"I made her upset. I went behind her back to do something, heard bad news, didn't tell her about the bad news, and just let her find out on her own. She found out I did that and won't talk to me," Liam explained, giving her a short rundown of what had unfolded. He figured she could still help him, even if she didn't know the full story.

Dong Yishan hummed as she listened to him, tapping her chin thoughtfully as she peered at him.

"Well, you definitely messed up. She's never just stormed off like that before," she told him as she leaned forward.

Liam sighed and nodded, shame dawning on him once again.

"Yeah, I know that. I miss her so much," he muttered as he scratched at the back of his neck. When the waitress dropped off his drink, he thanked her before downing half of it, wanting it to take the edge off a little. He had been stewing in his own shame and guilt for far too long now. He needed to do something about it.
