But he had made his warning clear.


    Sanford was no fool; he had to understand that a man like Matthew wouldn’t allow him any opportunity to pursue Ste.


    If he persisted, the oue could be disastrous.


    Bet sighed, overwhelmed by the recent events.


    The association with the Lowell family had only a subtle influence on Ste’s life.


    If pressed, she would remark that it simply meant there were a few more people who held her dear.


    Ste sensed that the Lowells cared deeply for her and held her in high regard; however, her scant memories of them meant that her affection for them was somewhat reserved.


    What truly delighted Ste was hearing from Earle that Be’s health was improving and there was a strong possibility that her memory would fully return.


    “I hope you can remember everything in the past!” Ste eximed.


    Be, visibly uplifted by the news, agreed earnestly, “Yes.


    ”


    She yearned to escape the shadows of deceit that had clouded her life.


    As they left the hospital, Ste’s phone rang-it was Miley on the other line, bubbling with excitement.


    Before Ste could get a word in, Miley burst out, “Neville has a friend who recently opened a holiday resort.


    How about you join us for a bit of rxation?”


    Recent events had been a whirlwind, leaving little time for leisurely outings.


    ncing at Be, Ste felt a moment of hesitation.


    Be, overhearing the conversation, blinked encouragingly and mouthed, “Go ahead.


    It’s fine.


    ”


    Ste consented.


    “When do we leave?”From N?velDrama.Org.


    Miley, thrilled, replied, “I’ll take care of the arrangements.


    We can head out tonight.


    ”

    After a pause, Miley added with a hint of mischief, “And don’t forget to bring Mr.


    rk along.


    It’s rare we all get to gather.


    ”


    With a resigned smile, Ste responded, “I’d love to, but it all depends on his avability.


    ”


    Miley chuckled.


    “If Mrs.


    rk personally invites him, how could he possibly refuse?”


    Ste responded, “Don’t talk nonsense.


    ”


    Miley teased her once more before the two ended the call.


    Turning to Be, Ste said, “I’m heading to a resort with Miley tonight.


    Would you like toe?”


    “No, thanks,” Be declined, squeezing Ste’s hand gently.


    “You’ve been through so muchtely.


    You deserve some rest.


    Don’t worry about me; I can manage on my own.


    ”


    Ste nodded in understanding.


    After the driver took Be home, Ste made her way to Prosperity Group to meet with Matthew.
