Secret Admiration: Finding True Love After Prison

Chapter 733 Leaving

Before Chandler went out, he pulled Meryl into his arms.

“Do you want anything? I can bring you a gift from my trip.”

Meryl looked at him calmly. “There’s nothing I need. The child seems to be crying. I’ll go check on him. Since you’re heading to Englord, I won’t see you off.”

She took a step back, slipping out of his embrace, and turned to tend to the baby.

Chandler’s face softened with a hint of helplessness.

He glanced at her one last time before reluctantly closing the door. “Meryl, wait for me at home. I’ll be back in three days at most.”

The room fell silent.

Meryl stared at the closed door.

Her eyes glistened with unshed tears.

She thought, “Three days? By then, I would likely no longer be in Kingsdom.”
