Chapter 520

That little traitor…

Lance secretly gave Tommy a thumbs up!

“We’ve prepared lunch. If you don’t mind, come in and have a bite,” Sierra said indifferently.

“No.” John caught the coldness in her eyes and how she wasn’t welcoming of him. “I still need to inspect a branch office later. Enjoy your meal. We’re leaving.”

Lance was stunned. The food was right there, and he wouldn’t stay?!

John ignored the look in Lance’s eyes and said, “Get in the car.”

“Of course,” Lance said feebly.

After the car had gone some distance, Lance finally worked up the courage to ask, “Boss, what were you thinking? Ms. Bell invited you to eat, and you still turned her down. That’s an easy way to lose points with her.”

John did not answer.

Accepting would have been the real way to lose points.

He understood Sierra. He knew she hadn’t really wanted him to stay for a meal. She had only said it because Tommy was there, and she didn’t want Tommy to see the open conflict and tension between them.

The truth was almost exactly what he had guessed.

The current Sierra didn’t want much contact with him.

While she was free from the suffocating feeling of having to stay in a marriage she couldn’t leave, she had never fully let her guard down. She still hoped they could live separate lives and not interfere with each other.

“Did you leave anything else behind?” Sierra asked.

Tommy shook his head. “No.”

ierra held his hand and walked back with him. She knew Tommy had done it on purpose, but she didn’t call him out. ance was still trying to figure things out on his end. “When did Mr. Tommy’s things get put in the trunk? When we picked up the car at the airport, we never even opened it.”

“It was put there when the trunk was opened just now.” John knew exactly what had happened.

Lance froze.

First came confusion and shock, then pure irritation. Tommy had already handed him a perfect scenario, and John still refused to take it. It was enough to make him anxious!

After that day. Sierra and John went their separate ways.

“The moment you come here and receive the assignment, the test officially begins,” Maxwell reminded her. “During this period, you can’t ask anyone for help. You can only rely on yourself to finish it. Even the signet ring Grandpa gave you will not

help.”

This was to test the abilities of the younger generation of the family. All the major families in Harbor City knew about it.

It was not just him and Loren. The younger generation in the other major families of Harbor City had to go through the same thing. This was a pure test of personal ability.

“I know.” Sierra had been ready for this from the start.

“You can spend a little more time learning from Aunt Anna.” Maxwell knew she hadn’t been raised with this kind of training, and he also knew this test would be especially hard for her.
