He Finally Noticed Me Right When I Was Leaving novel Chapter 170

Then, he handed the medication to the maid, his tone deadly serious. "These are her antidepressants and sleeping pills. Administer them exactly as prescribed by the doctor. There is absolutely no room for error, understood?"

"Understood, Felix."

The maid accepted the pills respectfully and tucked them away with extreme care.

Felix glanced at Seraphina on the sofa. She remained exactly as she had been—hollow and entirely indifferent to her surroundings.

He shook his head in silent resignation, said nothing more, and left the apartment.

The maid picked up the craft kit and walked over to Seraphina. "Mrs. Prescott, Mr. Prescott had Felix buy these crafting beads for you. Would you like to play with them for a bit?"

Seraphina didn't look at her, nor did she react to the gesture. "No," she replied flatly.

Her tone was freezing, devoid of even a sliver of warmth.

Not daring to push the issue, the maid quietly set the box down and retreated to the side, letting out a heavy internal sigh.

Mrs. Prescott's attitude toward her husband was unbearably cold.

A man with Mr. Prescott's status and wealth surely had no shortage of women throwing themselves at him.

If she kept this up, her position as Mrs. Prescott likely wouldn't last much longer.

...

On the day of Elara's birthday, Pierce didn't go to the office.

He walked up to Seraphina and said gently, "It's time to head out."

"I know," she replied without looking at him.

She stood up and walked straight to the door without a second of hesitation.

Watching her retreating figure, Pierce sighed helplessly and hurried to catch up.

They walked out of the apartment together, got into the car, and headed toward her aunt's house.

The interior of the car was dead silent. Not a single word was exchanged.

Seraphina leaned against the window, her eyes closed, radiating a clear aura of wanting absolutely nothing to do with him.

From the driver's seat, Pierce stole glances at her every few seconds, his eyes swimming with helpless resignation.
