    Chapter 594


    When they arrived outside tinum Club, Cordy alighted. Sean told her. “Call me anytime you need


    me. I’d be on standby 24/7 as long as you’re in the capital.”


    “Why are you being this nice?” Cordy blurted, unable to help herself.


    Most of the time, she could ept things as they were-or to put it bluntly, she didn’t regard it with that


    much importance.


    In other words, she was fine with however Sean would treat her.


    And yet, her curiosity suddenly got the better of her.


    Sean was in turn silent for a couple seconds before replying nonchntly, “It’s my first impression of


    you, I guess. You looked affable when I firstid eyes on you.”


    Cordy was speechless, but she would give a perfect score to that answer which answers nothing.


    The Cranstons were certainly as sly as foxes.


    “Drive safe,” she told him politely.


    Sean smiled, and drove away.


    He was being honest, but Cordy was obviously skeptical.


    However, her Aunt Evelyn may have yed a huge role in that impression too. She had been kind to


    him when he was a child.


    It was a pity they could never meet again.


    Cordy headed right inside tinum Club, where Maron was waiting.


    He was returning abroad tomorrow; after the unpleasant dinnerst night, he decided to make time for


    Cordy over tea.


    As Cordy strode into the WIP room, she paused.


    She had the impulse to turn and leave when she saw Lucas inside-she had assumed Maron wouldn’t


    try to get them in the same room again after their disagreementst night.


    “Lovely,” Maron greeted Cordy warmly when she arrived.” Things ended unpleasantly during dinnerst


    night with some misunderstanding, so I brought Lucas here to clear the air.”


    Cordy nced at Lucas, who stayed in his seat and took a sip of his coffee,pletely ignoring her.


    “There’s no misunderstanding,” Cordy said, and didn’t leave like she did yesterday since it was


    impolite.


    Maron rarely visited the capital; she should do her best to y nice instead of dropping her manners


    because of a despicable man.


    It waspletely unnecessary.


    “It’s just that we don’t sit well with each other,” she added.” But that’s fine. I’ll bear with it since it’s not


    often we need it.”


    Cordy’s words were plenty clear-things would still remain hostile between her and Lucas, but she had


    enough respect for Maron to stay in the same room with him.


    Maron rubbed his nose, feeling slightly awkward.


    He knew Cordy wasn’t a bad person, and she normally wouldn’t go that far if she didn’t hate a person.


    He was simply being kind; he had a nagging feeling that Lucas would ultimately regret his discord with


    Cordy since connections were vital for business.


    Judging from Cordy’s reaction, however, Maron knew full well that he would be crossing a line if he


    spoke any further.


    As such, he did not, and simply invited her to sit down with them.


    Cordy ordered a cup of ck coffee, mostly to reinvigorate herself.


    She went through an entire night without sleep, so she felt mushy and utterly drained.

    “Don’t you feel hot?” Maron suddenly asked, staring at her down coat.


    Before Cordy could answer, he realized with a start and eximed excitedly, “That’s a matching set


    with Lucas! Isn’t that right, Lucas?’


    Lucas kept his gaze lowered as he drank his coffee, remaining neutral towards Cordy since she


    entered the room.


    Without looking up, he muttered, “Yeah.”
