Chapter 1166

"Thank you for your hospitality, Lacey. Sorry for taking up so much of your time," Adrian said. Lacey nodded in response. "It's nothing, don't mention it. Have a safe trip home. Feel free to contact me if Gloria faces any abnormal situations." "Okay, thank you. We'll be off now." Gloria waved at Lacey and got into the car. Hayden drove off once Adrian and Mya too got in. Lacey stood outside her clinic, heaving a sigh as she watched the car drive into the distance. Nicholas walked over, and she hooked her arms around his. Leaning into him, she said, "You've created another miracle, you little rascal. Let's see if anyone in Paranormal Physicians still dares to underestimate your capabilities now. By the way, what were you and War Legate Draco talking about?" "Nothing much, just that he wants to visit Mount Shangspar next year." "You're going to Mount Shangspar again? Listen here, I'll never forgive you for the rest of my life if you don't take me with you this time…" *** Hayden drove Adrian and the others out of Bortuton. Gloria was suddenly hit with a wave of reluctance as she looked back at the beautiful city. "Bortuton may not be prosperous, but it's filled with so much peace and warmth. I wonder if I'll be able to come back here in the future," she lamented. Hayden smiled as he drove. "Of course, you can, Ms. Gloria. You're free to come whenever you please now that you're cured. But could you let me know beforehand so that I can be prepared to pick you all up?" Gloria chuckled. "Thanks for everything, Hayden. You've been a great help. Also, could you help me say goodbye to Maila? Tell her I couldn’t say bye in person because Adrian has a lot to look into at Wyvern Peak." Hayden laughed. "Please, no need to be so formal. We're all family now, so there's no need for you to feel bad about anything. I'll tell Maila what you said, don't worry.” "Okay." Mya then said, "Maila's a great girl, Hayden. Make sure to treat her well. If I hear that you've wronged her in any way when I come here again, I’ll hold you accountable." Hayden nodded. "Got it, don't worry. You're all very welcome to come back anytime. I'll take you on a tour of the island. You guys didn't have time to see some of our sights, so I'll do it the next time you visit.” “By the way, are you not going back to Novemton? Are you planning to stay in Bortuguesa for the rest of your life?" Gloria asked. Hayden replied, "There's nothing left for me in Novemton, plus my family members run businesses here in Bortuton. I might go back to Novemton to pay my respects to my ancestors after Maila and I get married, but I should be spending most of my time in Bortuguesa. Of course, I'll return to Novemton if something happens. That's where my roots are after all." "Then you should bring Maila with you when you get the chance. I'll be sure to be a good host," Mya said. "Sure, I'll do that. By the way, sir. Brett's already waiting for you at the opposite shore. Headquarters has made all the arrangements for your journey home. Someone will be picking you up directly. You won't have to go through Luposia anymore," Hayden added.
