Hansel didn't linger after he was done talking. With a tired expression, he turned and headed upstairs. "The driver is outside. He'll take you back to campus."Willow stood frozen in place as she watched him walk away. She didn't know how long she stood there before finally picking up the check on t
Willow had deliberately checked to make sure the trash can was empty when she threw the check away. This meant he would definitely see it sooner or later. She waited endlessly. Soon, two days passed in the blink of an eye. Her phone remained completely silent, and her patience was running thin. A
