Chapter 135

Sherilyn paused for a moment before recognition dawned on her face.

“Is that you?”

It was him. The guy she had bumped into a few times at Neon Nights Bar, who had once offered her some pumpkin pies after a casual chat.

Edgar couldn’t hide his delight, his smile broadening.

He had been abroad for a while, working on a project, and had only recently returned to Sunhaven.

Since his return, he hadn’t found the time to visit Neon Nights Bar, so it had been a while since he last saw Sherilyn.

What a pleasant surprise this was!

Edgar extended his hand to Sherilyn, “Haven’t properly introduced myself yet. I’m Edgar Ferguson.”

“Nice to meet you.” Sherilyn smiled, shaking his hand.

“I…” Edgar chuckled a bit shyly, “May I know your name?”

“Of course.”
