Samson’s POV:

“No.”

Hearing her answer, I felt a strange mix of relief and disappointment.

Maybe I really was imagining things-just a drunk man’s illusion. Odd though, I’ve never been drunk before, no matter how much energy wine I drink. But last night? I was completely out of it. Guess I should cut back from now on.

I stood, walked to the fridge, and opened it. “Hungry? There’s food inside. I can cook breakfast, or we can go out.”

She froze, surprised by the sudden change of topic. After a pause, she said quietly, “Pack up. We’ll head back this afternoon.”

“Alright.” I nodded without arguing.

Amanda’s POV:

The car rolled through the gates of the castle. When I opened the door and stepped inside, Hugh looked up and smiled warmly. “Amanda, how does it go?”

“It went fine. Nothing too hard.” I forced a small smile, trying to sound casual. But the moment I thought about last night, something still felt off.

“I knew it! You always do great.” Hugh chuckled until his eyes nearly disappeared, then glanced around in confusion. “Wait, why are you alone? Where’s Samson?”

At the mention of his name, irritation bubbled up inside me. I kept my tone even. “He went to the office.”

Hugh’s sharp instincts caught my mood right away. He scowled and asked, “Did Samson give you a hard time? If he ever bullies you, tell me. I’ll deal with him myself.”

I dropped my gaze and shook my head quickly. “No, I’m fine.” How could I possibly tell him about that ridiculous kiss? Just thinking about it made my face burn. “Hugh, I’m a little tired. I think I’ll rest for a bit.”

After a quick goodbye, I hurriedly went upstairs and ran into my room.

Behind me, I heard Hugh chuckle quietly, a smile tugging at his lips. The butler, Will Garner, stood beside him. He couldn’t help commenting, “Mr. Hugh, you seem to be in a rather good mood today.”

“Of course I am.” Hugh’s grin widened. “Looks like my little trick worked just fine. Let them spend more time together. Sooner or later, sparks will fly. I’ll just have to make sure I don’t let my future granddaughter-in-law slip away.”

“You’re absolutely right, Mr. Hugh,” Will agreed at once. “Ms. Amanda is intelligent and composed. Mr. Samson’s calm and thoughtful. They make a perfect match. Speaking of which, Mr. Samson’s birthday is coming up. Maybe that’s the right time to nudge things along?”

Hugh nodded, eyes gleaming with scheming amusement. “No need to rush. We’ll watch quietly for now. When the time’s right, we’ll give them a little push.”

I picked up their conversation and froze mid-step. My cheeks were burning. Was Hugh trying to set me up with Samson? Thinking about last night’s kiss made my stomach twist. I picked up my pace and practically ran back to my room.

Once inside, I shut the door, opened my laptop, and logged into the special account I’d used to help Samson translate the Isnesh language files.
