Chapter 128 Full of Lies
"I can't figure it out. That's why I ask you, Dr. Lane.”
Just like during the journey here, Jane was very capable of restraining her emotions.
Seeing that the car had already turned into the familiar street, Cora asked her back, "So, yousuddenly decided to learn woodcarving to figure out why I became Sir Yoris' apprentice. Is thatcorrect, Dr. Yoris?"
Jane did not respond, which could be regarded as acquiescing.
There was no point in denying it. In fact, Cora had already seen through her motive as early as whenshe followed Cora to become Gideon's apprentice.
And because of Jane's frankness earlier, Cora no longer continued to hide. "If I say I do this solelyfor self-protection, will you believe it, Dr. Yoris?"
Jane parked the car under Cora's apartment and looked at Cora with a puzzled expression. "Self-protection? What self-protection?”
Although she didn't like Cora, she still believed her words at this moment.
Cora said, "You should ask your mother about this. She knows it better.”
Then Cora took her bag and pushed open the car door. "Dr, Yoris, I still need to thank you for takingthe time out of your busy schedule to drive me back."
At this point, Jane's mind had started to become a mess
She couldn't figure out why this matter was related to her mother.
When she pondered whether she could believe Cora's words while gripping the steering wheel, shesaw Cora, who had gotten out of the car earlier, knocking on her car window.
Jane had no choice but to roll down the window.
Cora bent down and said sincerely, "As a reward for driving me home tonight, I would like to adviseyou that I have no interest in assisting you. You have to deal with dirtiness when you learnwoodcarving, and it is an exhausting and strenuous job. There is no need for Dr. Yoris to learn thisart just to compete with someone like me.”
Jane didn't think that Cora was persuading her out of kindness, so she just replied with a smile,"You're worrying too much, Dr. Lane. I just didn't wish for my grandfather to have no one to inherithis skills. Anyway, it's getting late. You should go back and rest early, Dr. Lane.”
"Good night, Dr. Yoris," Cora said before turning around and walking away.
Jane soon started the car and disappeared into the night.
When Cora got inside, Byron was already in the apartment.
"Is this the ruthless thing you meant?" He didn't turn on the lights, and the room was a little dimHowever, with the shine of the floor-to-ceiling window, Cora could still see that Byron was standingby the window and smoking a cigarette.
Under the dim light, his slightly taut lines on the sides of his face as well as his Adam's apple thatoccasionally bobbed up and down became more alluring.
Jane's car was parked downstairs earlier, and Byron was standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows, sohe must have seen everything, including what he should and should not have seen.
She didn't feel guilty about being caught doing something bad and just put the bag on the cabinetbefore seductively walking toward Byron.
"Yeah, we have put our affairs under the nose of your fiancée. Are you afraid?”
She didn't mention the matters of Sara and infiltrating the Yoris family, because she couldn't stand itand felt disdainful about it.
Furthermore, she also thought that if Byron was truly siding with Jane or the Yoris family, he mightnot be able to accept whatever she might tell him about these things.
She walked toward him gracefully. Her steps were slow, and each step was sparking anxiety as if shewas lighting a fire in the man's heart.
Byron simply didn't wait any longer and brought this delicate flower of his into his arms in a fewsteps. He said, "What am I afraid of? I have nothing to do with them.”
Cora didn't have the mood to act in front of him, so she grabbed the man’s collar and looked up athim.
"Then, if I do crueler things to your fiancée, will you turn against me?"
Under the dim light, Byron looked down at her.
This woman was not a pure angel. She could be a demon, a charmer, and a schemer.
He just wanted to get rid of her at first, but the closer they got, the more he had to admit that hewas addicted to her.
This was not a good sign.
As far as he was concerned, being too greedy for a woman was tantamount to having a weakness.But did he really want to go that far for her?
Byron supposed he still needed to think about it.
However, his long silence seemed to have caused the woman in her arms to misunderstandsomething, as she quickly let go of his collar and broke free from his long arms.
"A man's mouth is truly full of lies. You said that she has nothing to do with you, yet you started toworry about her the moment I said I wanted to harm her!"
Cora seemed to only turn around and grumble as she pleased
Only she knew that turning around was just an excuse to conceal the gradually broken expectationand attachment in her eyes.
