Zina was talking to Kellan when she suddenly sensed someone staring at her.
She followed the gaze and met a pair of cold, piercing eyes; it was Rosie.
‘What’s gotten into her? Zina thought, frowning as Rosie’s stare grew even more intense.

“Dad, it’s about time for us to head back. Next time, I’ll come visit you on my own,” Kellan said, breaking the
tension.
“Go on. Zina’s a good girl. Make sure you treat her well, Patrick replied, his eyes full of reluctance as he saw them off.
On the drive home, Zina kept her eyes fixed on Kellan. It wasn’t until Kellan noticed that he pulled the car over and turned to look at Zina. “Why are you staring at me like that?” he asked.
“I’m just curious. Don’t you ever suspect there might be something between me and Kyle? After all, we were together for quite a long time,” Zina said softly.
Kellan burst out laughing. “I’m not as dumb as Kyle. I trust your taste. Now that you have me, you wouldn’t even look at him.”

In the end, Zina just fell silent, quietly accepting what he said.
As they were about to part ways, Kellan suddenly spoke up. “When the jewelry show comes around, I’ll come pick you up.”
“No need,” Zina replied instinctively, but then she felt a bit uneasy. After all, this wasn’t really her place.
But Kellan seemed to know exactly what she was thinking and finished her sentence for her.
“Don’t worry. Just give me any address you want, and I’ll come find you. It’s settled then. Go on, head back.” With that, Kellan drove off, not giving Zina a chance to say another word.
Zina could only grumble inwardly, ‘He’s so damn stubborn.‘
Rolling her eyes, Zina headed to the garage, got in her car, and drove straight back to the Lambert Villa.
“Zina, you’re back?” Yvonne called out gently as she saw Zina walk in. She looked hesitant, like she wanted to say something but couldn’t quite get the words out.
“I heard from your dad that you’re thinking about getting married. The Carter family might not be the best place for you.
