r 412 It was the only photo.

As Scarlett Adler stepped into the hotel, her phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, she paused for a moment, considering whether to answer, and finally did.

“Hello…”

She spoke into the phone while heading toward the elevator.

At that moment, a hotel staff member happened to walk by from another direction, brushing past her. The air was filled with a rich woody scent, and as the staff member looked up, they froze.

Wasn’t this the person they were supposed to find?

Frowning slightly, they tried to match the face with the one in their mind, but by the time they wanted a closer look, the

elevator doors had already closed.

The staff member quickly pressed the elevator button, but by the time they got upstairs, Scarlett was nowhere to be seen

in the hotel corridor.

They searched around but couldn’t find any trace of Scarlett.

It was as if they had seen wrong.

But hadn’t she checked out from here?

Why would she still be around?

Could it be a mistake?

With curiosity driving them, the staff searched around, but after failing to find her, they gave up.

Inside the room.

Scarlett walked in, kicked off her shoes to the side, and padded barefoot further inside.

With her phone still pressed to her ear, listening to the voice on the other end, Scarlett settled in front of her computer.

“Ms. Adler, perseverance pays off. I went back to the base and found something related to your father!”

“Oh, really?”

“I’ve sent it to your phone. Take a look. I believe you won’t doubt me this time!” said the boss over the phone.

As he spoke, Scarlett Adler’s phone buzzed.

Hearing the notification, Scarlett picked up her phone and opened the message. She was instantly stunned by what she

saw.

A hint of surprise flashed across her usually composed face. She straightened up, and her hand holding the phone trembled slightly.

The boss had sent a photo, and the person in the photo was none other than Terry Adler.

It was the father she remembered–young and handsome, sitting in front of a computer, his black attire accentuating his elegance and dignity.

The photo was old, but even from the slightly angled shot, his face was clearly visible…

Seeing the face she had longed for day and night, a wave of inexplicable emotion surged in Scarlett’s heart, and her eyes

turned red.

She had thought memories would fade with time, become blurry, forgotten. But at this moment, she realized they hadn’t.

Her father’s face, his presence, everything seemed etched into her mind…

Her fingertips gently traced the face in the photo. It was her father, the one she longed for day and night but could never

see again…

“Ms. Adler, how’s it going?” Her boss’s voice suddenly came through the phone.

Scarlett realized she was still on the call.

“I’ll call you back,” she replied, her voice low and hoarse.

She quickly hung up, trying to control herself, but her trembling voice had already given her away.

After ending the call, Scarlett just stared at her father’s photo, lost in thought for a long time.

As a child, she never understood why her father refused to take photos. She missed him so much and begged him to take one. Finally, on her fifth birthday, just before he left, he reluctantly agreed to a family photo. But that picture was reduced

to ashes in a fire…

So now, the photo on her phone was the only one she had.

Scarlett gazed at it, lost in a daze.

She didn’t understand before, but now she did.

Her father didn’t want to take photos to protect her…

Dad, I can see you again…

Finally, I see you again.

Scarlett thought, if it weren’t for her grandfather and herself, there would be no proof that such a person ever existed in

this world…

Scarlett stared at the photo for a full two hours.

She carefully saved the photo to her album and put it away.

Once she had composed herself, she called her boss back.

“Ms. Adler, have you finished reminiscing about your family?” her boss teased on the other end.

“I want that photo,” Scarlett said directly.

The boss paused for a moment. “You mean to tell me you don’t have a single picture of your father?” “That’s none of your business!” Scarlett’s voice remained cold, with a distant chill that kept others at bay.

“They say Terry Adler never took photos. Seems like it’s true!” the boss remarked.

Scarlett gripped her phone tightly. “Are you giving it to me or not?”

“Okay, of course you can have it. I’ll deliver it to you personally!” the boss replied.

Scarlett knew there was no room for negotiation here.

If she delayed any longer, he might not wait around.

After a moment’s thought, she agreed. “Fine.”

“What time and place? You decide,” the boss said.

“I’ll send you the address,” she replied.

“Alright, I’ll be waiting then!” the boss said.
