Chapter 75: REAL

YIREN

It's late, and everyone has finally retreated to their rooms. Zeng took his dejected girlfriend home, and frankly, I have zero sympathy for her. Learning she used Jun to rake in money and portrayed him as villain just adds fuel to the fire.

Jun heads out to handle some work call, leaving Bear and me to enjoy the sauna's warm embrace to relax our tight muscles. "Enjoying yourself, baby?" I ask, glancing at Bear, who's sprawled out next to me on his back, legs sticking up as he basks in the heat. He lets out a soft, contented bark, practically purring with relaxation.

And honestly? I'm right there with him.

Real.

Jun's words linger in my mind, stirring something I'm not ready to name.

Real.
