Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2046

Gab gazed out the window at the deep blue sky, his eyes squinting slightly as he spoke in a grave tone, "I've thought about it, but I feel like I was born to be here. I've forgotten what normal life is like, and I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to adjust."

Estelle said, "Didn't you mention you were going to stay back for two months this time? Maybe you should give it a try."

Gab replied, "I'm already grooming someone to take over. Now that Triceratops is gone, Citadel is going to reshuffle its deck. Alvis and I never wanted to get our hands dirty with Citadel's internal mess, but it seems we've been dragged into it anyway. Jonathan and I have a rough direction for Citadel's future governance."

He paused, a smile spreading on his face, "Before this operation, I had no idea Jonathan was Alvis. Alvis always kept a low profile and steered clear of our turf wars with Triceratops. His willingness to reveal his identity was all for you!"

A softness touched Estelle's eyes, "I must have worried him."

She looked at Gab with a playful smile, "You could step back like Jonathan, especially now that Triceratops is out of the picture. There's no need for you to handle everything firsthand."

Gab nodded, "I'll consider it."

Estelle turned her gaze back to the window, "My injuries are almost healed. I'm thinking of heading back tomorrow."

Gab responded, "I'll accompany you to J City tomorrow, then head back to C City afterward."

With a warm smile, Estelle said, "You should visit Grandpa first. It'll put his mind at ease. I'll follow in a few days so he doesn't worry about my injuries."

"Alright."

After chatting for a while longer, Gab received a phone call. He glanced at the screen, excused himself, and left the room to answer it.

Estelle picked up the tea beside her and took a sip, immediately setting it back down.

All she craved now was sugar, even the slightest bitterness was unbearable.
