Zachary glanced at the umbrella in her hand but did not take it. He looked steadily at Lenora. "Thank you. Nora. I'm happy you came, but I can't accept it."

Lenora lowered her gaze, taking a step forward she forcefully thrust the umbrella into Zachary's hand.

"Take this!" she commanded. "Get back in the car."

As soon as she loosened her grip, the umbrella fell to the ground.

Lenora's expression shifted as she glanced at the umbrella on the ground, then fixed her gaze on Zachary. "If you don't want it, line! If you wish to get soaked, find another spot, but not under my apartment. I don't want to be blamed for any trouble you might get into. "Alright, I'll head outside the residential area," he said.

"I didn't sentence you to death. You can leave now." Lenora blinked.

The case had not yet been declared, even though the judge had already prepared the verdict.

The verdict would be officially announced once the investigation results were released and handed over to the prosecutor's office.

"Really? If that's the case, may I go up then?"

Zachary took a few steps back, gazing into her eyes as e responded to her words.
