"I'll help you, don't worry. I was once there." Finch said with a calm and sincere voice.
Alex looked up, genuinely surprised. He widened his eyes, as if he couldn't believe what he just heard.
"You… will?"
"Yes," Finch nodded. "But not in the way you might expect. I won't tell you what to do, because that defeats the whole point. I won't hand you a blueprint. But I'll guide you…"
Alex's face softened as he smiled. "Thank you," he said quietly.
Finch smiled back, then added, "But before we dive into this new project of yours… there's something else I want to revisit."
Alex raised his brow. "Something else?"
"Your previous project," Finch said. "What was it called again? Neospace, right?"
Alex's smile faded a bit. He nodded slowly. "Yeah… NEOSPACE."
"I read a bit about it," Finch said. "It never made it to the public stage, right? Because of what happened… with Rebecca?"
