She hung up on him again and had the driver stop at a coffee shop she often went to.
Walked in.
When Jovana was ordering coffee, she suddenly saw a bunny keychain on the shelf behind the counter-
It was a lot like the one she lost.

She stared at it for a few seconds and made sure that was hers, because it was the only one her mom made, she couldn’t possibly be
wrong.
After she asked Harland last time, she thought she’d never find it again…
“Hello, can I ask, that bunny keychain is…” Jovana looked at the waiter and couldn’t help asking.
The waiter followed her gaze and smiled, saying, “Oh, that pendant? No idea who left it here. Someone found it and turned it in to the front desk.”
Jovana held back her excitement, thinking she must have left it here some time when she was having coffee.
That bunny keychain was mine…”
Afraid the waitress wouldn’t believe her, she took out her phone and showed her a photo, “This keychain was from my mom, it neant a lot to me. I lost it a while ago and thought I’d never find it again…”
The waiter suddenly understood, walked over and took the pendant down for her, smiled, and said, “Now it’s back to its owner.”
Jovana took it, rubbed the rabbit’s ear with her fingertip, and since she was close, she could faintly smell a fresh scent.
Seemed kind of familiar.
But she couldn’t remember it right away.
Does that person come here often for coffee?” she asked.
The waiter knew she was talking about the person who found her bunny keychain, thought for a moment, and said, “Not really
often…”
ovana thought for a moment and asked, “Could you do me a favor-”
At this moment, outside the café.
Harland looked quietly at Jovana, who was sitting in the corner of the café, through a pane of glass. There was a deep restraint in his dark eyes-
When I saw the joy on her face as she got the bunny keychain back, I couldn’t help but zone out.
It felt like she was supposed to be this bright and sunny, not all sad and gloomy.
During the time I was around her, it seemed like she was always forcing a smile?
Harland frowned and quickly cut off his thoughts.
“Where did you get the right?” Armando’s words hit him like a hammer, leaving him totally lost.
Yeah, where did he get the right.
She was married, he was just an outsider.
Harland pulled at his lips, and when he looked out the window again, his eyes were already back to their usual calm and
self-control.

After a while, Rhett came back.
He opened the driver’s seat, turned and handed what he had to Harland, “Mr. Frasier, here’s the coffee
Harland replied coolly, took the coffee and sipped it. The sweet taste in his mouth made him frown.
He was always super picky about coffee, and his taste was hard to please.
Rhett had followed him for seven years, and he never messed up little things like this.
He glanced at Rhett with some dissatisfaction, “What kind of coffee did you buy?”
Rhett noticed Harland’s displeasure, his back stiffened, and he said, “It should be Geisha.”
Geisha, he never drank this kind of sweet-flavored coffee.
wanted.”
Harland looked cold, put down his coffee, and snorted, “Looks like lately you not only worked less efficiently, but also couldn’t handle trivial things well.”
Rhett’s heart skipped a beat, and he broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
Harland’s pressure, sometimes just one sentence or a look, wasn’t something most people could handle.
He quickly said, “Mr. Frasier, the coffee was ordered by Ms. Atherton. The receptionist said Ms. Atherton wanted to thank the person who found her pendant, so if they come to the café again, coffee is on her.”
Harland froze for a moment, and his deep eyes looked even darker than the endless night.

Rhett was really nervous. He hadn’t thought that much at the time, and now he totally regretted it.”If you don’t like it, I’ll get you nother one right away!”
As he spoke, he turned sideways, hurrying to grab that cup of Geisha, afraid that even a second’s delay would annoy Harland, but a lender hand picked it up before he could.
No need.”
Harland spoke softly, his fingertip tracing the rim of the coffee cup.
Rhett froze for a second, gave Harland a baffled look, and when he realized why, he was at a loss for words.
Such a double standard!
