Chapter 693 Are You Teasing Me

Micah found himself with an opportunity to draw nearer to her. A thought that brought a provocative smile to his lips. With a newfound determination, he spun on his heel and strode towards the villa. Arthur, his loyal attendant, trailed behind him, careful not to overstep his boundaries with unnecessary chatter.

The master suite of the villa was a grand affair, bathed in the soft hues of the evening sun that filtered through the French windows. Micah discarded his suit jacket and loosened his shirt, making his way to the balcony with a highball glass in hand. He settled into an ivory-white lounge chair, his gaze wandering to the neighboring villa.

Before long, the sliding door of the adjacent villa creaked open, revealing a familiar figure. She was barefoot, her long hair cascading freely over her shoulders, her body draped in an elegant silk dress. Her relaxed demeanor was a stark contrast to her usual aloofness, reminding Micah of the simple and innocent Sadie of the past.

"Mr. Clemens, you seem to be in high spirits!" Sadie teased, mirroring his position on an identical lounge chair. She accepted a cocktail from Arya with a graceful lift of her hand.

"Both the beautiful scenery and the beautiful woman are worth appreciating!" Micah retorted, a playful smirk playing on his lips.

"Are you always this flirtatious, Mr. Clemens?" Sadie countered, her smile frosty. "This is quite different from the serious and cold demeanor you're known for!"

"It depends on the person I'm talking to," Micah replied, his gaze unwavering.
