Mark did not know how to face Sophie, yet he knew he couldn’t put off meeting her forever. Eventually, the two met at a café near the University of Medicine.

An odd feeling swelled in Mark’s chest when he saw Sophie again after such a long time.

The first words out of his mouth were an apology. “I’m sorry, Sophie.”

It was not the first time he was apologizing.

He did not think a lifetime of apologies could make up for his mistakes.

Sophie scrunched her brows in frustration. Why is he still so stubborn?

She stated firmly, “Didn’t I say this before? I know this incident has nothing to do with you at all. It’s all in the past now. Can we stop bringing it up?”

Getting over the incident was easier said than done for Mark.

She continued, “I only hope you can return to The Wheelers. After all, that’s your favorite place in the whole world.”

“Sophie—” Even now, she still had his best interests at heart.

“Sunny and the others are all waiting for you. Don’t let them down, okay? Of course, if there’s something else you’d like to do, that’s fine too. I won’t force you to return to The Wheelers if that’s the case.”

Sophie was careful to reiterate that he had the freedom to choose his future path and that no one could force him to do anything.

Mark uttered, “I’ll return to the band.”

The farewell concert may have been over, but performing in The Wheelers was still his dream. He would not give up on it now.

“Okay. Let’s go back, then!”

Everyone had hoped Mark would return.

Suddenly, he said, “Thank you, Sophie.”

She smiled and replied, “We’re past such formalities, don’t you think?”
