"What?"
Never coming back?
"Asher Land, could you explain things a bit more clearly? You speak so concisely, I honestly don’t understand what you’re saying."
"Heh." Asher Land let out a soft laugh, with a subtle, inscrutable smile at the corner of his mouth, "I’m saying it so clearly, if you can’t understand, that’s your IQ problem."
"..."
Can’t he speak properly?
He only said a few words; how was she supposed to understand what he ant?
"Hurry up and tell !" Sophie Smith’s tone was starting to get a bit impatient, but she learned this from him.
Asher Land didn’t intend to ss with her any further and succinctly explained the beginning and end of the situation.
"She has figured it out and believes that stepping between us is not a good decision, so she left and will never disturb us again."
Sophie listened to Asher Land’s words, clearly stunned by his statent.
She never expected Irene Morton would completely let go.
Seeing her imrsed in surprise, he extended his hand and pulled her into his arms; he wouldn’t allow her to overthink things.
"What? Not satisfied with this result?" he asked, his deep voice resonating above her head, and Sophie didn’t know how to respond.
Satisfied or not? She couldn’t find the words.
"Letting Irene go like this, are you... really at ease?" She leaned her head against his chest, asking softly.
"Her departure is good for all three of us, so don’t overthink it."
Sophie raised her eyes, carefully examining Asher Land’s face for a long ti, but ultimately she found nothing beyond calmness there.
Though a subtle unease lingered in her heart about Irene Morton, she didn’t pursue it further.
Asher Land headed upstairs, while Sophie remained in the hall, lost in thought for a long ti on the sofa.
"Miss Smith..." Nanny Garcia approached, gently tapping her shoulder, "The young master has been upstairs for quite a while, why don’t you go up?"
Nanny Garcia saw Sophie with such a troubled look, also knowing what she was worrying about.
"Miss Smith, you should let it go a bit. I think Miss Irene truly recognized the reality, so she chose to leave. During this ti, you’ve both taken special care of her, her mood and health have improved, and she’ll be alright." Nanny Garcia said confidently.
"She has always acted so extre; feeling good today might an feeling bad tomorrow, you can never predict her next move." Sophie’s lips curved into a faint, powerless smile; she once even attempted wrist-cutting suicide, sotis she really didn’t seem to care for her own life.
"Miss Smith, you have to trust the young master’s judgnt."
"Hmm?" Sophie didn’t comprehend Nanny Garcia’s aning.
"Although the young master seems indifferent to Miss Irene on the surface, he still cares about her inside; he wouldn’t want anything bad to happen to her..." Nanny Garcia paused for a mont, then quickly continued, "But this ti, the young master let Miss Irene leave without any objection, indicating that he’s confident nothing will happen to her."
"How could he be sure?" Sophie didn’t understand.
"Well..." Nanny Garcia hesitated, "Maybe the young master will secretly arrange for soone to find Miss Irene and protect her."
"But Miss Smith, I truly have to advise you not to suggest to the young master that he should bring Miss Irene back."
