After having dinner with Jerome and Xander on a moonlit night, they took me back to the villa. I got out of the car, said goodbye to them, and went to the living room.

What I did not expect was that Theo was actually in the living room.

I ignored him, heading upstairs just after a glance.

His voice abruptly came from behind, freezing me in place. I turned around and met his eyes that were looking over. There was confusion in my voice, and my head was tilted. "Are you talking to me?"

Stepping off the steps, I picked up my feet and turned around, walking to Theo. I chose to sit face-to-face with him to communicate better.

Looking up, I stared at him. "So, what do you want to talk about?"
