An hour had only passed after Ian’s proposal. Except for the two, this was only known by the customers who were eating in the restaurant.

Besides, he had yet to announce his engagement with Leah to the public. He didn’t think that the news could spread quickly to the point where Sasha, a woman who had disappeared for two years, could get hold of the news within an hour.

Unless… she had been secretly watching him from afar.

The thought of this gave goosebumps to Ian.

It was a wonder how Sasha managed to avoid his search, hiding under his nose in Linkville for two years, while observing him in the meantime.

As Ian was deep in his thoughts, his face turned stern, which was a big contrast from his usual gentleness.

Sasha immediately panicked and walked a few steps forward, trying to get a hold of the hem of Ian’s clothes.

“Ian, I was worried about you! Why do you want to be with her? I was the one who grew up with you!” She said in a panic.

Ian pulled back the hem of his clothes, his face was getting solemn, “Sasha, how did you become who you are now? Just tell me the truth, are you involved in Mr White’s incident?” He inquired.

Sasha’s face turned pale after hearing his question.

“No… I had nothing to do with it… I’m scared too…” She lowered her head and muttered.

Suddenly, she lifted her head up and glared at Ian. Her gaze was filled with hatred and sadness.

“I hate you, Ian! This is all because of you!” She ran off after screaming at Ian.

By the time Ian wanted to stop her, Sasha had already run out of sight.

He pressed his eyebrows together and decided not to chase after her. If Sasha was able to appear before him, it meant she was in Linkville and that he could find her next time.

……

When Leah got home, she took a bath and went to bed exhausted.

She recalled Ian’s proposal as she closed her eyes. She looked at the ring on her finger and had mixed feelings about it.
