As she entered, their gazes snapped to her, intense and seemingly jubilant, with a trace of excitemem that was hard to miss.

Milly furrowed her brow, confused. “What’s wrong? Something feels off.”

She had only been away briefly and had even come back early. Surely, nothing significant could have occurred in such a short span, right?

Jonathan appeared unconvinced and pressed, “Are you not upset? Don’t you feel like crying? If you need to, my shoulder is here for you.”

Milly shook her head, still baffled. “Not at all.”

He was showing his teeth in a fierce glare and asking silently, Didn’t you say you handled it? Weren’t you supposed to make them break up? Does this look like they’ve broken up to you?
