Viola Thompson had pushed things to the extreme this time.
Doing so would only make him hate her more and more.
...
Viola first went to a clothing store to buy a new outfit and then headed to the medicine market.
An hour later, she had bought all the needed medicinal herbs and returned to the apartment.
As soon as she pressed the doorbell, the door opened.
Mantou, the cat, was the one who opened the door.
"Mantou." Viola reached out to pet its little head.
"Meow!"
Mantou seemed happy to see Viola after being apart for a day.
The aroma of food wafted through the air, whetting her appetite.
Viola held Mantou and followed the smell of food to the kitchen, where she saw a man busily cooking.
It was Terrence Lentz preparing dinner.
Coming home from school and seeing someone busy cooking was an ordinary scene in daily life.
But this kind of atmosphere was something Viola had only experienced in her dreams.
In her dreams, the person cooking was her father.
