Chapter 67 Setting the Trap

“Maybe she thinks that this place isn’t as comfortable as the Stewart Residence. My dad and I have to work during the day, and she’s all alone in the villa. It’s empty, and she doesn’t have anyone to talk to. Maybe she found it boring, so she went back on her own accord,” Willow said.

Although Willow was lying, she said it convincingly, her expression and heart rate staying the same the whole time. Hence, Caspian didn’t question what Willow said.

“What is it like working at Southlake Corporation?” Caspian asked.

“After the incident, I took a long leave of absence,” Willow said with a sigh. “It’s better now. Now that you’re back, my life can get back on track. Has the organization assigned you any work?”

“Not yet. I just took a leave of absence to come back for a while. If anything comes up, I will need to leave,” Caspian replied,I while stroking Willow’s hair indulgently..

“Why do you have to go back?” Willow asked, a little confused.

“Diatoran needs me,” Caspian said, grinning.

“Yeah, go on; keep bragging. You’re a soldier involved in Diatoran’s national affairs, right?” Willow scolded him, rolling her eyes. She didn’t believe him at all. 1

Caspian was a little frustrated, but he didn’t explain further. He was Lord Caspian, who bore a high status and commanded a powerful army. If he told Willow his identity, she probably wouldn’t believe him.

“Don’t worry about Mom. I’ll handle it. I’m afraid you’ll do something silly and impulsive,” Willow said.

“You’ll handle it? Okay, tell me, how do you plan to handle it?” Caspian asked, doubtful.

“I have my ways; you don’t need to know,” Willow replied.
