Chapter 41


    Chapter 41


    After getting pped by Moira, Alfie was stunned for a long while, not snapping out of it until


    Bary’s car disappeared around the corner. He quickly turned and got back into his own car.


    ‘I’ve known Moira for twelve years, and she never mentioned knowing Bary. Aiken has never


    crossed paths with Bary. I don’t lieve Bary and Moira are really in love. There must be another


    reason for their sudden marriage!” he thought.


    Bary hadn’t been driving for long before he got caught at a red light. He nced in the rearview


    mirror, his eyes immediately turning sharp. The green light soon appeared, and he continued driving


    forward. Ten minutester, he stopped again.


    “Mrs. Covington,” Bary called out


    Moira was pretending to snooze, too embarrassed to face Bary after what went down with his


    Adam’s apple. Even though Bary didn’t me her, Moira still felt mortified.


    Hearing him call her, Moira’s heart jumped. She slowly cracked open her eyes, acting like she just


    woke up. “You calling for me?”


    Bary looked at her. “Feeling tired?”


    Moira felt like Bary could see through her act and started feeling a bit guilty. She instinctively


    straightened up, like a kid facing an angry parent. “Not really. Just wanted to catch a few Z’s.” She


    quickly changed the subject. “What’s up? Got some work stuff you need to take care of?”


    Moira heard a faint clicking sound and nced towards the source, noticing Bary’s index and


    middle fingers casually tapping the steering wheel.


    “Nah.” he raised his hand and pointed towards the side mirror next to her window. “Looks like we


    won’t be able to grab a bite.”


    Moira followed his gesture. At first, she hadn’t noticed due to the traffic, but soon she spotted Alfie’s


    car.


    Moira got Bary’s drift. She bit her lip. “Can Ie over to your ce now?”


    “Sure thing. After all, it’s your home too.”


    He nced at the red light ahead and revved up the car again. Alfie kept tailing them, and to avoid


    blowing their cover, Moira had no choice but to actually go to Bary’s house.


    Moira wasn’t surprised by Alfie’s persistence. They’d known each other for twelve years and


    understood each other well. If it weren’t for ire, Moiral might still be in love with Alfie.


    Lost in thought, Moira suddenly realized the car had slowed down. She looked ahead, seeing they


    had arrived at Bary’s house.


    The electronic gate sensed Bary’s car and slowly opened. Lights illuminated the yard, and Moira


    could vaguely make out the beautiful garden, but couldn’t see it clearly.


    Watching the car drive into the garage, Moira felt incredibly nervous. She hadn’t expected to


    actually enter Bary’s house.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.
