Was it too late to like her?

He had never thought that it would be too late.

Time passed by so quickly yet silently. In the blink of an eye, so many years had passed, and he had never uttered even a single word of confession.

He always thought that he would have the chance, but who knew... that she fell head over heels in love with someone else before he was able to tell her how he truly felt.

She didn't even feel nervous or shy anymore when she teased him about it.

Although Sam wasn't an expert in girls, he did know some basics.

He knew that a girl would become shy when they met someone they like, but Vera did not appear this way in front of him.

Now...

The light in his eyes grew dim. He pursed his thin lips and did not speak again. His whole aura suddenly had a great change. She had always thought that he was a pure man, who would blush even when she spoke just a few words to him.

But now... She suddenly felt that he wasn't even a person at all, but a pool of stagnant water.

He wasn't angry, but he felt cold instead.

What was... going on?

She subconsciously bit her lower lip as she felt the sudden change. Was he angry because of what she said previously?

"Hey, what I said just now... Don't take it too seriously. I wasn't trying to make fun of you. It's just something I blurted out when you suddenly leaned in to me. Anyone would have misunderstood when they saw us."

He raised his head and smiled faintly at her.

He said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that. Since your fever has gone down, I won't bother you anymore."

After saying that he turned around and left the kitchen. Vera noticed something about the way he was acting...
