Rewriting My Heart's Fate

Chapter 212

The next day, I was surprised by the arrival of a group of unexpected visitors in my small courtyard.

As I was sorting through some old items in the yard, I suddenly heard a voice call out my name. I turned to look and met Lyla's tear-filled eyes.

She quickly walked over, opened her arms, and embraced me tightly. Her voice was choked with emotion as she said, "Eve, you left without telling us! You scared me to death!"

Antoine followed closely behind Lyla, looking at me with a smile on his face.

After you left, we searched everywhere for you. It wasn't until yesterday that we learned about your whereabouts from a van driver. Lyla couldn't sit still. She wanted to come last night, but it was already midnight, I talked her into waiting until today," Antoine explained. As I listened to him, a wave of guilt washed over me, but besides apologizing, I didn't know what else to say.

Lyla beld onto me and cried for a while. Once her emotions settled down, she began to look around and questioned why my phone was off.
