Chapter 1929



I looked back when I heard the voice, and the familiar face in front of me gradually came closer. Surprised, we both exclaimed in unison. "Caroline?"

"Madam?"

Jason looked at Caroline, then at me with a smile on his face. "So, Miss Lane is Madam Grant?"

I smiled awkwardly. Caroline walked up to me with the lunch box. She put the box down, then took my hand. "Madam, where did you go last night? I heard you ran away from home early this morning. I was terrified. You didn't take your phone with you, so I couldn't get in touch."

It turned out someone still cared.

My eyes dimmed slightly. Then, facing Caroline, I smiled. "I went to my friend's place. Don't worry, Caroline. Was Nicky the one who said I ran away?"

"Yes, Miss Doyle told me what happened last night. Madam, I'm sure the sir is regretting it very much now. Will you come back with me?" Caroline took me out and went out.

I let go of her hand. Shaking my head, I asked, "Did he ask about me?"
