Chapter 83 The Past
“Bye-bye, Kaze!” said Brenda as she waved at the man.
“Bye, Brenda.”
Kaze then said to Winnie, “Can I have the home address of Brenda’s grandparents? I’ll visit them if I have the time.”
James was his only friend before he joined the army. Now that James had passed away and his wife remarried, he should at least take care of his friend’s daughter and family.
Winnie gave him the address before reluctantly going into Zenny’s car
with Brenda.
Kaze drove back to the construction site and waited for Darcy. They went home together after all the work was done for the day.
“Darcy, do you remember James White from university? Brenda is his daughter. What a coincidence.”
Kaze talked about James on the way back but he skipped the part where he was accused as a human trafficker. He usually kept bitter
news from Darcy.
He knew Darcy was pressured by the Passion Fragrance District’s project, so he did not want to increase her burden.
“Yeah! He came back to Lilyrose two years ago and we met once,”
Darcy said.
“James went to the south and founded Shangrila Group. Two years ago, he returned and the mayor even gave him a piece of land to develop his company.
“He even invited his classmates to attend the launch party. Henry and

of them. He said he admired you the most and you were his
benefactor. Without you, he would not have made it.”
Darcy spoke of the past and it felt rather unbelievable.
“Why did he pass away all of a sudden?” Kaze asked.
“A lot happened-a car crash, his company being maliciously targeted by competitors, and then his life got impacted, suicide by jumping off a building et cetera. There were even rumors about his private life in at mess, and that he cheated on his wife. It made the headlines two
years ago.”
Kaze felt bad because he saw a reflection of himself in James’ life.
“Oh, I remember he came to me before the car crash,” Darcy said as the memory came afloat in her mind. “He said he’s been searching for you and got some clues. He asked me if I wanted to visit you.”
Kaze looked at her.
Darcy’s voice grew heavier as she said, “Back then, whenever people talked about you, I got mad, so I didn’t go with him. He said he’d go alone but he got into a car crash a few days later.”
She took her phone out and tapped on the old chat with James which still had the chat log intact.
[Darcy, I saw Kaze.]
[He’s doing well and he’s near.]
[When do you want to see him? I’ll bring you along.]
Those were the last messages he sent Darcy and she did not reply at all.
As though the memories triggered her emotions, she cried.

“I’m sorry, Kaze. I felt terrible for not seeing you back then. I didn’t know you were locked up in Lilyrose’s psychiatric ward. If I knew, I would have brought you home and not let you suffer inside.”
Kaze stopped the car by the road and brought Darcy into his arms.
“It’s all right now. I’m out now and I’m alive and kicking.”
If Darcy visited him at the psychiatric ward, she would not see him. either because the person locked up inside was not him.
He was fighting a war outside the country.
The “Kaze Lee” who was confined in the psychiatric ward was a decoy arranged for him to avoid being watched.
