Chapter 10 Unwelcome Visitor

• I woke up later than usual, and Ivan was no longer in bed. It was nearly morning when I fell asleep, so I didn't notice him getting up.
• I took a shower before leaving our room, with a smile on my lips, but it quickly faded upon seeing the scene before me. Maureen was here! She and Ivan were sitting together on the couch.
• It was already past nine, so my in-laws had left, and Ivan's siblings had also gone to work. I watched the two of them for a moment; Ivan was smiling, and Maureen was talking non-stop. Whenever they laughed, Maureen would hug him, and Ivan would put his arm around her.
