Chapter 345

Vespera's tune suddenly faltered, her melody slipping off-key.

After drinking too much at lunch, she had felt dazed for the rest of the afternoon.

Dominic had told her to rest in the office, and when it was time to leave, he called her into his office. It was then that he finally gave her permission to head home.

Vespera had assumed they wouldn't cross paths again for the rest of the day.

After grabbing the shopping bags from the passenger seat, she stepped out of the car and walked toward him.

She stopped in front of him, her demeanor as though she had run into a colleague on the street. Her enthusiasm was polite, but there was a trace of insincerity beneath it.

The light beneath the tree was faint, but a nearby street lamp provided just enough illumination for them to make out each other's features.

Vespera's lips curved into a smile.

"Yes, I'm all good now," Vespera replied with a nod. "I have a decent tolerance. I get drunk quickly, but I sober up just as fast."
