To my surprise, Atticus returned. He seemed surprised I had been waiting for him at the door, but I was looking at the scenery.

“I’ve been busy recently, right?” I raised my head to look at him. She tried her best to make the atmosphere between us less terrible. However, it was evident that he was hiding something.

“Even when you’re on vacation, you’re still busy.”

“Yes, I’m going on a business trip tomorrow. It might take a few days. It should be fine for you to be here alone, right?” he asked me, but his eyes were still fixed on the scenery behind me.

I looked out the window with him. It was indeed beautiful when the sun shone on the sea, but at the same time, it meant that night would soon come.

“What a beautiful sunset.” He sighed in a low voice.

“Let’s go for dinner,” I said seriously.

I couldn’t see his expression from my angle. But I was sure that he seemed a little surprised.

This was my last chance.

” Alright then. Let’s take a look at your cloakroom. ” He pointed at the room that I had never used before. I walked in curiously and opened one of the cabinets.

“I don’t remember bringing so many clothes.” I looked at the dresses in surprise. Even though I didn’t know much about these things, I knew they must be very expensive.

“I have a professional team. Some people can tell what size you’re going to wear just by looking at you.”

Yes, he was a powerful Alpha with a pack. I would never forget this. This reminded me of our past.

It was very difficult for me to defeat him unless I cared less than he did.

I chose one of them, changed into it, and went to have dinner with him.

I didn’t really care about what I ate, so I kept staring at him and continued drinking. This was more to ease my awkwardness.

He didn’t make things difficult for me and just ate his food slowly. This made me feel much more comfortable.

“You’ve drunk too much.” When I returned to my residence, he looked at me with a frown.

“The doctor doesn’t recommend you to drink that much.”

“I don’t care.” My face started to heat up, but it was no big deal.

“After all, I’m going to be drinking with no one for a long time.”

I felt a little regretful when I said that because it sounded like I was complaining about why he didn’t come to accompany me. Obviously, he had also received the signal, but he seemed to be thinking about how to answer.

“No, I mean, it’s okay. I don’t need to know the details of your work.” I quickly explained.

However, since we’d not meet again in the future, I thought it didn’t matter if something happened.

I hardened my heart and kissed him. Rather than kissing him, it was more like I bumped into him head-on, which almost made the corner of my mouth break from his teeth. But I didn’t care about that at all.

When he put his arm around my shoulder, I realized I didn’t hate him that much. Even though so many things happened between us, the mate connection still attracted us.

It must be like this..
