Wilfred did not hide anything, revealing it all plainly.Miranda was shocked. “Why would you do this? Do you realize how much this affects me? I asked you to take care of Nina, thinking her death could save us. But instead, you pushed me into the fire. Why did you do this?”The bread in Wilfred’s hand had been eaten by the pigeons. He brushed the crumbs off his coat. “There was no transaction between us. You didn’t pay me, and I didn’t ask for your money. Nina paid me for your information.

How you live it is another. We each have our own paths. I won’t hinder yours, and you shouldn’t hinder mine. I’ve done everything you asked me to help with!”Miranda calmed down. Yelling would not change what had happened. She glanced at his hands. “You’re not wearing your beads today? You always used to.””I was feeding pigeons and didn’t want them to get dirty.”In that moment, Miranda realized how little she truly knew about Wilfred, despite their long association and collaboration. She furrowed her brows and said seriously, “She will never be your Ivy. Stop deluding yourself.”Wilfred just smiled without responding.”Your voice is really beautiful. From now on, I’ll call you Ivy.””Why is it so dark here?””This is a dark room, of course it’s dark.””Are you scared?””Yes. What about you?””I’m scared too.””Thenon
