152 Realizations and Jealousy

However, the touch that she anticipated didn't arrive. She frowned and turned towards his phone that vibrated against the table a few feet away from them. Frowning, Lyca turned towards Shen Qui who was deliberating if he would answer it or not. Her face immediately turned ugly as the realization hit her.

This was not three years ago. He was no longer the Shen Qui that she adored. He was a fully grown-up man with a business to handle while she… she was different.

Lyca pursed her lips and hid the irritation in her eyes before she suddenly walked towards the phone and handed it to him. Then, she stared at him. "Call me once the car is ready." Without any hesitation, Lyca turned her back away from him. 

This was not her trying to throw another tantrum. This was her trying to understand that Shen Qui had a life other than her. His world… no longer revolves around her anymore. And just like him… she should have a life too.
