No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 410

"What about you? Where are you?" I countered.

I took a deep breath, slowly opened my eyes, and looked around my new place, "I couldn't reach you either."

"I know," his reply made me give a wry smile.

But before I could ask why I couldn't reach him, he added, "Did you move, Licia?"

I had moved.

Ernest didn't know about this new place. He had mentioned renting a place earlier, wanting me to move in with him, and I had agreed at the time. But his unavailability today forced me to move here instead.
