837 Chapter 836

The day Keira and Matthew left Clance, the weather was clear and bright.

Keira and Matthew got into one car, while Lewis and Erin climbed into another.

The two exchanged glances from a distance.

Keira squinted at the sunlight behind Lewis; it was almost blinding. She raised her hand to shield her eyes and finally caught a glimpse of his expression.

He was staring at her quietly, his face relaxed, a look of calm serenity.

Keira smiled faintly at him.

Lewis seemed momentarily surprised, then his usually cold expression softened. He waved at Keira, and both of them got into their respective cars. Their vehicles slowly pulled away, heading in opposite directions.

Keira wasn't sure why, but she felt the urge to glance back.

Lewis's car was moving farther away, but just as she turned, his window rolled down. He turned his head to look at her.

Keira smiled again and waved.

A slight pang of sadness tugged at her heart.

This was the first time they were parting ways since they had come to Clance and reconciled. Before this, he'd put his work aside to be by her side every day, almost like a chauffeur. They were constantly together, and now, this sudden separation felt almost unfamiliar.
