Chapter 169: Why does it feel like you're tempting me to commit a crime?

While at Cedarwood, Sam and Aurora exchanged phone numbers. 

It was then that Sam unexpectedly learned Aurora's father was originally from Cedarwood. 

It was also during this time that Sam became aware of the situation between Aurora and Mia.

Speaking of which, Sam, who had recently taken a part-time job at a convenience store, noticed that Mia had stopped mentioning Aurora, continuing to avoid discussing her family matters as before.

After the somewhat flirtatious incident at the bar that night, it seemed as if nothing had changed between them; they continued to interact as usual. 

This was why Sam preferred dealing with mature women. They tended to be more emotionally stable, not rushing to escalate relationships over minor issues, allowing him to keep pace... 

And yes, he was referring to Angel!

After pondering for a moment, Sam answered the call.

The bus hadn't arrived yet, and he had nothing else to do.
