Chapter 1705

Alina wasn't sure if Skylar had seen what had just happened.

"I saw everything," Skylar said directly. She didn't see a need to pretend she hadn't witnessed it.

Alina's face went pale again, all the color draining from her complexion. "I..."

Skylar glanced at the time. There was still an hour before her work shift, and she realized she was a little hungry. "Have you had lunch yet? How about we grab a bite to eat?"

Alina nodded.

Lost in her thoughts, Alina followed Skylar to a nearby restaurant. After ordering, Skylar poured a cup of water and handed it to Alina, hoping it might help her relax.

"Thank you," Alina said as she took a few sips. Gradually, she began to calm down.

Then she looked up at Skylar. "The person earlier was my first love. We broke up due to some misunderstandings, and today we ran into each other. I learned the truth about what happened back then and realized I had misunderstood him.

"So, I ended up chasing after him. But now that I've calmed down, I see that I was too impulsive earlier."

"Your first love?" Skylar said, surprised.

Alina lowered her head, feeling a little guilty. "When I was with Harvey, I had already decided to let go of the past. I truly believed that Harvey was the one I could spend my life with. He's a great person. I just... couldn't control my emotions earlier."
