    rk looked at N sincerely. “N, we missed out on a lot because I was so busy before. From now on, I’ll make sure to give you all the special moments you deserve.


    His gaze was filled with the same love and tenderness as when they were first in love.


    N’s heart ached, and she turned away, holding back her tears.


    If he had said this before he cheated, she might have been moved, but it only felt bitter now. From the moment he cheated, there was no going back.


    Seeing N’s silence, rk reached out to hold her hand, but she pulled away. Disappointment shed in his eyes, but he quickly regained hisposure.


    “N, we’ll take it slow until the day you can forgive me.”


    N looked at him. “We’ll see.”


    She knew that day would nevere.


    During dinner, rk tried to make conversation, but N’s responses were indifferent. Noticing herck of interest, he felt a pang of sadness but knew he had no right to expect her to treat him as she used to.

    “Sure. Don’t overwork yourself.”


    “Got it.”


    After getting out of the car, N walked toward the building.


    rk kept his car parked by the roadside, hoping she would look back. She didn’t, even as her figure disappeared from sight.


    rk remembered their university days when they were dating. He would walk N to her dorm every night, and they would linger downstairs, reluctant to part until it was close to curfew. After they got married, N used to get up early every morning to make him breakfast and see him off to work. He wondered when those warm scenes would return.


    However, she was giving him a chance now, and he believed they would eventually reconcile.
