After booking her air ticket, Susan went back to her apartment to pack her luggage. She was in the hall, getting ready to leave for the airport when someone suddenly opened the door to her apartment.

"Ian! Why are you back?" she exclaimed in surprise, looking at the young man standing in her doorway, panting breathlessly.

He was supposed to be having his meal at Lady Adalyn's restaurant, so she did not expect him to turn up so unexpectedly.

Susan was standing in the middle of the hall, and she had her luggage next to her. Ian's eyes were fixed on the luggage while he silently stood in front of her.

She could sense a weird vibe coming off him as he questioned, "Where are you going?"

"1-1 have to head home to attend to something," she hesitantly replied. She did not dare look him in the eyes as she was worried he would ask about the purpose of her trip home.

Unfortunately, that made Ian even more suspicious and mad.

"Is that so? Are you not moving to one of those prestigious schools that the kids from the prominent families are attending?" he asked angrily.

"Huh?" Susan looked up puzzledly.

Prominent families? What prominent families? And what is that about a prestigious school?

She had no idea what he was talking about, but being the smart and sensitive girl that she was, she could tell that he was furious. "I am really going home, Ian," she assured him.
