Chapter 1348

[ 592 words ]

It was better to take the initiative and draw a line with York right now.

Later on… she was confident that if she ran into trouble again, York wouldn’t just ignore her.

“I’ll find someone to help me move right away.”

Hearing her say this, York felt a twinge of guilt. “I’ll come help you… Never mind, I’ll hire some movers for you.”

If he wanted to make a clean break with Cindy, he couldn’t go see her willingly.

He couldn’t afford to let The James Family catch him in a lie.

Cindy caught the reluctance in York’s voice and frowned. “No need. I can find someone.”

“I don’t want to make things difficult for you, York.”

York felt even more guilty upon hearing that.

“I’m sorry, Cindy. I said I’d take good care of you, but my hands are tied.”

“I don’t want to hear you say sorry.” Cindy smoothly changed the subject. “I want you to be happy and have a bright future.”

York was completely at a loss for words.

“Okay, I will do as you wish.”

The two of them were sickly sweet, leaving one to wonder what poor Tabitha James would think of all this.

Claire, for her part, didn’t care at all about running into Cindy and her ex-fiancé.

After finishing dinner, she headed straight for The Royal Grand.

The Royal Grand was considered quite luxurious in the city, so Meiko Fujii’s mentor was clearly not short on cash.

Claire only called Meiko Fujii when she arrived downstairs at The Royal Grand.

She had listened to the old woman’s advice and brought Dewitt along.

“I’ll come down and get you.”

Meiko Fujii was absolutely thrilled to hear that Claire had arrived.

However, when she saw a man standing next to Claire, the smile vanished from her face.

She looked at Claire hesitantly. “Claire, is he with you?”

Claire nodded. “My family didn’t feel comfortable letting me go out alone, so they asked my cousin to come with me.”

“You don’t mind, do you?”

Claire didn’t miss a single shift in Meiko Fujii’s expression.

Meiko Fuji managed a tight smile. “Not exactly, but my mentor has a rather eccentric temper, When it’s time for the consultation, could this gentleman wait outside?”

Claire looked at Dewitt, who gestured that he had no problem with it.

Claire then replied, “Of course. We respect the patient’s privacy.”

Meiko Fujii breathed a sigh of relief.

“Let’s head up, then.”

Meiko Fujii led Claire upstairs.

“I’ll go tell my mentor first. Could you wait out here for a moment?”

The suite at The Royal Grand was quite nice, featuring an outer living room and two inner bedrooms.

Meiko Fujii brought the two of them

into the diving room and poured a

cup of tea for both Claire and Dewitte

Once Meiko Fujii went inside, Dewitt asked, “Claire, do you know who this Meiko Fujii’s mentor is?”

He hadn’t expected his sister to be meeting a patient’s relative from Sundara.

If her mentor was also from Sundara, his sister’s safety might genuinely be at risk.

Just looking at the two imposing guards at the door proved his point.

They were clearly bodyguards from

Sundara, and one look

had seen their fair share o

him they violence

Alarm bells were already ringing in Dewitt’s head.

Meanwhile, Meiko Fujii entered the room and updated her mentor on Claire’s arrival.

“Mentor, she brought her cousin. What do you think?”

The mentor kept his face hidden, but a constant coughing came from beneath the blankets.

“Let her in. The person she brought waits outside.”

“Make some arrangements to take her cousin out for a bit of fun. Let him relax.”

Meiko Fujii understood immediately. “Understood.”

She was just about to leave when her mentor stopped her again. “Wait!”

Meiko Fujii halted. “Mentor, do you have any other instructions?”
