Chapter 165
In the cold wind, I wore a heavy coat but still felt cold. That chill didn’t just come from the wind and snow, but seemed to spread outward from deep within my heart.
Dane had been carefully watching the surveillance cameras around us, driving cautiously and stopping at the closest position to me.
When I approached, he got out of the car and opened the door for me.
“Thank you,” I said softly.
Dane returned to the driver’s seat and quickly turned on the heater. The temperature in the car rose, but the coldness in my body wasn’t so easy to dispel.
Since Dane came to my side, most of the time, he had been silently protecting me. He knew better than I did that I was afraid of the cold.
“Where are we going now?” he asked.
I leaned back in the seat, thought for a moment, and said: “Let’s go back to the villa.”
I had left Vargan Manor, and Ferris would soon find out, probably coming to confront me again. But I no longer cared.
“Alright.”
Dane didn’t ask more questions and chose a scenic route back.
I looked at the retreating scenery outside the window and suddenly remembered something: “When you rushed home last time, was there something wrong at home?”
Dane’s grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly, his tone calm but low: “My fiancée broke off our engagement.”
I was stunned, somewhat surprised.
Dane had always been a man of few words, meticulous in his work, and rarely talked about personal matters. This was the first time I heard he had a fiancée.
“Was it because of your work?” I asked somewhat embarrassedly.
He was almost always on call, and whenever I was in danger, he would definitely appear. Such a responsible and reliable bodyguard would indeed find it difficult to have a complete private life.
Dane was silent for a moment before saying quietly: “She fell in love with someone else.”

Chapter 165
That one sentence plunged the car into brief silence.
I didn’t know how to comfort him for a moment: “I’m sorry, didn’t know…”
Before I could finish speaking, my phone rang in my pocket.
Looking at the caller ID, it was Ferris.
Thinking of the arrogant faces of the servants in his house, and then of his coldness today, I didn’t answer and put my phone on silent.
Dane glanced at me through the rearview mirror: “Do you want to go back?”
I shook my head lightly: “No need, let’s continue back to the villa.”
I didn’t want to keep wronging myself anymore.
“I was upset and wanted to ask you to judge the situation, but then she left…”
