Mason flew back to Brookesville on Friday evening. Ava and his chauffeur picked him up at the airport.
Ava asked him when he got in the car, “Are you going back to the company or your manor, Mr. Mason?”
He had worn himself out, working for the entire week. Rubbing his brows, he said, “Take me to Zoe’s apartment.”
Ava seethed with jealousy.
After a brief pause, she asked softly, “Are you going to take her back home? Did you guys have a fight?”
He frowned, “You crossed the line, Ava.”
That frightened her and shut her up. Putting both of her hands on her knees, she clutched the hem of her skirt. Women had a sixth sense about these things and she could sense that Zoe was becoming more important to Mason as time went by.
She found another photo frame on his desk a few days ago. Zoe’s picture was in it. After being married for three years, he had finally fallen in love with Zoe after all.
The chauffeur dropped Ava off at her place on their way to Zoe’s apartment. By the time they made it to Zoe’s apartment, it was already late evening and dusk was settling in. A dim evening light was doing its best to hold back the impending darkness.
Zoe was taking a stroll with Gordon. They were murmuring with each other as they walked.
Then, a black limousine stopped right in front of them. The car door swung open and out came Mason. He was dressed in a formal attire. Wearing a black pin-striped suit,he looked dashing and refined in the evening light.
Gordon was not pleased to see him. However, he didn’t let it show. Zoe needed to stay with him after all. He sighed internally and thought his daughter wouldn’t have to put herself through this if the Sanders were still at the top of their game.
Taking out the gifts from the trunk, Mason ordered the chauffeur to bring them upstairs. Then, he said to Gordon in a smile, “You look well, Dad.”
Gordon was about to say something, but he decided otherwise. In the end, he merely patted Zoe’s shoulder and said, “Mason’s here to take you home. Go on up there and tell Mia that you’re going back home!”
Mason stared at her.
Truth be told, she didn’t want him to stay at their apartment. So, she went upstairs with her father, packed up her stuff, and got ready to leave. However, she was very reluctant to go.
Mia stuffed a passbook into her hands. She checked it and found that it had twenty million dollars in it. Looking at Mia, she grumbled, “I saved this for you and Dad, Mia!”
