Lila froze briefly, confirming it was indeed Terry sitting alone.

Seeing his awkward gaze, Lila instinctively sensed something was off, though she wasn't sure what.

Despite that, she approached him.

"Your injury hasn't healed yet. How did you manage to come out?"

It had only been a week since his surgery, and his wound hadn't fully healed. Drinking alone like this seemed reckless.

Her question seemed to hit a raw nerve. To her shock, Terry's eyes started welling up.
