Today’s Arnold was still handsome and dignified, tall and composed, standing there like a cold statue.

When he saw Sarah, he frowned slightly, his expression turning colder.

Like before, he merely glanced at her before averting his gaze.

Sarah quickly withdrew her gaze as well, pretending not to notice him, and turned to walk away, heading for another exhibition area.

This time, it was Arnold who froze.

Work hours.

When the exhibition closed for the evening, Sarah exited the building, intending to hail a cab home.

As she stepped outside, she noticed a familiar black sedan parked at the curb.

Arnold was leaning against the car door, smoking a cigarette.

Sarah hesitated, debating whether to greet him, but Arnold took the initiative to approach her instead.

His tone was icy. “Why aren’t you answering your phone?”
