Chapter 393

Miranda hesitated for a moment, "Stay at your place? Isn't that a bit inconvenient?"

Sebastian chuckled, "There's nothing inconvenient about it. Whatever you need, I can have it ready for you today. Plus, it makes it easier for you to keep an eye on Susie's condition without having to go back and forth. What do you think?"

Seeing Miranda deep in thought, he asked, with a touch of awkwardness, "Are you worried that Elian Ashcroft might find out?"

"If you're concerned about him knowing, I can give him a call and explain."

His voice was gentle, almost as if he was willing to compromise.

This made Miranda feel a bit guilty.

Sebastian and Elian never really got along.

Having Sebastian call Elian over this matter seemed a bit much.

Miranda was the kind of person who responded better to kindness rather than force.

Besides, what did her curing Susie have to do with Elian anyway?

"Why would you call him?" she frowned.

Sebastian smirked, "So, does that mean you agree?"

Miranda initially felt uneasy about staying at someone else's place, but with Sebastian's insistence, it seemed rude to refuse.

"Alright, I can stay here for a couple of days," she conceded. "But I need my stuff."

Sebastian's eyes twinkled with amusement, "I'll have someone fetch anything important you need. As for other necessities, don't worry, they'll be here soon."

Miranda nodded.

She didn't really have much with her, having already brought her medical kit.

She just needed Sebastian to pick up some herbs.

"That should work," she agreed.
