Olivia Lewis patted the head of the golden retriever that was biting her pants leg and got into the car without looking back.
Adam Sinclair watched as she got into the car.
Only when the car drove away did he retract his gaze.
The noblewoman called him several times, but it was as if he didn't hear.
"Adam."
"Adam."
Finally, he seemed to come back to his senses, but didn't reply. He took his long strides into the villa.
Before coming back, his heart was filled with joy.
After coming back, his plans were completely shattered.
Adam felt as if there was a heavy stone pressing on his chest. Thinking of Olivia Lewis's behavior just now and the way she didn't look back when she left, he knew that today's efforts were in vain.
That woman's heart had hardened again.
