Ivy gazed at Caspian's reply and immediately messaged back. [Caspian, how's Lucas doing lately? Is he okay?] [He's fine! The investment party sent a guy over recently, and he's been bugging him daily.] [Huh? Do you mean what I think you mean?] Ivy asked.
[What are you thinking?] [Didn't you say that guy's been bothering Lucas every day? Does that guy like him?] [Haha! I don't think so! The guy isn't very familiar with our area, so he clings to Lucas wherever he goes. Lucas doesn't like going out, so I said I could apany him, but he didn't want that.] [So, where have they been going?] Ivy typed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[Bars, nightclubs... Those places guys tend to like!] [...] [Haha, I feel like both the people sent by this investor aren't taking this very seriously. Ivy, I'll tell you everything when you return. Are you having fun being back home?] [Yeah, it's been fun!] [It's no wonder you've been away for so long. I thought you weren't planning on returning to Taronia!] Caspianmented.
[I promised I'de back, so I definitely will. Caspian, is there anything you want? I can bring you a gift.] Ivy offered.
[I heard there's a powerful drone manufacturingpany in your country. It's called Tate Industries... Could you helpbuy the latest drone model? I'll transfer the money to you, and you can bring it along when youe back!] Ivy laughed and replied: [No problem.] [By the way, your country has recently had a bit of sensational news. Our media has been reporting on it all day! Do you know Hayden Tate? He's the elder brother of the owner of Tate Industries. He married amoner recently. Do you know about that?] Ivy could not help but burst into laughter. [If you know about it, of course, I do, too.] [Imagine being born into such a wealthy family. How great that must feel!] Caspian typed.
[Yes.] Ivy replied.
[Ivy, your family is well-off, too, right? What social class does your family belong to in Aryadelle?] Ivy looked at the messages on her phone screen and wondered whether Caspian knew about her identity. She found his sudden mentioning of Tate Industries, Hayden, and her family suspicious.
[Caspian, let's talk about this more when I get to Taronia.] Ivy replied.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[All right! I'm looking forward to your arrival! If bringing the drone is Pol.ne inconvenient, send it through an international courier.] Caspian added. [Okay! I'll mail the drone to you!] After the chat, Ivy stretched her neck and noticed her sister standing beside her.
"Layla, how long have you been standing here?" Ivy stood up.
"I've been standing here all along. I saw and grinning from a Gover to check on y belongs to You "Hahaha... I was chatting with a friend," Ivy explained.
"From Taronia?" "Yeah." "Was it Lucas?" Layla questioned.
"No. It was Lucas' friend. The two of them started a business together." "I see. Are you so happy texting Lucas' friend? You must be beaming whenever you're with Lucas." "It's different," Ivy said.
"You two haven't even started dating yet. Who knows how lovey-dovey you two will get if you date?" Layla teased. "Maybe it won't be as stressful and exciting if we do start dating," Ivy said.
"Life isn't all about excitement and stress. You get a heart attack being constantly excited or stressed!" Laylamented. "Layla, I booked the flight ticket to Taronia for tomorrow, and I haven't told Mom and Dad yet." "It's best that you tell them soon! I asked Eliam just now, and he said Lucas hasn't fallen for Hayden's trap so far," Layla said.
