Zane shook his head. "Keep me company for a bit while I eat?"

"I just had lunch with Nat."

"You could eat something light."

Clearly, Zane didn't enjoy dining alone.

It was dull.

Bianca couldn't deny him and eventually accompanied Zane to the dining room. The room had French windows, offering a clear view of everything inside from the outside.

Seeing Zane embrace Bianca as they entered the restaurant, Yvette's mind was swept up in a storm!

He...!

He had completely changed.

Zane was gentle to everyone else, but he was so cold to Yvette. When he returned this time, it was as if everything between them had never happened.

This feeling made Yvette's heart even heavier.

The suffocating confusion enveloped her entirely.

She had always been waiting for Zane, even during the years of marriage to Alto.

But now, she didn't know what this waiting meant anymore.

It started drizzling.

Yvette stood in the wind and rain, unable to return to her senses. Eventually, her consciousness became increasingly hazy, and she collapsed in the rain.

There were noisy sounds around her, but she couldn't hear anything.

She just... couldn't hear anything.

Why did things turn out like this?

Zane and Bianca were eating in the dining room when they heard about Yvette collapsing outside.

It was only then that Bianca realized Yvette was here.

Before she could react, the man who had been sitting beside her suddenly stood up and strode outside.

Bianca was silent, and her brow furrowed tightly.

Meanwhile, Natalie had gone to Lotus Villa after leaving Verdant Villa. On the way, she received a call from Abigail.
