Winnie looked around as she sat on the sofa. The apartment was rather empty. Apart from some cabinets, there were not many ornaments.

Channing took a bottle of mineral water for Winnie and opened it for her.

Winnie took over the bottle and asked, “Why did you rent this place?”

Channing sat opposite her and answered, “It’s close to the school.”

Winnie then realized that his school was just a couple of blocks away. She previously thought that he had lied to her about where he lived. But now she knew that this was where he stayed all along.

She took a sip of water, looked down, and said softly, “That day… did you go out again after coming home?”

Channing hesitated for quite a while before he nodded.

Winnie, holding bottle of water, did not know how to continue.

Perhaps Channing knew her concerns and said, “I will not look for him again.”

Winnie looked up, “Really?”

Channing nodded because what he did was useless as Chassell would still pester her.

Winnie could see that he was not lying, so she smiled, “That’s great. There is no need to waste your time on him.”

Channing looked into her eyes, “Did you come here to say these?”

Winnie paused. Somehow she felt that she had been seen through, “No… didn’t your sister ask me to send you home?”

She then placed down the bottle of water and said, “Since you’re back safely, I’ll leave now. I still have to work tomorrow.”

Winnie was about to leave when he grabbed her wrist.

Channing looked at her and said, “A simple reminder, don't enter a man’s home so easily. It’s very dangerous.”
