Chapter 1131:

Connor’s eyes narrowed thoughtfully as he weighed his next move. After a moment’s pause, he instructed the butler, “Take him to the pavilion in the garden. I’ll meet him there shortly.”

“Yes, sir!” The butler gave a slight bow and left without delay. Turning to Domenic, Connor added calmly, “Spread the word that I’ll be taking a stroll in the garden and make sure Foley hears of it.”

“Yes, sir,” Domenic replied, disappearing as swiftly as the butler.

Connor remained seated for a while longer, gathering his thoughts and considering the layers of the situation. Once informed that Aelfric had settled into the pavilion, he rose and made his way to the garden. Yet, true to his strategic nature, he didn’t head directly to meet Aelfric. Instead, he chose a meandering route, one that brought him to the lakeside across from the pavilion.

Just as Connor had anticipated, the moment he arrived at the lakeside, Chloe appeared, gliding toward him with practiced grace. She clutched a thermal flask in her hands, a seemingly thoughtful gesture wrapped in layers of intention. Her outfit—a stunning, intricately designed haute couture floral dress—spoke volumes, each petal and thread carefully chosen to dazzle. Her gaze was soft, brimming with adoration, and her smile carried just the right touch of sweetness.
