I pursed my lips and said to him, "Mr. Granger, lying is the most shameful act between people."

"Lying?" He mocked, "What did I lie to you about?"

I didn't say a word. A taxi came and I stretched my hand out for it. When the taxi pulled up in front of me, I got in and gave the hotel address to the driver.

When Shirley came out, the taxi was already a distance away. I noticed that she was frowning at Irvin, as if she was complaining about something.

I didn't want to ask about what had happened after Irvin's car accident. If our lives had become separated, then we should live our own lives.

I was finally back at the hotel.

As soon as I entered the hotel, I saw Hendrix, who was waiting for me in the lobby. He was wearing a black suit as per usual, matched with a pair of eyecatching black leather shoes. He stood in the lobby with one hand in his pocket. He was such a strong presence in any room that he was in.

I was aghast, lost my footing and fell to the ground. Conflicted feelings arose in my heart. Should I tell him what happened with Irvin? When Hendrix noticed me, he took long strides forward and walked towards me. As I looked at his figure, he reminded me of the sun.

He towered over me. Before I could speak, he took me into his arms.
