Upon hearing the busy tone on the phone, Sadie was very angry. Micah didn''t care how far away she was; he ordered her to be there within 30 minutes. Micah was really unreasonable.


    Receiving a text message on her phone, Sadie opened the address search navigation. Even if she took a taxi immediately, it would still take forty minutes. If she dyed any longer, Micah would have to wait too long. Micah''s cold eyes shed in her mind, making Sadie shiver. She immediately used her phone''s ride-hailing app.


    Putting down her phone, she looked at her father''s belongings, feeling very conflicted.


    After careful consideration, she took out her bank card and the ck card from her wallet and put them back in the silver envelope.


    Then she packed her father''s letter back into the box in its original state, locked the box again, and ced it back in the storage unit.


    Carefully closing the storage unit, Sadie checked it multiple times for any mistakes before hurriedly leaving.


    Sadie urged the driver repeatedly and arrived at the agreed location in a rush, but she was still eleven minuteste.


    Getting out of the taxi, Dahlia immediately came over with an umbre and whispered, "Miss Roth, today is a special day. Micah is not in a good mood, so be careful!" "Oh?" Sadie felt even more uneasy upon hearing this. "What day is it today?"


    "You''ll find outter," Dahlia said softly. "No matter what, don''t make him angry today."


    "Well, I understand." Sadie frowned and walked in quickly.


    Micah sat by the window, quietly gazing at the rainy scene outside.


    "Sorry for beingte." Sadie apologized softly. "I took a taxi as soon as I received the call, but the journey was a bit far, so..."


    Micah turned to look at her, his expression calm.


    "Aren''t you angry?" Sadie asked fearfully.


    "Where did you go?" Micah looked at her intently.


    "To the cemetery," Sadie replied candidly, "to visit my father."


    As long as Micah didn''t know the secret of the heirloom, there was nothing she couldn''t say.


    Upon hearing this, Micah lowered his gaze. Without saying anything, he handed her the menu and gestured for her to order.


    "You can decide," Sadie handed the menu to the restaurant manager waiting nearby, pretending to be rxed. "Why did you suddenly invite me out for dinner today?"


    It seemed to be the first time he had taken her out to dinner as Micah.


    After a moment of silence, Micah suddenly said, "Today is my birthday."


    "Oh?" Sadie was stunned. She had no idea it was his birthday today, and she hadn''t prepared anything.


    "I also went to the cemetery," Micah swirled his highball ss, his gaze deep and his voice low, "to visit my mother."


    The light shone on Micah''s face, dim and mysterious, as if he had something on his mind.


    "Alright," Sadie responded cautiously. She wanted to ask where his mother was buried, but she didn''t dare say much.


    She felt that he was acting a bit strange today, and she was afraid of identally provoking him.


    "How''s the new house? Are you satisfied with it?" Micah changed the subject, looking at her.


    "It''s pretty good." Sadie smiled and nodded. "Thank you!"


    "Have a good weekend, ande back to work on Monday." Micah took a sip of his drink. "Okay." Sadie raised her ss to him. "Happy birthday..."


    "Don''t say that." Micah suddenly interrupted her, frowning with a chilling glint in his eyes.


    Sadie was taken aback. Why was he unhappy? It was his birthday today, and she wished him a happy birthday. Why would he be upset? Seemingly realizing his inappropriate mood, Micah clinked sses with her to lighten the atmosphere, then downed his drink in one go. Sadie also finished her drink, took a deep breath, and sighed, "This drink is strong."
