Chapter 18

• After finishing my work, Karious and I decided to meet at the mall. I refused to be picked up and instead told him that I would bring my own car for convenience. Well, actually, it's more for protection, so we could prevent Veronica from finding us out.
• My face lights up as I spot him waiting by his car, arms crossed and leaning against it. The sight of him instantly fills me with joy.
• His attire exudes sophistication, with black pants and a sleek black dress shirt, its elbow sleeves rolled up effortlessly. He appears well-groomed and undeniably beautiful.
