Chapter 67 Unknown Number

• The sun was setting over the horizon, casting golden hues across the water as Alex walked along the beach. The rhythmic sound of waves crashing against the shore was soothing, and he found himself lost in thought, enjoying the peace that the end of the day brought. The coastal city had always been a refuge for him, a place where he could escape the pressures of work and unwind. Today was no different.
• Alex had spent the afternoon with Natalie and her twins, helping her navigate the mall and enjoy a simple day out. He valued their friendship deeply, knowing how much Natalie appreciated having someone she could trust during this phase of her life.
