NovelEnglishChapter 352: Hed been convinced that Gordon had harbored intentions for a long time.
But seeing Allisons calm expression, he knew that nothing had happened between them. It was just old friends catching up.
He realized that he had been overly concerned and sensitive.
Kellan mocked himself silently.
He was losing his grip.
He had no official standing in her life.
Even if Allison did something with someone else, he had no right to care.
Yet Gordons words lingered in his mind: It doesnt matter if youre married.
Titles mean nothing to me.
I just want to stay by your side.
They had felt both ironic and, in sway, threatening.
They reached the garage before long.
Ill drive you back to Muisvedo, Kellan offered.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlright, thank you, Mr.
Lloyd.
No need to be so formal, Ms.
Clarke, he said, closing the umbrella and opening the car door for her.
After starting the car, Kellan noticed Allison hugging her arms.
He adjusted the heat a little higher.
Its fine, she murmured.
Allison found his attentiveness unexpectedly comforting.
As the warm air gradually filled the car, she no longer felt as cold.
Do you have any plans for tomorrow? she asked, placing her purse on her lap.
Reclining in the passenger seat, Allison felt herself growing drowsy.
Kellans voice softened.
Nothing in particular.
If you need help with anything, just letknow.
Its not help I need, really.
I was thinking of taking stoff.
Working all day isnt exactly fun.
Mr.
Welsh called earlier, said he misses me, and wantsto visit Athton.
He even suggested I bring you along.
Allison couldnt help but feel a bit resigned at the thought.
The old man could be like a child sometimes.
But it was true they hadnt seen each other in a while.
Smiling, she teased, I honestly dont know how you managed to get along with Mr.
Welsh.
He used to dislike cold and distant people.
When they parted ways in Athton last time, Emanuel had given Kellan so many gifts.
Despite his tough exterior, it was clear he didnt want Kellan to leave.

Do you think Im cold and distant? Allison chuckled softly.
Sometimes you are.
After all, people at the company say youre quite aloof.
But in reality, after spending twith him, she found that Kellan was relaxed and familiar with those close to him. He wasnt truly cold or unapproachable.
She thought for a moment, then added, Oh, by the way, lets bring Lorna along.
Shes got talent, and Emanuel appreciates talent.
Hell definitely like her.
Kellan nodded.
It would be good for her to get out and relax.
As they chatted, the rain outside intensified.
Yet, inside the car, their intermittent conversation felt peaceful, the m atmosphere calm and comforting. Kellan had been so busy lately that it was wearing him down.
In the past, no matter how hectic work got, he would just cut down on sleep and throw himself into thrilling competitions to calm the restlessness in his blood. He didnt need to go anywhere to find peace.
