Chapter 1586 You Are Terrified She Will Return
At the same time, downstairs in Andrius' office.
Andrea sat anxiously in the office, thinking about the person she saw downstairs just now.
‘If I’m not mistaken, that was Byron! ‘Since Wendy left, my brother and Byron have hardly had anycontact with each other.novelbin
‘This time, Byron came over suddenly.Did he find something? ‘Could it be...
‘He found Wendy's whereabouts?’ Andrea became restless at that thought and hurriedly grabbed herbag and left the office.
She dashed downstairs and drove to the house of the man she had visited with Wendy the previoustime.
It was already dark when she arrived.
Alistair was leisurely watering the flowers at home.
When the butler informed him that she had arrived, he hesitated for a moment.
Then, he asked the butler to bring her in.
"Miss Quirke, what an honored guest."
Alistair did not put the watering can down until the butler brought Andrea in from outside.
Then, he wiped his hands and sat down on the sofa.
Glancing at Andrea who was standing aside cautiously, he said, "If you have anything to say, take aseat and tell me."
Andrea sat down on the sofa hesitantly.She was a little frightened of the person in front of her.
The last time she saw how he treated Wendy had put a lingering fear in her heart.
Furthermore, this person was capable of sending Wendy abroad and concealing the truth from theLawrence family.
This meant he had a formidable background, and she could not afford to offend him! Even thoughAlistair's attitude toward her was considered polite, Andrea still could not help doubting herself.
‘Perhaps I...shouldn't be here?’ The butler poured tea for them and placed a cup in front ofAndrea.Andrea suddenly came back to her senses.Alistair could sense that she was afraid of him as aglint of darkness flashed across his eyes.
"I'm curious if there's something significant that brought you here."
Andrea paused once more after being asked what she was doing here.
She picked up the teacup and took a sip, emboldening herself before saying cautiously, "Wendy hasbeen away for a few days, and I haven’t been able to contact her.I’m a little worried, so..."
"So, you came to ask me about Wendy's whereabouts?"
Alistair raised his eyebrows.
Andrea stopped talking, forced a smile, and nodded.
She quickly added, "It's okay if it's not convenient for you to tell me.I just want to know when she’ll beback"
Alistair snorted knowingly.
"Do you want her to come back, or do you not want her to come back?"
Hearing this, the expression on Andrea's face froze.
Alistair rolled his eyes at her and casually said, "Let me make an educated guess.I think you’re terrifiedthat she'll return."
Andrea's breathing rhythm unconsciously slowed down, and she stuttered.
"W-Why would I be? Wendy is my best friend..."
Alistair put down the teacup in his hand like he did not hear her and carried on.
"She’ll come back, but not as Wendy."
Andrea frowned slightly, her eyes filled with puzzlement.
Alistair explained leisurely, 'You can rest assured that when she comes back, no one will recognize her,not even you."
Just when Andrea felt relieved, he spoke again.
"Unless...she comes looking for you."
These words wrapped around her neck like an icy boa, suffocating her.
‘If Wendy ever returns to Somerland, will she let me go?’
