s storyline and a lot of the other storylines drastically.

Hence, I could no longer rely on my memory of comic books but to take the initiative to strike!

“According to Uncle Tom, the last person my mother saw before she left was Chris. It seems that we could only start with him.”

I swallowed my food and drank a glass of red wine. There was a glimmer of ambition in my eyes. “Flying Bird was what he valued the most. If I could control the company, I wouldn’t have to worry about him not revealing any clues.”

Ken raised his glass to me. “Don’t worry. Chris asked me to meet him tomorrow to discuss the company’s matters. When the time comes, I would grant you your wish.”

He did not say it, but I knew how much he meant by his promise.

The company was worth billions, but he was relaxed as if he was talking about giving me a toy.

“Here’s to you! You’re the best partner in the world!” I poured him a glass of wine and winked at him with my watery eyes, hoping to cheer him up.

The man who was always abstinent unknowingly drank all the wine.

When the bottle of red wine was empty, I stopped pouring the wine and discovered that Ken’s handsome face was already flushed.

After Ken’s eyes lost their disguised gentleness, they became bright and sharp.

When he was drunk, he looked straight at me as if he wanted to eat me up!
