Chapter 70 Bridging The Gap
With Eric’s permission, Kate could finally freely enter and leave Summer Estate.
As for the cooperation project between Davison Group and Miles Corporation, he directly allocated an entire office building specifically for their studio with a wave of Eric’s hand.
It is worth mentioning that this decision was made after Eric agreed to let Kate participate in the cooperation project, and the office building was specially allocated for this purpose.
Eric had also told the Lowe Group. This office block would be the site of the completion of the three companies‘ cooperative design project.
Miles had given Kate the address, but the office block was still in the planning stages. In three days, they could move into the building, begin formal collaboration, and get to work.
Meanwhile, Eric had already boarded a plane to Belford.
Although Eric didn’t message Kate, Lucas still dutifully took a photo of Eric’s plane ticket and sent it to Kate to reassure her.
Kate stared blankly at the plane ticket and sighed softly with a hint of resignation.
This was her first time alone in Summer Estate since she was reborn…
Kate had a hard time sleeping that night. She eventually fell asleep while clutching Eric’s perfumed clothing. About midmorning, she slowly woke up, got up to wash, had breakfast, changed into casual clothes, and asked George to take her directly to the mall.
George, now a diligent butler for Kate, parked the car steadily. He hesitated a bit before speaking up, “Madam, are you sure it’s just the two of us going? Shouldn’t we bring a few more bodyguards?”
Kate chuckled, “No need. I’m just going for a stroll. There’s no need for such a big entourage.”
George pursed his lips and instructed someone to follow from a distance. He stayed close to Kate as they entered the mall together.
Kate let George do as he pleased. After all, she couldn’t roam around the mall by herself. George acted as her butler, carrying her bags and keeping an eye on her for Eric to prevent her from escaping.
Not only George but also at least ten bodyguards were scattered all around, constantly monitoring her every move. They were there to ensure her safety and be ready to grab her and bring her back at the first sign of escape.
Kate used sunglasses and a hat to keep a low profile while dressing comfortably. She glanced around the busy shopping centre, briefly experiencing a wave of nostalgia.

Chapter 70 Bridging The Gap
Simon and Ruth.
So now, even in the hustle and bustle of the crowd, Kate didn’t feel annoyed.
She wandered the mall for a while before finally entering a high–end luxury store.
Finished
The shop carried a foreign brand that was known for its upscale custom designs. The store clerk saw Kate, dressed casually and subtly, and gave her a quick glance before ignoring her.
After all, the clothes Kate wore didn’t reveal any brand, and in such a high–end luxury store, it was inevitable to have some so–called “socialites” visiting just to take pictures and admire the place.
So, the store clerk immediately categorized Kate as one of those “socialites.”
Seeing that the store clerk glanced at Kate and then continued to fawn over another woman adorned with jewellery while introducing luxury items, George’s brows furrowed instinctively, and he subconsciously wanted to step forward to call for assistance.
However, just as he was about to move, Kate stopped him.
Even though the store clerk ignored her, Kate remained calm. It was better that no one disturbed her, allowing her to browse the high–end suits and accessories in the store peacefully.
She wanted to buy clothes and accessories for Eric.
Although Eric’s clothes were all custom–made, those she chose and bought held a different significance.
