The moonlight was sparse, and when they got out of the car, the cool air blew away their exhaustion.

Zac helped her carry her luggage to her room.

When she went downstairs, she caught a glimpse of Anika sitting on the sofa and looked at her with his calm eyes.

"What's the matter?"

"When did you come back?"

He walked over to her and sat down.

"Half a day before you went back,” he said.

Anika paused for a moment and whispered, "You haven't contacted me for two days."

Her gentle voice carried a faint hint of complaint.

Zac noticed her depressed mood and pursed his lower lip, lightly kissing her forehead.

"I'm sorry, I was stuck in doing something on an ad hoc basis.I won't do it again the future” Zac said.

Anika buried her head in his arms and remained silent for a long time before reluctantly letting him go, "Then I'll go take a shower first."

"Okay” Zac replied softly.

He looked at her as she walked upstairs and frowned faintly.

Ever since she saw him, she had been more clingy than usual.

He knew very well that it wasn't just because she missed him.

The living room quieted down.

After a while, the phone rang.

Zac took the phone from the coffee table and pressed it to answer.

"Boss, Mr.Simmons’ flight will arrive at Misty Bridge tomorrow.’’ 

Hearing this, Zac lowered his eyelids and rubbed his eyebrows.

"Yes, I see.You can pick him up at the airport tomorrow.’ 

"Do you still need to notify Mr.Thomson?"

Zac looked at the tightly shut room on the second floor.

After a few seconds of silence, he said, "Not yet."

"Alright, I understand."

After explaining the matter to Frederick, Zac put down his phone and got up on the second floor.

After pushing open the door of the master bedroom, the room was pitch black.

He narrowed his eyebrows for a moment and looked around the room.
