Chapter 171 Only You Were Hidden

Later, the three of them departed. Jason took Alta back home first.

When they arrived at the entrance of Spring Villa, Jason noticed that Alta didn’t invite Donovan in. He deliberately asked, “It’s the first time. Donovan has come. Shouldn’t you invite him in for a cup of tea at your place?”

After hearing this, Donovan became curious and looked over.

Alta didn’t expect Jason to suddenly come up with such a remark. She immediately froze and cursed in her heart, “You talk too much!”

However, she pretended to remain calm and said. “It’s late and

Donovan must be tired today, so I don’t invite him. Besides, there’s nothing to entertain him with at home. I think I’d wait until Cindy and Donovan come over.”

Donovan looked unconcerned.

He spoke. “You are too polite. We’re family, no need to be so formal. But…”

He pondered for a moment. Then, he changed the subject, “It is indeed late tonight, next time you can invite me again.”

Alta breathed a sigh of relief and smiled obediently. She replied, “Okay, next time I’ll prepare tea to entertain you, Donovan.”

Jason noticed every subtle expression on her face. He became convinced that this woman was hiding something!

He narrowed his eyes and looked at her. With a somewhat scrutinizing

expression, he exposed her by asking, “Why are you so nervous?”

Jason unexpectedly kept pressing on.

Alta hesitated for a moment and put on a puzzled look. She replied, “What do you mean?”

In her heart, she was quite anxious.

Jason looked at the villa behind her and guessed, “Is there someone hidden at home? That’s why you’re acting so strange?”

Alta didn’t expect him to be so perceptive. She thought to herself, “Yes, there is indeed someone hidden, someone you can’t see!”

But she remained composed and said casually, “I’m perfectly fine. There is only the housekeeper, Daisy, at home. As for someone being hidden…”

Alta nonchalantly added, “I’m not like you. I don’t have the hobby of keeping a mistress in a golden love nest!”
