The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 556

Not this again.

Ferris really had come just to sabotage my love life.

Using the exact same old trick.

Previously, to stop me from being with Leon, he claimed Leon was a mama's boy whose family would never accept me. Then he insisted Leon already had a woman in his heart and was only playing with me.

And the result?

The result was Leon bringing me soup personally brewed by Mrs. Lennox, firmly stating he had outright rejected his arranged engagement to Miss Whitlock.

Sincerity wasn't proven with words; it was proven with actions. I could feel Leon's genuine intentions.

It was the complete opposite of Ferris's dire warnings. And now Ferris was trying to run the same script on me to keep me away from Caspian.

It was truly ridiculous. I looked up at him, a mocking smirk curling my lips. "Oh, Caspian is incredibly dangerous. He has deep ties to the Thorne Family. Not to mention, he and Tiffany Thorne are childhood sweethearts—a perfect match. He's not really into me at all. Director Sterling, is that what you wanted to say?"

"My previous intelligence was flawed. Caspian and Tiffany Thorne aren't together. But he really does have ulterior motives. He's very danger—" Ferris frowned deeply, looking frustratingly serious as he tried to correct the old intel.

But I couldn't listen to another word. "He has an ulterior motive, his intentions are impure, and he's not someone I can trust. Right?"

"...Yes." Ferris paused for a moment but still nodded.

"Director Sterling, please invent a new script next time, or at least come up with a halfway decent excuse. Even if I were stupid, using the exact same trick over and over again is insulting," I scoffed coldly.
