Sherman sounded impatient, and Rita could not help but feel like he was mocking her.

She did not dare to speak anymore.

She would just chalk her earlier thoughts down as her delusions and refrained from asking Sherman the question she really wanted to ask him.

"Do you have any other questions?" Sherman knew she still had other doubts when he noted her hesitance, but he did not expect her to shake her head.

"You must be tired. Letbuy you a bottle of water," said Rita.

Sherman did not understand why she looked so upset.

'Shouldn't she be happy to hear that there's nothing going on betweenand Claire? Just what the heck is this woman thinking?' Rita felt sad, especially about her own family.

It was not like she could cut them off from her life, but at the stime, she did not have the right to openly express her feelings for Sherman.

She longed to return to the past when they were not bound by so many interests.

Back then, she would have asked without hesitation.

She was no longer the straightforward reporter she used to be, nor did she have that kind of confidence.

Rita sat outside alone for a long tbefore finally buying a bottle of water and returning.

On her way back, she happened to meet Sherman.

He only returned to his seat when he saw her coming back.

"What took you so long? Where did you go to buy the bottle?" Rita explained, Oh, I saw a patch of grass over there, so I sat there for a while. I'm sorry." Even her smile seemed ingratiating.

Sherman furrowed his brow even more tightly.

He did not understand what happened to make her so cautious after just going out for a bit.

He admitted there was an element of spite when he initially agreed to marry her.

He wanted her to see clearly what their relationship was and also wanted to punish her.

However, it was only after Claire reminded him that he realized he had feelings for Rita.

Nonetheless, those feelings had not fully developed.

They were just a hint of fondness, surpassing friendship but not quite reaching the level of romantic love. "Sherman, maybe I should go back for now.

Miss Claire probably won't want to seehere when she comes out.

Besides, I still have other things to attend to at work." Seeing Rita's eager-to-escape demeanor made Sherman even more irritated.

"I forget that you're a busy woman. You can leave now if you don't want to stay. Don't need to make it seem like I'm forcing you to stay." When Sherman said this, Rita's intention to leave weakened.

She did not want him to see her as someone irresponsible.

After all, the whole incident started because of her.

Regardless of Claire's misunderstanding, she needed tom explain things properly to her and assure her that she was not a homewrecker. "Didn't you say you wanted to leave? Why haven't you gone yet?" Rita smiled at him.

When I think back about it, I realized I didn't have any urgent work.

Besides, my colleagues can cover for me.

Also, won't you feel bored waitinghere alone? At least withhere, we can talk." Sherman turned his head away before smiling slightly.

Only Rita would cup with such a clumsy excuse just to keep him m company. She could have just said she wanted to stay with him.
