Chapter 62 Drama

• The maid seemed taken aback, her eyes wide with surprise. Zoey could see the confusion and uncertainty in her gaze. But Elliott's kiss, though passionate, lacked warmth. It was distant and empty; as if it were merely going through the motions.
• Zoey's heart felt heavy as he watched them. Many thoughts ran through her mind. "Was this the reason for Elliott's pain and anger? Was he using the maid to mask his true feelings? And what about me? Did he feel anything for me at all?"
• Tears welled up in her eyes as she clutched the pendant tighter. She had hoped to give it back to him, and hoped that a conversation could start from there, but now it felt meaningless. She couldn't approach him again after what she had just witnessed.
