Chapter 1670: Where's the fun in that?

Cassandra remained quiet throughout the ride, eyes fixed on the flashing side road. Her mind repeated Grace's advice to her like a broken record.

Kiara would eventually find out, and it wasn't just a matter of time, but who.

Her reaction might be the same, but wasn't it better for Kiara to know about what Cassandra did from her?

Another deep exhale escaped Cassandra, raising her brows as she finally noticed her surroundings. The lights on the side of the road were now on, while the sky had grown darker. When they left Grace's home, it was still bright.

'Another day...' she thought, only to notice that they were entering a subdivision.

Cassandra furrowed her brows, recognizing the entrance they were entering.

"Skyline Plaza again?" Kiara whispered, turning to Hugo. "Your brother-in-law owns another property in the Skyline Plaza?"

"Is it that big of a deal?" he asked, barely giving her a side-eye.

Kiara scrunched up her nose, unsure if he said that out of pure ignorance or sarcasm. She decided not to answer, leaning back.

"It's not that big," Hugo added after a few seconds. "But it's safe. This area is safe, and it's close. So, if anything happens, reinforcement can arrive in less than a minute."

"Thanks," she expressed quietly. "I owe you big time."

"You should."

Her smile disappeared, but she didn't dispute that. She owed him, and that was the truth. Even if her pride would get the better of her, it was something she couldn't deny. After all, she was probably still begging other people for help if he didn't step in.

With that, silence quickly followed them as they focused on the road. When their vehicle started slowing down, Kiara blinked, watching the gates open to the wide parking space of a modern three-story home.
