It was unclear what the two people outside the window were talking about. Aubree nodded before the two of
them walked away together.
Kelvin thought to himself, ‘Oh snap. Then, as if spelling it out for Bowen, he kept up his running commentary.
“Looks like that guy just asked Miss Miller out-and she said yes.”
Ethan offered sevidence, “Looks like they're going out to grab dinner. They're walking in the opposite
direction from Miss Miller's home, and the nearest street that way is lined with restaurants.”
Samson jumped to a conclusion and exclaimed, “Oh no. Miss Miller's gone on a date with him.”
Kelvin immediately turned to look at Bowen and blurted out, “Mr. Turner, Miss Miller's gone on a date.”
Bowen's face darkened as he frowned at Kelvin. “So what if it’s a date? It's not like she’s going out with you. Why
the hell are you so worked up?”
Kelvin sighed in frustration. ‘Excited? No-I'm worried sick for you, Mr. Turner,” he wondered. ‘If you keep clinging
to your pride like this, Miss Miller will slip right through your fingers.
Kevin'd been with Bowen since graduating college. While he wouldn't claim to know Bowen inside out, he'd bet

Kelvin thought, ‘Mr. Turner undoubtedly feels he’s watched Miss Miller grow into her current success, and just
can’t overcthat mental block-he dare not consider her in
any other way.
‘Mr. Lane and the others might joke that Mr. Turner was raising a daughter, but honestly, at most, it was just like
looking after a younger sister.”
Honestly, Kelvin couldn't fathom why Bowen insisted that Aubree address him as an elder, just like Alvin did.
Bowen glanced out the window again-Aubree was already walking side by side with that man.
The three of them waited with bated breath for Bowen's next move.
Bowen was torn. ‘Perhaps it’s best to just let it go. Bree is exceptional-it’s only natural she has suitors. This is the
life she was meant to have,” he wondered.
‘As long as I'm certain she’s doing well, that should be enough,” Bowen told himself.
Bowen said curtly, “Drive.”
Ethan gasped, “Mr. Turner, aren't we going to follow them? What if that guy’s up to no good and has ulterior
motives toward Miss Miller?”
“Drive,” Bowen commanded, his tone sharper now. She was perfectly capable of handling herself-he told himself
he had no right to interfere anymore.
Kelvin let out a silent sigh. ‘Figures-Mr. Turner is overthinking things again,” he thought. ‘But the more he keeps it
bottled up, the bigger the explosion will be.
Ethan couldn't disobey Bowen's order, so he started the car. But he had his own little plan.
Since Bowen hadn't specified a destination, he figured it wouldn't hurt to head in Aubree’s direction.

The car pulled away, swiftly overtaking the two pedestrians ahead.
Kelvin watched the two figures flash by outside the window, a pang of regret in his eyes. He thought to himself, ‘I
really thought this would finally make Mr. Turner feel surgency-maybe even realize his true feelings.
Bowen's brow remained furrowed as he mulled over Ethan's words. ‘What if that guy’s a wolf in sheep's
clothing?” he thought. He might look decent, but actually have ulterior motives.
Bowen thought, ‘Bree is sharp, but even the smartest have their blind spots. What if that guy takes advantage of
her?
I'm just worried about her. If that guy really meant no harm, | could just stay out of sight.
Bowen cleared his throat, trying to sound casual. “Wait-follow them.”
Bowen thought to himself, ‘After all, Bree is practically under my protection. | can’t just let anyone take
advantage of her!
Bowen stroked his chin, mentally claiming the moral high ground for himself.
Aubree followed the man into a restaurant.
The man was Randall Galvin, a junior in computer science at a nearby prestigious university.
He was referred to her by someone at the company.
The moment Aubree heard the name, she knew exactly who it was.
Aubree thought in amazement, ‘The pioneer of otgames in my previous life-| never imagined he’d actually
take the initiative to seekout.
‘I was planning to track him down myself-now he’s cto me. That savesthe trouble.’
