But she was also relieved that lan was a very tidy man; all his shoes were stored inside the shoe cabinet, with none left outside.

If Samuel found shoes belonging to a man here, her life would fall apart completely.

Samuel placed a gift box on the dining table and met her gaze.

Her eyes were soft like water, and her cheeks flushed as if touched by blush.

This face, with such an expression, it wouldn’t be unfair to call her a enchantress.

His fingertips paused slightly as his gaze fell on her cheek. “Did Charles hit you?”

Yolanda felt a tingling on her scalp from the provocation. Charles was a strict older brother. Though not her biological brother, he was like an elder to her.

Samuel is twenty–seven this year, looking more mature and steady than his peers. He always slicks his hair back.

He once said that looking mature helps to command respect.

“Charles…”

This way of addressing him had changed tone, sounding melodious and lingering.

Samuel’s eyelashes trembled as he looked away. “Mom and Dad tried calling you but couldn’t get through. Charles said you didn’t come home last night. I just guessed you might be here.”

She couldn’t hear what Samuel was saying. After the fear disappeared, what remained was the most primal feeling.

Samuel kept talking but then saw her suddenly slump over the table like she was crying.

The shoulder blades on her back looked like fluttering butterflies, as if they might break through the fabric and fly away at any moment.

“Yolanda, are you crying?”

Samuel hesitated slightly, then rested his hand on her shoulder.

Yolanda looked up, her eyes hazy and clouded with drunkenness, a flush spreading across her

face.

A different color reflected in his pupils.
