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.

“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..

“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.
