That’s none of your business,Gregory uttered, leaving no room for argument

Theo slowly curled his fingers into fists

The atmosphere instantly turned tense

Just before things could escalate any further, Adrian stepped in in time. Enough. Now is not the time to argue about this. Let’s stick to the plan and deal with what’s on hand first.” 

Only then did Theo avert his gaze, letting out a disgruntled snort. You’d better handle everything properly!” 

With that, he stormed off toward where the arsonists were being held

Gregory said nothing as he boarded the helicopter to Castenea with Adrian

Tomorrow would be a tough battle. He needed to keep his mind clear and free of all distractions

Anathea wondered if men always broke their promises so easily once they made them

Just like last time, Gregory said he’d come home early to eat birthday cake with her, but he had broken that promise too

What was the reason this time

She glanced at her phone. He had sent a message again, saying there was something important he had to handle. But as always, he never told her what it was

Anaea put the phone down and looked out the window. The sunlight had already vanished beyond the horizon, and dusk had begun to settle over everything

She looked down

The feeling of being kept in the dark and not knowing anything wasn’t a good feeling

Just then, Jenny bounced over to her. Mrs. Sinclair, Bella made some desserts. They smell amazing. Come try them!Jenny handed Anathea a pink macaron

Only then did Anathea shift her attention. She took the macaron and took a bite. It was strawberry flavored, sweet but not cloying

It’s delicious.” 

There’s also a chocolateflavored one. Come on, Mrs. Sinclair,Bella said with anticipation

Anathea nodded and decided to stop thinking about everything else for now

You’re so skilled in baking, Bella,Jenny commented enviously. If I tried, everything would come out of the oven as a pile of black charcoal. There’s no way I could make something this pretty!‘ 

Bella looked a little embarrassed. I just recently signed up for a pastry class and learned a bit, so I’m not that skilled yet.” 

She then looked at Anathea. Mrs. Sinclair, try this flavor. It tastes better.” 

Anathea took a chocolateflavored macaron and bit into it, enjoying the rich chocolate aroma

Just then, Cyrus came over, carrying a pot of tea. It’s not good to have such excessive sweets. Have some tea to balance it out.” 

When did you become so thoughtful, Cyrus?Jenny asked, puzzled

Usually, he was so stiff and formal. He only ever tried to curry favor with Gregory. Now, he even made tea for Anathea, which was surprising

Anathea was a bit shocked as well

But Cyrus just replied seriously, Before Mr. Sinclair left, he told me to take good care of Mrs. Sinclair, so of course, I’m following his instructions.” 

Jenny and Bella exchanged a glance and instantly understood. Of course, Cyrus was just trying to gain favor with Gregory by flattering Anathea

Not caring what they thought of him, Cyrus poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Anathea. Mrs. Sinclair, please try it.” 

When Anathea noticed his earnest expression, she took the cup. Thank you.” 

The tea had a subtle rose fragrance with a hint of sweetness

You two should try some, too,Cyrus said, pouring Jenny and Bella each a cup of the tea

Thank you, Cyrus.Bella looked pleasantly surprised as she took the cup with both hands and took a sip. It’s really good.” 

Jenny glanced at the rose petals floating in her cup and pinched her nose. She usually didn’t like roseflavored things, so she just lightly touched the cup with her lips before putting it down

Anathea had finished her dessert and tea. Glancing at the darkening sky outside the window, she asked, Has Xander not returned yet?”
