"Rica, good to see you again!"
Alex gave me a smile when she saw me checking on Austin's office. "Uhm... Is Austin there?" I asked. "Oh, he's gone to Oliver's Dad. It's his death anniversary."
"I see. Thank you." Brokenhearted, I left UMI and then took a cab. I guess this might be our goodbye Austin.

"He must be so disappointed right now. I failed once again as the president of UMI after him." said Oliver as he touch his father's tombstone.
"I wouldn't say anything like that Oliver. I've seen your efforts and dedication of taking care what your father has left you." was my reply to Oliver.
"I'm sorry about yesterday." he began. "I didn't know Donna made up that story." he continued.
"How did you know that Donna made up the engagement story?" I asked.
"Well, someone has confirmed what my father had promised to you before he retired. Though I didn't believe it at first, it came from Donna herself when I asked her.
Flashback
"How could you lie to me Donna. You have hurt me and Austin's feelings."
"It's not yours and Austin's fault Oliver, it's that Rica's fault! We were fine before that woman showed up took Austin away from me!" said Donna while trying to defend herself from the situation.
"Austin was never yours Donna and he will never be yours." was the last thing I told her before coming here.
End of Flashback
"I'm sorry to hear that you had a fight with Donna because of me."
"I should be the one who's sorry Austin. Father has loved you like his own and I have always wanted you to become my brother. I was blinded by my sister's selfishness and I'm sorry if I hadn't checked on this."
"That's alright Oliver, I'm glad that it turned out well."
"Not yet Austin, I still have one last thing to say."
"What is it?" I asked Oliver.
"Rica just resigned today."
