When her expression became timid, Arthur's temper was gone. He softened his tone as he said, "Are you still hoping to find him? Forget about him. He is long gone."
Veronica panicked. "Then what should I do now? I need to find that person at any cost!"
"Too late," saying that he turned around and began to walk away.
Veronica was in a dilemma. She needed to go after that person and at the same time, she couldn't do anything since she wasn't wearing anything appropriate. When she thought of walking in the street dressed like this, her head hung in shame.
She looked around and realized that she was in an unknown place. Her palms began to sweat. She saw Arthur going further away and quickly followed after him. She inquired, "You said it was a man. How did you know it was a man and not a woman?"
Arthur raised an eyebrow and asked her in return, "When did I say he was a man?"
