Chapter 216 Where Is That Man?
The soft patter of rain was heard outside. In front of the French windows at the duplex apartment, Elijah was holding a cup of floral tea that Courtney had made for him. “Things have been so hectic lately. I had someone look after Tina for a couple of days. When you have time, I’ll bring her along and treat you to a meal.”
“I always have time.”
The man looked especially gentle with a pair of glasses on while he sat on the gray fabric couch. He had the stability and confidence befitting his age. The way he spoke and carried himself also gave off a sense of security.
“We can’t bring the dead back to life, Elijah. You know I don’t like to worry too much about things that can’t be changed.” Courtney looked weary as she massaged her swollen temples.
She had not slept properly over those two days.
Her father’s passing was questionable. It wasn’t that she did not have any suspicions of her own, but given her identity, it was not appropriate for her to dig any further. Otherwise, it would be hard to avoid criticism from people who would claim that she was only trying to find trouble because she was unsatisfied with her father’s unfair division of property. Personally, she did not mind the criticism, but she did not want people to gossip about Tina.
“Technically, you should have the right to half of the Hunter Family’s inheritance.”
“This really isn’t important to me.”
Elijah sighed and had a disheartened expression. “You just can’t be bothered. I’m not forcing you to go all the way with this, but you’re not even thinking about trying to do something.”
“There’s nothing wrong with that. I want to live a more simple life.”
“Are things simple now?” Elijah’s tone sounded profound. “In a big family like the Duncans’, a family feud is never a simple matter.”
Courtney was taken aback. “You know about that?”
“It’s impossible not to know.” His expression was subtle. “You’re in the spotlight of business news headlines in Asia. Nowhere in the news is your relationship with him a secret anymore.”
