Chapter 114: Solitude Hidden Behind a Smile

Upon hearing Cheyenne agree to be Master Iker’s companion, Omari immediately became unhappy. He had been pursuing Cheyenne for almost four years and she had never agreed to be his companion at any event. That’s why he secretly bought a dress and sent it to her home because he knew she wouldn’t accept it if he gave it to her in person. And now, she agreed to attend a banquet with someone else! Why?

Before Nora could finish speaking, Tanner reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a receipt which fluttered down onto the ground near her feet.

Nora reached out with her hand, but as she was about to pick it up, she hesitated and pulled back, not daring to touch it.
