Zoey shot Harlan an annoyed look. “What are you doing here?”

He looked a little travel–worn as if he had just rushed over from somewhere far away. But at least he seemed better than the last time I saw him, when he was stuck in a cast.

I let out a small sigh of relief. After all, he had gotten hurt because of us.

If he had died in that accident, I would never have forgiven myself.

I had no idea how things were progressing between him and Zocy, but one thing was certain–he still had feelings for her.

You could always tell when a man was truly in love.

Just like now–his eyes, his entire world, were only filled with Zocy.

In his hand wasn’t his usual briefcase, but a food container. “Didn’t you say you love my staff’s cooking? I asked him to make something for you before I came. I kept it warm on the way–it should still be hot. Try it.”

Zoey’s retort caught in her throat. “Huh? Oh. Fine.”

Then, Harlan turned to Carter. “I heard Chloe made it back alive. Where is she? I even brought something

she likes.”

He really had to pick that topic, didn’t he?

Zoey shot him a warning glance, but Harlan just frowned. “What’s wrong with your eye? Got dust in it? Want me to blow it out?”

Without another word, she grabbed him by the arm and dragged him out of the room.

I turned to Carter. “He didn’t mean anything by it. Don’t let it bother you.”

“I’m fine.”

But he wasn’t fine. The weight of everything still lingered in his gaze, heavy and unresolved. I knew what was tormenting him–me, but I had no way to fix it.

I wanted to return to my body, but something invisible, something I couldn’t understand, kept me from getting close.
