His Heart Is Now Elsewhere

Chapter 2

I didn’t wake up Tyrell like I used to, hysterically questioning him about random things.

After leisurely frying the egg rolls, I had just sat down at the dining table when I heard Tyrell, who had just woken up, say, “Don’t wait for me for dinner tonight, there’s a company dinner.”

The man opened the refrigerator and drank two sips of cold water.

Suddenly, it struck me as strange that I hadn’t nagged him about how cold water can hurt the stomach, nor asked who would be at the dinner party.

Through the kitchen glass, Tyrell frowned and looked at me, “Lailah, were you listening to me?”

I cleared my throat and continued eating.

Seeing the situation, the man threw his black coat to me.

“The birthday gift I gave you.”

The coat, with a sweet and fragrant scent, covered my flat abdomen perfectly.

Under the man’s gaze, I fumbled in the coat pocket and found a gift box.

Open the box, and inside was a diamond ring.

Before I could say anything, Tyrell calmly snatched the ring back.

He said, “You took the wrong one, yours is on the other side.”

The other pocket contained an emerald brooch.

I took just one glance and then handed it back to him.

Then, politely, he said, “The brooch is very beautiful, but unfortunately I don’t have clothes that
