âMy father felt very guilty when he found out the truth about my past.
So, he wanted to make it up to me.
Since the problem of the new district is urgent, he decided to help, and I accepted his offer.
â
âSo, are you going to forgive him just like that?â Zoe asked, pursing her lips.
I hesitated for a while.
âI donât know yet.
But considering the overall situation, I think my personal vendetta against him isnât that important.
The welfare of the Roz Town residents is my priority.
â
At this, Zoeâs eyebrows shot up in surprise, and her expression gradually turned from confusion to admiration.
She patted me on the shoulder and sighed wistfully.
âWeâre lucky to have you.
â
At my fatherâs order, the group of construction experts from the Silver Ridge Pack quickly set out to work.
Before long, they drafted a construction plan that catered to the terrain of the new district and the current construction situation.
After surveying the terrain and the whole situation, I had a meeting with Caleb, Carlos, and the engineers.
We discussed the project in length, and soon, we arrived at a conclusion.
Just as I expected, thanks to the help of the experts from the Silver Ridge Pack, we didnât have to delay the moving plan for the second batch of Roz Town residents.
The original plan could still be carried out.
âWonderful!â
Everyone in the meeting was very happy, and for the first time in a long time, they smiled at me genuinely.
After concluding the meeting, Caleb set out to deal with everything that needed to get done.
The first thing he did was terminate the contract with Kaneâs construction team on the grounds that they didnât follow the schedule of construction as agreed.
Then he sign a new contract with the people from the Silver Ridge Pack.

To my surprise, instead of helping Caleb settle these matters, Carlos turned around to leave.
I caught up with him and asked, âCarlos, where are you going?â
Carlos explained, âIâm going back to tell Sally the good news.
If she finds out that the construction of the new district will go on as planned, sheâll be very happy.
â
At the mention of Sallyâs name, my heart skipped a beat.
Waves of guilt overwhelmed me, nearly making me lose my balance on the spot.
âHow is Sally, anyway?â I asked, wrought with guilt.
Carlos, on the other hand, was very calm and replied naturally, âDonât worry.
Sheâs been doing a lot better, and she can even speak now.
â
He sighed and continued, âThe silly girl misses Roz Town very much.
She was so excited to personally welcome the second batch of residents, but nowâ¦â
At the memory of Sallyâs disfigured face, I felt a dull ache in my heart.
