Chapter 592

Yannis asked, “Zinnia, where are you staying now?”

“I’m staying at a hotel for now,” Zinnia replied.

Zinnia had no idea where Yannis was taking her, but she wasn’t the least bit worried that he might harm her. She leaned back comfortably, her gaze drifting to the passing scenery outside the window.

“For now?” Yannis echoed.

Zinnia nodded and explained, “Yeah, I bought a place, but it’s still being renovated. Can’t move in for a couple more days.”

Yannis asked, “Where did you buy your new place?”

“Cloud Harbor,” Zinnia replied.

Yannis‘ grip on the steering wheel faltered slightly. He asked, “What made you choose Cloud Harbor?”

Zinnia absentmindedly tapped the cartoon bear plush hanging in front of her and said, “When the real estate agent showed me around Cloud Harbor, I just felt so at home there that I bought a place. What’s up?”

Yannis replied, “I live in Cloud Harbor. Which building are you in? Since we’re neighbors, Zinnia, if you ever need anything, just let me know.”

Zinnia’s words sent a wave of emotion through Yannis’s chest. He thought, ‘She said she felt so at home in Cloud Harbor. Could it be that, deep down, Zinnia still has a soft spot for Cloud Harbor, the place we once called home?‘

Zinnia’s eyes widened in surprise. She exclaimed, “Really? What are the odds?”

Yannis’s eyes sparkled with a smile. He said, “I live on the 18th floor of Building A. Which building are you in, Zinnia?”


“Building B, 19th floor,” Zinnia replied. Then she recalled the beautiful swing outside the 18th–floor balcony she saw. She said, “Looks like our apartments face each other. I saw a lovely swing outside your balcony.”

Yannis said gently, “That swing is yours.”

Zinnia’s eyes widened. She asked, “Mine?”
