I rushed into the parking garage through the rain, suppressing the displeasure in my heart as I sat in the car.
Messages from my best friend popped up one after another, talking about the seven–year itch, about marriages of convenience, stinging my eyes until they watered.
I angrily sent messages to Adrian.
[Adrian, if it really doesn’t work out, let’s just get divorced.]
[To be honest, do you even love me at all? If you love me, please tell me loudly; if you don’t love me, then there’s no need to continue this marriage.]
[Let’s both cut our losses early, don’t waste any more of my time, you’re even hindering me from finding my young stud.]
After letting out these harsh words.
I hurriedly deleted our conversation, tossing my phone aside carelessly.
So I didn’t see that due to poor signal, only the first and third messages were sent out of the three.
Time ticked by minute by minute.
I waited in the car for a full twenty minutes, but there was no reply from Adrian.
I was completely disheartened, enduring the dull pain in my chest as I instructed my assistant to draft a divorce agreement and mail it to our
home.

As soon as I arrived at the company.
I immediately threw all the matters with Adrian to the back of my mind, fully immersing myself in work.
After successfully concluding a morning of work, I was very happy and bought milk tea for everyone in my tea
The new intern, Jake, was the first to rush out and take the milk tea, then he scratched my palm.
“Congratulations, sis, today’s milk tea is especially sweet…”
I uricomfortably withdrew my hand, frowning and about to speak, when I unexpectedly met a gaze through the glass door-
Adrian stood in formal attire in the shadowy corridor, holding a thermal lunch box.
His eyes were dark, his face expressionless.
Who knows how long he had been standing there watching.
I was a bit surprised to see him: “A–Adrian? Why are you here?”
Adrian shifted his gaze from Jake to meet my eyes, slowly curling his lips into a smile that sent chills down my spine:
“Honey, I’ve come to bring you lunch.”
He bit out this intimate term of endearment clearly and loudly.
It caused quite a stir in the quiet office.
My breath caught.
This term of endearment in my memory was always accompanied by the dim light of the bedroom.
Under the light.
