Chapter 355 We were only a few feet apart, but it felt like an uncrossable chasm between us.

That was when I realized Edith had made the right move. She hadn't inflicted any physical harm or me-she'd damaged the Kenways' opinion of me.

Maybe Lisbeth now sawas more trouble than I was worth.

Soren waved and beckonedto the car after his call.

I stayed put. "Go hsoon, Soren. I'll take an Uber." Sendinghand then back to the Kenway residence would take two hours, but Lisbeth might still be waiting for him at home.

Soren's expression darkened slightly. "I'm not in a hurry. I'll send you home." "I'm really fine," I insisted again, nudging him toward the car. "Go." His displeasure deepened. This time, he simply pickedup and putin the car, whether I wanted it or not. Halfway into our journey, his phone rang.

I glanced at the screen-it was his grandfather.

Shit. Even his grandfather knew now.

"Hello? Yes. I'm on my way. Half an hour, minimum. Yeah, I'll do my best to be hsoon. I'm fine, Grandpa. Relax and rest. I'll see you tomorrow morning. Right, I will."

I tapped the headset again as Soren remained silent. With no objection from him, the driver pulled over.

I got out of the car just as Soren did from the other side.

"Taylor!" he called out.

I turned.

I could feel the longing for a man like him, but I realized I had been nothing but trouble for him.

I watched him approach and forced a smile. A sudden impulse surged throughand I started, "Soren, maybe maybe we

"I'll cto your place early tomorrow morning, Please don't make any more excuses," he interrupted. "But after what happened tonight, do you really-" "It wasn't your fault. And what does that have to do with your visit to the Kenway residence tomorrow?" Well, it had everything to do with it!

But I supposed I had to show up in I person to apologize to Lisbeth fon dragging her children into all this. If I didn't, I'd be the one lacking sincerity and self-awareness.
