"I looked into it, and it turns out that someone paid to stir up the rumors about you and Wayne." "Do you know who it is?" "Not yet, but sooner or later, I'll find out who dared to do something so despicable." Zoey spoke with conviction, then added in a playful tone, "But speaking of which, the netizens are quite sharp-eyed. At least they didn't go off track and focused on the main things.
"By the way, Gracie, how about inviting Xander for a get-together tonight?" Grace thought the suggestion was good. "Sure! I'll send him a message." Grace opened her chat with Xander. They hadn't spoken since last night, and Grace's eyes flickered with worry.
During this time, she and Xander had been chatting regularly, and they had hardly stopped. The longest gap between their messages before had just been a few hours. But today was strange.

Grace's fingers rapidly tapped on the screen as she sent Xander a message.
She waited. One minute, five minutes, ten minutes, then half an hour had passed by.
But she still hadn't received a reply from Xander.
"Zoey, is it normal when someone who replies in seconds suddenly doesn't reply?" Zoey was puzzled and glanced at Grace's phone screen. She couldn't help but tease, "Really? Xander hasn't replied to your message yet?" Grace nodded, feeling something was off, and a sense of unease grew in her heart.

However, she was met with the operator's voice on the other end. "I'm sorry, the number you have dialed is not available." "Not available?" Zoey saw Grace's reaction and quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, maybe he has something to deal with. Don't overthink it." Grace hummed softly and thought what Zoey had said was somewhat reasonable.
"Then, I'll try calling him later tonight." Zoey sighed helplessly. "You're different when you're in love. Don't worry! Xander won't run away. As long as he sees your message, he'll definitely reply." "Let's hope so." Grace sounded disappointed, so Zoey suggested, "Since Xander can't make it tonight, how about inviting Emily? The three of us can still have a good time." Grace agreed, "Okay." That night, the three of them gathered together.

Grace decided to leave the room. She turned to Zoey and Emily and said, "You guys go ahead and have fun. | have something to do." Zoey and Emily exchanged glances. They were about to say something, but Grace had already left the private room.
Grace drove straight to Futurelink Corporation.
However, the office had already closed for the day. Grace found a security guard and asked, "Excuse me, has Mr. Fulton been to the office today?" The security guard looked Grace up and down and didn't immediately respond. It wasn't unusual for women to cto the company and ask about Xander. There had been eight or nine of them today, maybe six or seven at the very least.
He had long since gotten used to this.
