Chapter 157 Couldn’t Return

• Talia felt relieved when she saw Judith's reaction. When the rain eased off, she took a cab back to the Mills Residence. Upon walking past Jasper's room, Talia couldn't help but slow down her pace. Jasper's room was wide open as Madam Nash opened the door to let ventilate it so that the air in the room wouldn't be stale.
• Everything was happening as usual, and there weren't many changes, just like how Jasper previously left for three years. However, Liquorice wouldn't run out to greet her anymore, as she had left as well.
• One month passed by in a blink of an eye, but Jasper had never given Talia a call or even a text message. Occasionally, she'd open up their chat messages on WhatsApp before leaving again, as she couldn't reach out to him. All Talia could do was wait for Jasper to return and act like nothing ever happened. This was what she knew would happen from the very start.
