“Invite us out for a meal?” Phoebe exclaimed, taken aback.
Mila’s expression darkened at this unexpected suggestion, her concern mounting. She swiftly bypassed Keith and hurried into the house, with Keith anxiously attempting to follow.
Phoebe grasped Keith’s arm, a knowing smile playing on her lips. “Keith, what’s happening today? Why are you so jittery?
Keith shook off Phoebe’s hand. “It’s nothing. I should get going.”
Phoebe stepped in front of Keith, blocking his path. “What’s the hurry? Let’s wait for a while.”
Keith glanced nervously inside once more, visibly flustered.

“What exactly are you up to?” Mila demanded, her anger barely contained.

to seriousness.

Mila narrowed her gaze. “Weren’t I what?”
Sally hesitated to speak further.
Mila’s tone dripped with sarcasm. “Oh, did you believe I was being held captive by Oliver?”
Sally forced a smile and picked up her bag from the floor. With a composed facade, she took out her phone and dialed Oliver’s number.
Unable to reach him, she expressed her confusion, “Where could Oliver be?”
Mila remained stoic. “He’s probably dead at his house. But what about you? Why are you
dressed like that and showing up at Sudvilla?”
Sally replied casually, “Sudvilla was originally a marital hthat Nate built for me. I lived here for quite stime, and even the password is my birthday.”

Sally clenched her jaw, restraining herself as she addressed Cole, “I need to speak to him.”
“Mr. Morrison has made it clear he doesn’t want to see you. Allow us to escort you home. Let’s go,” Cole insisted.
Feeling frustrated, Sally turned back to the door and resumed knocking once more. “Nate, it’s me, Sally! We’ve known each other since childhood. Have you forgotten our shared memories? Why are you treatinglike this?”
