Chapter 106

Chapter 106

Mitchell was left speechless by Effie's words. For a moment, he looked completely thrown, regret flickering in his eyes.

He opened his mouth, as if to defend himself, but nothing came out.

Without another glance, Effie turned and walked away, leaving Mitchell standing there alone, his expression clouded with uncertainty.

She had no desire to get tangled up with Mitchell anymore.

Whatever feelings she once had for him had long since vanished. Now, all she wanted was to focus on her new life.

"Effie..." he murmured under his breath, his voice tinged with a regret he could barely hide.

As Effie stepped out of the café, she drew in a deep breath.

Seeing Mitchell again, she realized how calm she felt. The old hurt from their breakup was gone.
