Chapter 75
Sure enough, he saw Woodrow sitting in the car.
At this moment, his expression was slightly cold, as if he was
somewhat displeased.
A pang of guilt surged up instantly; he subconsciously glanced
at Kaneeta.
Then he noticed that Kaneeta was also looking at Woodrow.
In her eyes was a complexity he could not understand.
During this time in Calchester, what exactly had happened
between the two of them?
Miguel felt a heavy pressure in his chest.
“Get in,” Woodrow said coolly.
As he spoke those two words, he didn’t look at anyone.
It seemed he wanted both of them to get in the car.
“Big brother, I…”
Miguel wanted to protest, but as soon as Woodrow shot him a
Chapter 75
look, he immediately fell silent.
“Mr. Miguel, why don’t you go back with Mr. Woodrow first,”
Kaneeta said to him. “I’ll have the driver come pick me up.”
Before Miguel could respond, Woodrow said coldly, “Ms.
Drayton, I’m not so lacking in manners as to leave you here
alone.”
Kaneetá:”

That wasn’t what she meant.
She was just worried the two brothers might have something to
discuss, and her presence would be inconvenient.
“Then… I’ll trouble you, Mr. Woodrow.”
Kaneeta thought for a moment and decided to sit in the front
passenger seat, leaving Miguel to sit in the back with Woodrow.
But before she could reach for the car door, Woodrow said to
Miguel, “You sit in the front.”
Miguel silently went to sit in the front passenger seat.
Kaneeta had no choice but to sit in the back.
Once both of them were in the car, the driver started off in

silence.
Kaneeta wanted very much to sneak a glance at Woodrow, but
she restrained herself.
She couldn’t shake the feeling that he was unhappy.
But what was he unhappy about?
She and Miguel were about to be engaged; the two of them
getting along should make Woodrow happy, shouldn’t it?
This man was becoming more and more strange.
“Go to Miguel’s apartment first,” Woodrow instructed the
driver.
Miguel liked peace and quiet when he painted, and sometimes
he would paint for an entire day, forgetting everything else.
To prevent any unexpected interruptions, he had bought an apartment, and most of the time, he lived there alone.
“Big brother, it’s fine,” Miguel said hurriedly. “Let’s take Ms.
Drayton home first.”
“Second Young Master, your place is closer,” the driver,
unaware of the situation, analyzed rationally.

Miguel pressed his lips together, wanting to say more, but when
he saw Woodrow’s indifferent face in the rearview mirror, he
gave up.
“How is the preparation for your art exhibition going?”
Woodrow suddenly asked.
Miguel answered honestly, “It’s going very smoothly.”
“Hmm,” Woodrow replied, neither warm nor cold. “No wonder
you have so much free time tonight.”
Miguel didn’t know how to respond, so he remained silent.
Soon, the car stopped in front of Miguel’s apartment building.
“Big brother, I’ll head up now. Ms. Drayton… goodbye.”
“Goodbye, Mr. Miguel,” Kaneeta said politely.
Miguel got out of the car, and it quickly drove away.

But he didn’t go upstairs right away; instead, he stood where he
was, his face stiff.
Was it really going to go on like this?
Was he really going to keep hiding the truth from Kaneeta?

But this lie could be exposed with a single poke.
Even if he could keep it hidden forever and actually win
Kaneeta’s heart, could a love stolen like this really last?
Miguel’s eyes turned red.

Ever since Miguel got out of the car, the atmosphere inside had
grown even stranger.
Kaneeta felt an overwhelming pressure from the man beside
her; she wished she could shrink into a quail and stay that way
until she got home.
But suddenly, Woodrow spoke.
“Did you enjoy tonight’s welcome ceremony?”
