Chapter 82: Peeked


    "I see.Would you like to drop by my ce for a while? The weather is freezing today,’’ offered Amora,


    who would swear that she was just making small talk when she made that offer.


    She never expected him to take up on that offer immediately.


    "Sure,"replied Solomon, "I happen to have a feww books for you.These are the books you asked me


    to buy for you earlier.I''ll take them to your ce."


    Amora didn''t know how to respond to that.Shoot! I forgot all about this.


    Is it toote now to tell him that I won''t take the matter to court? In the end, Amora brought that man to


    the ce she rented.


    The season was changing, and winter was right around the corner, so it was actually pretty cold.


    The ce was too old, and both the windows and walls were too thin, so no one felt warmer after


    Amora opened the door.


    In fact, walking into the house made one feel even colder.


    "I''m so sorry about this.Let me turn the heater on,’’ said Amora before she hurried to the heater.


    Solomon circled around the house absent-mindedly.


    That was only the second time he went into that house, but he didn''t seem unfamiliar with the ce.


    "Esme, this ce is too old, and it''s not warm enough.Would you like to rent another ce?"


    "Huh? Oh, there''s no need for that.This ce is actually pretty good.It''s close to the preschool, so it''s


    convenient,’’ replied Amora, who was busy getting the heater to work.


    Are you kidding? It took me forever to find an old and dingy ce like this.

    That scum definitely won''t set foot in this ce, so why would I want to move? It''s not like I enjoy being


    annoyed.


    It didn''t take Amora long to set the heater up, but she busied away in the kitchen soon after.


    What she wasn''t aware of was that as she was busying away and focused on her cooking, her guest in


    her living room had poured himself a ss of water.


    He suddenly got up and walked to the kitchen door.


    The dim light from the evening sun illuminated the ce, and the steam filled the kitchen, but he never


    shifted his gaze from her.


    And his gaze...


    It looked like love, but it also seemed like a simple, tonic gaze.


    Still, if anyone were to take a closer look, they would see a fiery passion that was as hot as the working


    heater in the living room.In fact, it was so hot that it was rming!


    "Sorry to make you wait.I have to get everything done before the kids are back.That way, they can fill


    their tummies as soon as theye home."


    Maybe it was because she sensed the burning gaze, but Amora turned around, looked at him, and


    uttered those words soon after.


    Solomon saw how awkward she seemed, so he retracted his gaze unwillingly.


    "It''s fine.Do you need any help?"


    "No.You can rx in the living room," said Amora without a hint of hesitation.


    The two of them knew each other well, but there was still a distance between the two.Amora continued


    for about twenty minutes before she finally finished preparing everything.


    "Let''s head out together,’’ said Amora bluntly when she left.


    She didn''t beat around the bush and suggested that the man leave with her.


    It was impossible for Solomon to not know what she meant.At that moment, all he could do was grin


    wryly before walking down the stairs with her.


    All in all, he stayed for less than thirty minutes with her.


    "Mr.George, is Ms.Rory still going to court?"


    "No, not anymore."


    The man who had been smiling gently a moment ago looked distant and cruel inside the car.


    The name that they used in their conversation was no longer Esme but Amora.


    "Have they patch up?" asked the personal assistant who steeled up after hearing everything.


    However, the man never answered that question.


    His expression simply changed and he looked grim, and the look in the eyes behind his sses turned


    cold too.


    "Didn''t you say that Kane never told his father about her return?"


    "That''s right."


    "Why?"


    "I''m thinking it''s because Ms.Rory is categorized as someone who has cheated death.Her identity and


    record would have been erased back then.Which means they would have to submit an application to


    the court to reim her name once they take her back."


    The man was quiet for a second.


    Reim her name? So does that mean the Kane guy doesn''t want her to im her identity and the


    record she held now? Why though? Is it because she would be recognized as part of the Ronin family


    once she ims her identity? Could it be that Kane Ronin doesnt want that to happen? Solomon


    suddenly acted like he realized something.


    The grim expression on his face instantly eased up a lot.


    "Spread the news right away!"


    "Huh?"


    blurted the assistant in confusion, "Spread the news? W-won''t that make things worse for you? Once


    the news got out, Chris will learn about her survival and would want her identity to be recovered


    immediately.That would turn her into Kane''s legal wife once more."


    "No, you''re wrong.She will never be one of them."


    After saying his piece, the man''s gaze reverted to its solemn and gentle stance.It might even carry a


    hint of glee.
