He probably wouldn’t care where I went but he did scold me a couple of times for getting home late into the night. Sooner or later, I’d have to tell him that I won’t be riding back with him. Sooner better than later, I guess. I might as well tell him now.
“You don’t have to wait for me after work today. I’ll go back to the mansion by myself,” I said.
Reiner glanced over at me for a split of a second before his eyes returned to the road ahead.
“I see…” he replied curtly.
After a few seconds of silence, I was sure that Reiner wouldn’t say anything more on the topic and that surprised me a little. I had thought that he would ask me about where I was going to go after work or how I was going to get back. Apparently, that didn’t bother him, and he clearly thought that it wasn’t his business. He’s not wrong about it not being his business but I still found it surprising for him not to care at all.
