    N looked up at rk and saw the apology in his eyes.


    She nodded and said, “Yes, I’ve thought it over. I’ve been too cold toward you. And between spouses, it’s not just about forgiveness.”


    rk was momentarily stunned, then his eyes filled with joy. “N, are you serious<b>?</b><b>” </b>


    He had expected that N would still be angry and that he would have to spend time cating her. To his surprise, her attitude had changed in just a morning. She was no longer as cold and resistant as before.


    N smiled. “Of course. Although I haven’tpletely forgiven you yet, I realize I shouldn’t continue to hold grudges. I’ll move back to the vi in a couple of days.”


    “Really?”


    Although rk didn’t understand why N had suddenly changed her mind, the important thing was that she was willing toe back to him. Nothing else mattered.


    “Yes, juste and pick me up when the timees,” she replied.


    Alright.”


    Seeing N’s demeanor soften from before, rk hesitated for a moment, then carefully asked, “N… would you have dinner with me tonight? It’s been a long time since we’ve eaten together…”


    N was silent for a few seconds.


    Just when rk thought she was going to refuse, she nodded. “Sure, just send me the location.”


    rk’s face lit up with excitement. “I’lle pick you up.”


    He had a feeling that N would fully forgive him soon.


    “Okay,” she said.


    rk dropped N off at the entrance of her apartment and left.


    As soon as his car was out of sight, her smile turned cold.


    To investigate the Harris Pharmaceuticals incident thoroughly, she needed to stay close to rk. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have the chance to approach Cyrus.


    Taking a deep breath, N turned and walked to her apartment.


    In the evening, rk drove to pick up N.


    When she appeared, he was momentarily taken aback.


    It was clear that N had made an effort to look presentable. Although she wore only a dress and light makeup, she looked very different from when theyst met.


    “Chapter 114


    “N, you look beautiful today,” he praised.


    N seemed to shyly lower her head. Without saying a word, she opened the passenger door and got in


    the car.


    rk reached out to hold her hand, but she pulled away.


    <b>“</b>I’ve only agreed to move back and improve our rtionship. It doesn’t mean I’ve forgiven you, so I’m not ready for any intimate gestures right now. I hope you understand,” she exined.


    rk’s gaze dimmed, but he nodded. “I understand. <b>I’ll </b>wait until you’ve fully forgiven me.”


    There was a hint of sarcasm in N’s downcast eyes. If it turned out that the Harris Pharmaceuticals incident was indeed rted to Cyrus, her hatred for rk would only deepen.


    Forgiving him was impossible.


    Seeing she said nothing else, rk didn’t press further and started the car.


    Half an hourter, they stopped outside a restaurant. As they got out, they ran into Damon and Spencer.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    Damon frowned when he saw N and a trace of coldness shed in his eyes.


    Didn’t the doctor say she needed to stay in the hospital for observation? Why was she out and about now -and with rk?


    Noticing Damon’s gaze on N, rk stepped in front of her to block the view and said in a low voice,” What a coincidence, Uncle Damon. Are <i>you </i>here for dinner too?”


    Damon looked at him, his gaze devoid of warmth.
