Noland Lee opened his eyes and looked around, only to see Denise Green holding a book and reading, without a sight of Selena.

"You're awake."

Denise closed the book in her hand, bent her arm onto the edge of the table, supporting her head as she gazed at Noland:

"How did it go? Did Professor Erica agree to help you reconcile the conflict?"

"She agreed, and she already sent the letter to Selena's father," Noland said with a smile.

"Phew~" Denise patted her chest and let out a sigh of relief:

"That's good. Although it might not resolve our disputes completely, at least it can secure us a relatively safe period of time."

"Are you really worried that Mingwaq Pomida will take the opportunity to make a move against us and hit us hard?" Noland lifted his hand and gently caressed her head.
