Chapter 498: The Past is Gone

His heart kept wavering on the decision of whether to go back and see his father, so engrossed that he didn’t even notice when Cheyenne stood behind him.

A slight chill on his shoulder made him reflexively turn around, and before him was a slender and fair face. Cheyenne was wearing a blue casual outfit, standing behind him. “It’s so late, why aren’t you resting?”

A natural concern reflected in his eyes, and his voice involuntarily softened.

He could tell that old Mr. Edwards’ disappearance had greatly impacted Cheyenne. She hadn’t been eating since yesterday and seemed down.

She had locked herself in her room during the day, only appearing now, which surprised Iker.

Letting out a soft sigh, Cheyenne walked to his side, placing her hands on the balcony railing like he did, looking at the incessant rain outside through the transparent French window.

The garden’s streetlights cast a dim, yellowish glow, illuminating the continuously falling raindrops.

Her cool voice suddenly sounded in his ear, “Master Iker, you are very worried about Mr. Toddt, aren’t you?”

Iker stubbornly but tenderly denied, “No, I am not his only son. Why should I worry about him?”

As he spoke, he dared not meet Cheyenne’s eyes, instead letting his gaze wander to the railing.

His bronze hands rubbed the metal railing, using his palm to feel the coolness, stimulating his tense nerves.

Cheyenne earnestly glanced at him, then furrowed her elegant brows. “Mr. Toddt actually cares about you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have given a villa to you or sought a famous doctor for you.”

That day, when Iker stood up in front of him, the smile on Kai’s face was genuine.

That man was like a thorn in Iker’s heart. Every mention of him caused Iker’s heart to constrict with waves of pain.
