Chapter 267: Pour Me a Drink

The man turned around and said his final words before preparing to leave. In that moment, the beautiful crimson sunset shone on his sharp and cold features, reflecting in his deep-set eyes with stunning brilliance.

Cheyenne felt a sudden sense of emptiness as she watched him walk away, the morning breeze lifting the corner of his white shirt as it passed by him. He reminded her of the young boy who had once stood in the wind, occupying her entire youth memory.

There were many extinguished cigarette butts scattered around his shiny black leather shoes – at least seven or eight from what could be seen at first glance.
