Chapter 103

But as she watched Autumn’s figure disappear, Zoe couldn’t shake a bad feeling.

It seemed like once she left, she wouldn’t be coming back.

Autumn wheeled her suitcase out.

When she reached the gate, she turned back to look at the house she’d lived in for three years.

Everything in this place had been crafted by her own hands.

She planted every blade of grass and tree.

Every corner of the house held something she carefully arranged.

And now, she was leaving it all behind for good. The weight in her chest felt a little heavy.

Steadying herself, she walked away from the place that had been her home for three years. There was nothing worth clinging to.

It was time to look forward.

She was starting a new life, which meant leaving behind old burdens and embracing what was ahead.

Everything was moving in a better direction.

And that was a good thing.

Keith saw her come out and helped load her luggage into the trunk.

Then he politely opened the car door for her.

Noticing the gloom in her expression, he frowned slightly without making it obvious.

“Your ex-husband made a public display of affection with his mistress right in front of you. What exactly is there to miss?” 1

Autumn got into the car, lips pressed together and didn’t reply.

The truth stung

But it had nothing to do with her anymore.

She wasn’t holding on to Julian-she was still thinking about the questions her professor had gone over with

her.

Still, she didn’t bother explaining. There was no point.

They weren’t that close anyway-why explain so much?

She closed the door.

Keith got into the driver’s seat, but instead of starting the car, he kept staring at her.

The pressure in the cabin grew stifling. Autumn felt like she couldn’t quite breathe.

His gaze made her uncomfortable. She finally looked up and met his eyes, asking in confusion, “What is it?”

Why wasn’t he driving? Why just stare at her like that?

Did he think the car would drive itself if he stared long enough?

Keith’s tall frame suddenly leaned in toward her, and her heart jumped straight into her throat.

Autumn instinctively raised her hands to push him away. “What are you doing?”

He better not try anything.

As he leaned closer, she could clearly hear the powerful rhythm of his heartbeat.

His warm breath brushed against her pale neck, tickling her skin.

This position was way too suggestive.

Her mind went blank.

Eyes wide, she stared at Keith’s face as it moved closer and closer.

Just as she opened her mouth to say something, Keith simply reached past her and pulled the seatbelt across her.

With a soft click, he buckled it.

Autumn was speechless.

So, he was just putting on the seatbelt?

She’d thought he was about to do something.

Turned out she had completely overthought it.

Keith’s sharp eyes glanced sideways at her, and his thin lips parted. “What did you think I was going to do?”

Autumn quickly shook her head and waved her hands.

“Nothing, nothing. It’s late and we both have work tomorrow. Let’s head back and get some rest!”

Realizing she’d misunderstood his action made her want to crawl under a rock.

After all that driving, she actually forgot to buckle up.

How embarrassing.

She just wanted to get to her new place as soon as possible and have a good night’s sleep before another full day

of work.

When the car pulled up outside her building, she hurriedly opened the door and got out.

Without waiting for Keith, she grabbed her luggage and rushed toward the elevator.

Keith stepped out of the car and narrowed his eyes at the girl fleeing like she was being chased.

Was he really that terrifying?

Every time she saw him, she acted like a mouse spotting a cat-completely on edge.
