Muse was standing in front of the window when she heard Rody enter the room. She turned around and looked at him. She slowly said in a cold voice, “Do not speak, listen to me.”

Muse lightly replied, “That is your problem. Your business here is now finished and I have also recovered so…” Muse hesitated for a moment before saying, “So, I will be leaving.”

“Leave?” Rody’s heart jumped. A feeling that was difficult to explain rose in his heart as he asked, “Why do you want to leave?”
