A Miracle Fault

"What's this?" While holding the file, Emmeline bent down out of curiosity and was about to pick up the piece of paper.

But before her hand could touch the paper, Stefan, who was sitting in the wheelchair, was a step ahead of her and picked it up right away.

It was just that when Stefan's gaze reached the piece of paper, his expression did not look quite the same.

Almost subconsciously, he turned the paper over with the back facing up. Then he said coldly, "Nothing. Just something from before. It's late. You are probably tired. Why don't you head back and rest? I still have some work to do."

Compared to a moment ago when Stefan was gentle, no matter how slow Emmeline was, she could feel that he was different.

Emmeline's mood immediately dropped because of Stefan's sudden change.

After listening to Stefan's words, she smiled disappointedly and then said, "Okay, then I'll head back."

He was the one who asked her to accompany him as he worked. Now he was the one who drove her away because there was something he did not want her to see.

It was too bad that she saw what was on that piece of paper.

What a beautiful girl. They must have shared a special relationship for Stefan to hide her portrait on the bookshelf.

She knew it: how could Stefan like her? No matter who he liked, he would not like her.

"Emmeline..." Stefan would actually say suddenly and ask Emmeline to come back. But it was true that there was a part of him that he did not want Emmeline to see.

But he lost his temper for a while and went back on his word, making Emmeline leave.

When Emmeline also agreed to leave and he saw her lonely back, he suddenly felt that he might have crossed the line.
