Chapter 444 He Has Changed For a moment, Lana panicked as her eyes slowly darkened. Ha! The
person I like has been dead for a year. However, before she could reply, her secretary pushed the door
open nervously. “Ms. Collins…” “What is it?” Lana grumbled, wondering if she should replace the stupid
subordinate of hers. “Didn’t I tell you to call before coming into my office?” “B-But Ms. Collins, there’s a
Donald Campbell looking for you,” the secretary stammered helplessly. “I’ve already tried my best to
stop him…” “What did you say?” Lana exclaimed, wide-eyed with shock. “Donald Campbell?”
With that, she hurriedly stood up and rushed out of the room, pushing her secretary aside as she did
and leaving a cloud of gloom hanging over her visitors. Kyler and Hendrix, without a doubt, had the
most sullen looks. They had both heard of Donald and knew the scandals surrounding him and Lana.

to be dead. After getting into the elevator, Lana tried to calm her racing heart. Could it really be
Donald? What if it’s just a man with the same name? I’ve gotten my hopes up so high that I can’t
imagine what I’d do if it’s not him. “Please don’t disappoint me…” Lana muttered under her breath.
“D*mn it! Why is the elevator so slow? Which company manufactured this pathetic contraption? I’m
going to change it out!” In her haste, Lana had forgotten how much she used to boast to the public
about importing those elevators for her office or how fast and stable they were.
Ding! As soon as the elevator reached the first floor, Lana frantically pressed the door open button,
hoping that’d speed up the opening of the doors. When they finally opened, Lana strode out of the
elevator, albeit a lot calmer than before. She turned left and slowly made her way toward the reception
area, only to see a suited-up young man with his hair tied and standing with his back facing her. The
stature is quite similar to Donald’s, but it’s also not the same as what I remembered from a year ago.
“Donald?” Lana said softly. When the man turned around, she finally saw that all too familiar handsome
face. Oh, he’s changed. He’s a lot paler and looks like he’s been through a lot. But other than that, he’s
still the same. His face is still just as warm and gentle as before. Lana suddenly felt her eyes watering
as though Donald had brought the rain down on her. In the next second, her vision of him started to
blur. She blinked rapidly, and even though she was still teary-eyed, she could once again see Donald
standing in front of her, clear as day. “How have you been?”

the latter asked after staring at her for a long while. “Good. Everything’s been good!” Lana replied with
a big smile. “If you still hadn’t returned, I’d have forgotten about you and married someone else.”
Donald gave that some thought before replying, “Well, you’re almost thirty, aren’t you? It’s time to settle
down.” “Oh, shush!” Lana scolded as she walked up to him and gently patted his shoulder. “I’ve missed
you, Donald!” Naturally, many new staff members loitering in the hall were shocked by the sight before
them. Does our CEO have someone she fancies? Is it not Kyler, though? Who’s this man with her?
“Have you eaten?” Lana asked. Even though it was a simple question, Donald was stunned. After all, it
was the first time anyone had asked him that since his recovery. That reminds me. How long have I not
eaten? So much time has passed that I can’t even remember.
Interestingly, though, I’m not hungry at all. There’s so much energy stored inside me that it can sustain
me indefinitely. “Not yet. But I’m not hungry,” Donald answered. “Let’s get something to eat, then!” Lana
exclaimed as she grabbed Donald’s hand. “There’s a newly opened restaurant in Pollerton that serves
pretty good food!”
