Chapter 622

“Tim, considering it’s still early, how about we head down to the basement floor for a few rounds?

You’ve been buried in work for years without a break, wouldn’t it be nice to unwind a bit?

“I’ve heard that Xanier Island has invited professional gamblers to oversee the games. Maybe we even

join them for a few rounds later.”

With Ginger still in the room, Timothy promptly declined, stating, “No, I’m not going.”

could

Exiting the elevator, they crossed through the lobby on the ground floor before proceeding toward the

accommodation area on the opposite.

Outside, the rain continued to pour heavily.

“Tim.”

Just then, Luna stood at the entrance with her suitcase, completely drenched from the rain, her

beautiful figure catching the attention of many men around.

As they approached the door, Timothy’s expression soured. “What brings you here?”

“I heard about the reishi mushroom auction at Xanier Island, so I hurried over. The airport closed due to

heavy rain, so I had to pay a fisherman a hefty sum to smuggle me here. I didn’t expect to run into

you!”

Luna replied.

She gazed up at Timothy with anticipation, yet his expression remained stoic.

Without hesitation, Caleb removed his suit jacket and draped it over Luna’s shoulders.

“Luna, you’re being too reckless. If the fisherman who brought you here has malicious intentions, you

could be in serious danger. This is Xanier Island, a place where anything can be bought and sold.”

Despite the warning. Luna managed a faint smile. “I get it, but I’m also eager to find the reishi

mushroom quickly so Grandma Laura can wake up. I want to pitch in as well!”

As her words trailed off, Luna cast a cautious glance at Timothy. “Tim, I promise I won’t cause any

trouble for you.”

Timothy remained silent as Caleb stepped forward to retrieve Luna’s luggage.

At that moment, a sleek black Lincoln limousine pulled up outside, its brakes making a slight squeak as

it halted at the entrance.

Standing nearby, Luna accidentally got splashed with rainwater from the vehicle, making her already-

drenched dress even dirtier.

Just as Caleb was about to speak, the Lincoln limousine abruptly stopped. A team of black–clad

bodyguards swiftly emerged from both sides, lining up in front of the car door.

Their demeanor exuded an intimidating presence.

In addition to the imposing bodyguards, a red carpet had been rolled out from the car door, extending

into the hotel lobby.

The driver respectfully exited the vehicle and approached the passenger side, opening the door.

Stepping out was a figure in black high heels, highlighting slender and elegant legs.

The onlookers held their breath, their anticipation mounting as they watched the woman step out of the

car, eager to catch a glimpse of her identity.

She was dressed in a flowing black gown, her dark hair gently curled, and a sparkling diamond

necklace adorned her neck.

She wore no makeup, just a bold stroke of bright red lipstick, which accentuated her beauty with a

confident flair!

As Timothy laid eyes on the woman exiting the car, he was momentarily stunned. Her familiar features

stirred something deep within him.

It felt as though his mind had been momentarily blanked!

He instinctively tried to approach her, but the bodyguards intervened, leaving him with no choice but to

watch helplessly as she walked past.

It took a moment for Timothy to collect himself. He pushed past the guards and hurried toward the

woman, calling out, “Mia!”

Timothy seized her wrist, his gaze locked onto her features that mirrored his memories, his heart

pounding with a blend of joy and incredulity. “It’s really you, isn’t it?”

He was convinced all along that Mia hadn’t died!

After tirelessly searching for her for four years, he had finally found her.

In an instant, Mia lifted her hand and delivered a swift, resounding slap across his face!
