She walked over to the door of the guest room and knocked on it. She wanted to ask Sean if he wanted to eat breakfast. There was no answer, so she pushed the door open.
The room was so tidy that no one seemed to have slept there. There was no one in the bathroom either.
It was very early in the morning. Angeline wondered if Sean had gone to work yet.
Angeline pulled her dressing gown tighter around her. She pulled out her phone and hesitated. As she wondered if she should call Sean to ask, she received a message from him.
"I won't be coming over for the next few days. I'll pick you up on the day of Mr. Lawson Senior's birthday party."
Angeline returned to the living room and sat down on the sofa. She stared into the distance as she clutched her phone tightly.
The truth was that she had sensed something strange about Sean since the previous night.
She was sure Sean had wavered at the restaurant yesterday, but he had stopped at the last moment. There was no forceful invasion of her space like there had been in the two days before when he had shown his intense desire for her.
She had distinctly felt his insane possessiveness toward her in the past. She wondered if he was acting coldly toward her on purpose now.
She pondered the reason for his behavior.
Was it because he had seen the information on Nathaniel?
Was he angry and jealous of Simon's jacket?
Or was he simply sick of it all?
She only returned to her senses when she heard the rain pounding on the windows.
She got up and walked over to the floor-to-ceiling windows as she watched the rain pour down on Krontos.
She didn't know when she had started caring about Sean.
Perhaps it was because Sean always seemed so calm that he was almost heartless, but in private, he always made her feel how extreme and passionate his love was. His sudden withdrawal from her made her feel confused and disoriented.
Angeline had no experience in love except with Ned. She was like a blank piece of paper in this regard.
