Upon closer inspection, his clothes were already completely drenched, his hair clinging to his forehead. dripping with water.

Zachary glanced at the umbrella in her hand but did not take it. He looked steadily at Lenora. "Thank you. Nora. I'm happy you came, but I can't accept it."

Under the dim glow of the lamp, he opened his mouth, and a chill dispersed into the air.

Lenora lowered her gaze, taking a step forward she forcefully thrust the umbrella into Zachary's hand.

"Take this!" she commanded. "Get back in the car."

As soon as she loosened her grip, the umbrella fell to the ground.

Lenora's expression shifted as she glanced at the umbrella on the ground, then fixed her gaze on Zachary. "If you don't want it, line! If you wish to get soaked, replace another spot, but not under my apartment. I don't want to be blamed for any trouble you might get into. "Alright, I'll head outside the residential area," he said.

Lenora was rendered speechless.

He turned around and started to walk away in the rain.

In the heavy rain, his silhouette remained upright, only now it carried a touch more of silent solitude.

A surge of anger welled up in Lenora's heart, and without a second thought, she turned to head upstairs.

He didn't even appreciate the fact that she gave him an umbrella.

I'm not going to

car where he wants to go! I don't care!

After taking a few steps, Lenora halted abruptly. She bi her lower lip, turned around, and glared at Zachary's retreating figure. Angrily, she exclaimed, "Zachary, are you out of your mind?"

Zachary halted in his tracks, turning around to gaze at her.

Through the veil of rain, his eyes were calm. "Nora, I'm not sure why you're so convinced, but I just want you to know, I wasn't trying to help Johanne evade responsibility. Even if you don't trust me, you should at least trust the police. Until the investigation results come out, "I didn't sentence you to death. You can leave now." Lenora blinked.

The case had not yet been declared, even though the judge had already prepared the verdict.

The verdict would be officially announced once the investigation results were released and handed over to the prosecutor's office.

"Really? If that's the case, may I go up then?"

Zachary took a few steps back, gazing into her eyes as e responded to her words.

Lenora paused for a moment, realizing that his intention was to enter her home

"No, you can't." Lenora glanced at the umbrella on the ground, "You should head back"

Zachary tugged at the corner of his lips, giving a bitter smile. "Why can't I he questioned. "You were just lying to me, weren't you? In your heart, I'm the least trustworthy person. I know, it's all my fault

broken my word too many times, promises have become cheap.

Upon hearing these words, Lenora felt something was off.

The feeling was always somewhat vague and unclear.

Yet, the sincerity in his gaze as she looked at Zachary was undeniable.

Could it be that she was overthinking?

"It's understandable if you don't trust me. I've put you in a difficult position." Zachary continued. "You should go ahead. I'll head back shortly."

Lenora looked at him skeptically. "Are you sure?"

"Yeah."

Lenora pursed her lips. "You're not lying to me?"

"No."

"So... I'll head back now?"

"Mm-hmm."

After much hesitation, Lenora turned around and repeatedly glanced back as she entered the apartment building.

Watching her silhouette vanish through the door, Zachary closed his eyes, standing still in his place.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps drew closer.

Zachary opened his eyes, only to replace Lenora standing before him once again.

Meeting his puzzled gaze, Lenora calmly picked up the umbrella from the ground. "Do you want it? If not, I'll take it back," she asked impassively. "No need. I'll leave once you're upstairs."

Then I'm taking it away."

Lenora entered the apartment building lobby, carryingan extra umbrella.

Zachary watched her retreating figure, his eyes slightly narrowed and his lips pressed tightly together.

Boom!

The thunder roared loudly, echoing through the sky, accompanied by lightning that tore through the sky 12:44 Thu, Nov 14 G

illuminating the surroundings in an instant.

The rain intensified, falling in a cascade that echoed like the thunderous beat of war drums.

His silhouette became increasingly indistinct amidst the curtain of rain.

Around ten minutes later, Lenora reappeared in Zachary's field of vision.

She stormed up to him, teeth gritted in anger. "Weren't you supposed to go back?"

Zachary was taken aback. "Why have you come down again?"

Lenora looked at him with annoyance, shot him a glare, didn't utter a word, and turned to walk away.

She hadn't gone upstairs earlier, choosing instead to linger in the lobby. She wanted to see if he would leave or not. Sure enough, he had never left.

If she had gone upstairs, would he have had to stand here all night?

Lenora thought, the reason Zachary acted this way was to soften her heart, and indeed, he had succeeded. Zachary was taken aback.

After taking two steps, Lenora suddenly stopped, spun around, and glared at him. "Aren't you coming up?") After she finished speaking, she didn't look at him and continued walking toward the apartment building.

A faint smile played on Zachary's lips as he followed, lifting his feet to match the pace.

Lenora was the first to step into the elevator. She glanced back at Zachary behind her, silently rolling her cycs.

Inside the elevator, he was continually dripping wet, rapidly creating a small puddle.

"Nora, you're willing to give me a chance, aren't you?"

Lenora didn't respond, his brows furrowed. "Soph has already gone to sleep. Once we go inside, make sure to be quiet. Head straight to my room and don't linger in the living room, understand?" "Okay."

Having the opportunity to step inside the house, Zachary was already extremely content.

This was something he had obtained by shedding all his pride.

The elevator came to a halt, and Lenora made her way to the front door. She slipped into her slippers and punched in the passcode.

Zachary watched her as she acted like a thief, and a hint of amusement twinkled in his eyes.

Lenora glanced at Zachary, making a hush gesture. She gently and quietly pulled open the large door, then gestured for Zachary to go in.

Zachary silently entered, heading straight for Lenora's room.

Lenora gently closed the door and quickly returned to her room.

Before she closed her bedroom door, she glanced back and took a sharp intake of breath.

From the main entrance to the doorway of the room, the ground was speckled with scattered puddles. dripping off Zachary's body.

Lenora turned around and shot Zachary a glare. "Take off your clothes. I'm going to mop the floor."

After she finished speaking, she closed the room door and went to the bathroom to get a mop.

Lenora had just finished mopping up the puddle on the floor, efficiently returning the mop to its place when at that moment, the door of the adjacent room opened.

Sophia emerged from her room, clutching a water cup, momentarily taken aback. "Nora, did you mop the floor?"

Lenora nodded, pointing casually. "Yes, I noticed earlier that place was a bit dirty."

Sophia headed toward Lenora's room. "Oh, by the way, could I borrow your makeup remover? I just realized I forgot to bring mine back.

Seeing her hand already on the doorknob, Lenora was taken aback. "Wait!"

Sophia paused, then turned to look at Lenora. "What's wrong? You're reacting as if there's a strange man hidden in the room."

"I just remembered, I think I've run out of makeup remover too. Why don't you use my two-in-one facial cleanser? It's on the washbasin," Lenora casually suggested with a smile. "Sure thing."

Sophia turned her head and headed toward the bathroom.

Lenora, almost imperceptibly, let out a sigh of relief.

She returned the mop to its place, preparing to head back to her room.

Suddenly, Sophia's voice was heard again. "Nora, why are your pants wet?"

Lenora lowered her gaze and sure enough, she noticed her pant leg was dampened by the rain.

"Did you just let your soft heart lead you downstairs?" Sophia arched an eyebrow, giving Lenora a meaningful look. "I'll check if Zachary is still around."

She walked over to the window and peered down.

She couldn't see anything.

"No, it got wet accidentally when I was mopping earlier Lenora quickly thought on her feet. "How could! possibly go soft-hearted?"
