Chapter 272

Sensing someone's gaze, Elodie glanced over in that direction.

She was completely unprepared to meet Jarrod's eyes.

But just as quickly as their gazes met, Jarrod coolly looked away, his expression detached, as if he couldn't care less.

They were near the Global Trade Plaza-running into Jarrod and Sylvie here wasn't all that surprising.

At that moment, Sylvie slipped her arm through Jarrod's uninjured one, leaning close in a show of affection. The two of them had clearly been laughing and chatting just moments before, looking every bit the happy couple.

Yet Jarrod and Sylvie already seemed closer than ever.

Elodie pretended not to know them. She gently pulled her arm from Elias's grasp and turned to him with a polite smile. “It's fine, really. I've already been."
