Gia Miller nodded, her voice choked with emotion. "Thank you, Cassian."
"Gia, now that you’re out, just focus on living a good life. You can always start over."
"Mm, I know."
Cassian Jennings walked to the door and picked up his coat. "Gia, the kitchen is fully stocked with ingredients. If you get hungry, make yourself something to eat. If you don’t feel like cooking, there’s money in the bedroom drawer. You can go out and buy something. I have some things to take care of at the office, so I can’t stay here with you."
"Okay, Cassian. Don’t worry, I’ll be fine by myself."
Cassian Jennings put on his coat, opened the door, and left.
Watching Cassian leave, Gia Miller lowered her head and took two sips of her congee, her expression a mixture of loneliness and complexity...
After leaving the apartment, Cassian Jennings didn’t go to his office. Instead, he went to look for Amelia Avery at the bars.
He had already searched Vespera and Elysian, but she was nowhere to be found. Finally, left with no other choice, he could only go check Siren.
「Siren’s Night」
Leo Joyce hadn’t left Siren since he and Tiana returned from the Joyce family’s estate.
But after spending two days with this woman, his mood had improved considerably.
He had his arm around Tiana, watching the others in the room play cards. His hands were itching to join in...
But the woman in his arms wouldn’t let him play.
This was his punishment for avoiding her for over a month.
Feeling wronged, Leo Joyce poked Tiana and whispered in her ear, "Tiana, I swear, just one hand!"
Tiana looked up and refused coldly, "No! I already told you not to come to Siren. I knew you’d get an itch to play if you came here."
"But playing cards is one of the indispensable joys of my life."
"So you’re saying playing cards is more important than me, is that right?"
"Of course you’re more important."
"If I’m more important, then you have to listen to me. Besides, I’m still mad."
Hearing Tiana’s words, Leo Joyce was on the verge of tears. "My little princess, it’s been two days. Shouldn’t you have cooled down by now?"
Tiana snorted coldly. Just as she was about to speak, a man’s voice came from outside, and then the door was kicked open.
"Master Jennings, Young Master Joyce gave orders! No one is allowed in without his permission."
After storming in, Cassian Jennings scanned the room. When a quick look revealed no sign of Amelia Avery, he strode over angrily, grabbed Leo Joyce tightly by the collar, and hauled him to his feet.
"Cassian, what are you doing?" Seeing Cassian Jennings haul Leo Joyce up, Tiana jumped to her feet in fright.
Cassian Jennings shot Tiana a cold look but didn’t say a word. Instead, he held on to Leo Joyce and demanded harshly, "Where did you hide Amelia Avery!!!"
"Cassian Jennings, are you fucking crazy?!" Hearing this, Leo Joyce’s face darkened. He raised a hand to shove Cassian away and roared in anger.
"Leo Joyce, cut the act! Amelia Avery comes to you for everything. You’re telling me you don’t know where she went?" fгeewebnovёl.com
Hearing Cassian Jennings’s words, Tiana said anxiously, "What happened to Amelia? Cassian, you’ve really misunderstood Leo. He’s been with me these past few days."
Cassian Jennings calmed his temper slightly, turned his gaze to Tiana Grayson, and said with strained patience, "Tiana, you’re usually the most well-behaved, and you don’t lie. Tell me the truth, where did you two hide Amelia Avery?"
"We didn’t hide Amelia! Cassian, did you and Amelia have a fight?"
Leo Joyce couldn’t listen to any more of it. He raised his fist and swung at Cassian Jennings. "You bastard! You’re the one who lost Amelia Avery, and you have the fucking nerve to come here and question us!"
