The weather was indeed freezing outside. Angeline stopped acting temperamental, put on her shoes, and got into Sylas’ car.

Soon, the car arrived at the hotel.

“Thank you.”

Angeline spoke softly. She reached out to grab the door handle but felt slightly uncomfortable because she was drunk from drinking alcohol.

Seeing that, Sylas got out of the car, walked around the vehicle, and helped her open the door to the backseat.

“Ms. Sorelle, this is the medication to help you sober up that Mr. Golding asked me to buy for you.”

After assisting her to get out of the car, Sylas handed Angeline a bag of medications.

“I don’t want it,” she refused.

“Ms. Sorelle, you’re making things difficult for me.” Instead of retracting his arm, he regarded her with a troubled look. “Actually, Mr. Golding genuinely cares about you.”

“He cares about me? Isn’t he about to get married to his fiancée? I don’t think what he’s doing is at all appropriate!”

“Are you talking about Ms. Sherrock?” Brows furrowed, Sylas asked strangely, “Mr. Golding said he’s calling off their engagement. Hasn’t he executed the plan?”

He’s calling off their engagement?

Angeline was stunned after she heard him. “Why?”

“I-I’m afraid I can’t divulge that information,” Sylas replied grimly.

He stayed tight-lipped subsequently. No matter how she pestered him, he wouldn’t answer her. After handing her the pack of medication, he swiftly left in his car.

Staring at the back of his car, which gradually grew smaller and finally disappeared from her vision, Angeline clenched her fists. She also became significantly sober at that moment.

She gazed up at the starry night sky and took a deep breath, feeling much more elated.
