May Sloane knew that at the mont the information was exchanged, Tiana could no longer keep herself unaffected.
She could only nod, "I rember."
As Tiana Thorne stood up, she reminded her once more, "My dear, I reckon Cain Rhodes is a very suspicious man. Even though your sister loves him so much, he never truly trusted her. You need to be careful with your words and actions, so he doesn’t suspect you."
May Sloane realized she had lost her composure earlier and nodded, "I will be careful in the future."
"I’ll head over first then."
"Mm."
After Jada Sutton returned, she found that Cain Rhodes had already returned to his usual gentle deanor.
The change was too quick.
For so reason, it felt like Cain was sowhat different from before, but he couldn’t pinpoint exactly where.
"Will she co?"
Jada Sutton nodded, "She said she’ll co over soon."
Cain Rhodes’s gaze grew deeper, asking again, "Not the slightest hesitation?"
Jada didn’t know what had happened and recalled the scene when she went to invite Tiana Thorne.
It seed that her agent said sothing first but was interrupted.
However, at that ti, the aning seed aligned, so he didn’t think much of it.
He shook his head, "No, she said she should have co to see you personally."
Cain’s expression deepened.
Just then, Tiana Thorne walked over, with a gentle smile on her cheeks, seeming quite eager.
Seeing this, Jada Sutton retreated and closed the door for the two of them.
Tiana Thorne smiled, "Brother Cain, I’m here."
At the mont, she had changed out of her costu, her long hair flowing like it had just been washed, lazily draped over her shoulders.
She wore a youthful white dress, exuding a sweet and youthful aura.
"Miss Tiana, please sit."
Tiana Thorne did not stand on ceremony and sat down beside him.
"Brother Cain, you don’t have to call Miss Tiana every ti. We’re working together now, and you’re my senior. If you don’t mind, just call Tiana."
Cain Rhodes looked into her eyes, beautiful and clear, seemingly without a trace of impurities.
Those eyes made it hard for him to believe that she approached him with a purpose.
Cain’s voice deepened, "Alright, I’ll call you Tiana then."
Tiana Thorne imdiately smiled, bending her lips.
She seed to think of sothing, frowning slightly as she asked with concern, "Brother Cain, did you encounter sothing unpleasant before?"
Cain’s brows moved slightly, surprised that she brought up the matter.
Seeing his silence, Tiana blinked and said gently, "If it’s difficult to answer, then let’s leave it be. It might be that my acting is indeed problematic, I..."
Cain looked at her with increasingly deep eyes, his voice gentle, "It has nothing to do with your acting, I just thought of sothing."
Even though he was the sa as before, without any significant changes, she could clearly feel the atmosphere had changed.
A spark of danger seed to be igniting.
Tiana pretended not to understand what he ant and smiled lightly, still appearing innocent and clever, "Brother Cain, if it’s sothing unpleasant, just forget it."
Cain looked at her cute and carefree deanor, as if she really had no worries at all.
Moreover, she had an inexplicable aura that gradually relaxed him.
And such relaxation was deadly for him.
He subtly withdrew his gaze, slightly lowered his head, and his gaze suddenly turned cold, bloodthirsty, and sinister.
"Tiana, who else do you have in your family?"
Tiana curved her lips into a smile, her fox-like eyes hiding a bit of slyness.
Indeed, the fox’s tail was about to show.
Tiana’s expression gradually dimd, her voice losing its forr warmth, "Ever since I can rember, I only had a sister."
Cain’s breath hitched, his gaze turning heavy.
He squinted slightly, then looked up again, returning to his forrly gentle gaze, avoiding her sister’s topic, and asked instead, "What about your parents?"
Tiana’s expression softened, as she recalled her childhood.
"When I was young, they were no longer around. It was just and my sister, relying on each other."
She thought of sothing pleasant, revealing a slight smile.
"When I was little, I always lived at the neighbor’s. My sister would visit every month, every ti bringing princess dresses and treats I loved."
Cain was sowhat moved, but only for a brief mont.
"Whenever my sister left, I would cry. The aunt would say my sister was a big star in the entertainnt industry, and I would see her on TV."
Tiana’s eyes turned red by now, "I watched TV every day, but never saw my sister appear. The aunt was lying to ."
"As a child, I didn’t understand, thinking my sister didn’t want anymore. Then one day, I really saw her on TV, but they said she had jumped to her death..."
Cain frowned as he watched the tears fall from her eyes.
Tiana suddenly looked at him.
Their eyes t, and her eyes were filled with sorrow.
Cain’s breathing tightened, feeling sowhat unnatural, but he held it in.
His voice weighed heavily, "Did you enter the entertainnt industry because of your sister?"
Tiana nodded, wiping her tears, "After high school, I realized the aunt wasn’t lying. My sister was indeed in the entertainnt industry, but the aunt didn’t know she was a manager."
He looked at the genuine tears in her eyes, without any falseness.
This was all completely unexpected for Cain.
He thought Tiana would hold back sothing.
Yet she laid all her emotions bare before him, her longing for her sister, why she entered the industry...
"Since you entered the entertainnt circle, did you check which artists your sister managed back then?"
Upon hearing this, Tiana’s expression changed instantly, admiration in her eyes becoming more evident.
She bit her lip, hesitating to speak, her voice sowhat uneasy, cautiously saying, "I... I wonder if you have any impression of my sister..."
Cain’s gaze shifted slightly, feigning ignorance, "What’s your sister’s na?"
Tiana: "I checked the records, she managed you for many years."
Cain’s typically gentle deanor wavered.
He frowned slightly, "Are you saying, Lily Sloane?"
Tiana nodded, excitedly standing up, "Yes, my sister, that’s right, Lily Sloane. You rember her!"
She laughed and cried, overco with emotion.
Cain’s throat moved slightly, his gaze growing deeper as he watched her.
At that mont, she seed like soone abandoned in the first half of her life, but upon eting him, felt saved,
Her excited and joyful appearance was like seeing the only family mber in the world.
"Tiana Thorne."
