“Don’t worry. I’m okay,” Hannah replied.
Once the police lifted the restrictions and departed, Hannah and the rest gathered their belongings and headed toward the city center.
Upon reaching their urban villa, everyone dispersed to their rooms to unpack.
Once in her room, Hannah locked the door and dialed Rocco’s number.
After a couple of rings, the call connected. A subdued voice on the other end inquired, “So you still care to call? Thought you’d forgotten about me.”
“I need to ask you for a favor,” Hannah responded.
The boy on the other side of the call scoffed, “Ah, so you remember me when you need something.”
“Rocco, my grandfather just regained consciousness. I can’t return to Valmere right now, so I need your help.”
Swayed by Hannah’s pleading tone, Rocco softened.

Rocco jotted down the address and cautioned, “Be vigilant in Hoijery.

“Alright. Be careful when you go to her apartment.”
“Okay, you look after yourself first,” Rocco replied.

Grace looked puzzled by the question. She tilted her head and blinked.
“Why do you ask, Hannah?”
“I’m just curious about Bryson’s past. Didn’t he mention that Ruby was his first love?”
