He Cheated, So I Drank the Love Potion Myself Chapter 06

Outside the window, the world was still cloaked in darkness.

The cabin lights were dimmed, and most of the passengers were asleep.

I wasn’t sleepy at all. I just stared blankly into the night.

After one layover, the plane finally landed in Fairbanks.

The moment I stepped outside, a blast of cold, dry air hit my face.

After leaving the airport, my friend and I went straight to a diner for a bowl of hot soup.

Warmth slowly seeped back into my body.

She couldn’t help but stare at me.

“I really thought you weren’t going to come this time.”

“Every time I called you before, you’d say you had to stay home and watch your husband so no other woman could get near him.”

I finished the last sip of soup and let out a satisfied breath.

“What man is more important than my work?”

My friend’s eyes went wide.

She looked me up and down.

“That’s a hell of a thing to hear from you. It’s like you’re a completely different person overnight.”

I offered a small, wry smile but didn’t explain.

Because even I found that sentence a little unfamiliar.

Out of habit, I took out my phone and unlocked it.

The screen lit up. My iMessage thread with Reed was still open, the last message sent yesterday afternoon.

What I had sent him was:

“Sweetheart, you have to come home for our sixth anniversary. I prepared a surprise and made your favorites.”
