The car window slowly rolled down, revealing Lucas’s cold, chiseled face.

Sloane looked at him in surprise. “Lucas? What are you doing here?”

Lucas stepped out of the car and walked up to her. Even with Sloane standing on the steps, he was still taller than her.

“I came to pick you up.”

Sloane froze for a second, then nodded. “Oh. I’ll go get my luggage.”

Lucas was caught off guard by how readily she agreed. He had prepared a whole list of reasons -like “it’s not safe to stay in the dorm alone” or “campus will be empty over the holiday and it’ll be inconvenient.” He’d even been ready to bring up the medicinal herb cultivation if she refused.

But to his surprise, Sloane hadn’t even asked a question and agreed right away.

He stood dazed at the door until she returned, pulling her suitcase. Lucas quickly stepped forward to take it from her.

As soon as they stepped out of the car, the butler and Molly came hurrying out to greet them.

“Ms. Rivers, your room is ready. It’s been arranged just the way you like it. If there’s anything you’re not satisfied with, just let us know and we’ll change it right away.” The butler had already received Lucas’s instructions and prepared everything in advance.

Molly had looked after Sloane before, and now that Lucas had brought her home again, she was all smiles. “Ms. Rivers, whatever you feel like eating, just let me know. I’ll make it for you.”

Sloane glanced up at Lucas, then smiled and said, “Okay.”

“Your room is still upstairs on the second floor. I’ve had someone take your luggage up,” Lucas added, motioning to the waiting staff.

A servant took the suitcase and headed upstairs with quick steps.

Lucas and Sloane were talking when suddenly, loud, hurried footsteps echoed from above.
