A hint of confusion flickered in Simon Adler's eyes. His expression hadn't changed at all, so how could she tell he was lying?
'Does this girl have a Mind Reading Technique or something?'
'No, no.'
'After getting to know her a bit, she's as cunning as a little fox.'
'She's probably just trying to bluff me.'
As if she had read his mind again, Mia Grant chuckled and took a step back, putting some distance between them.
"If you don't tell the truth, it's not just that I won't go with you."
Mia Grant had gotten her nails done for the engagement party. The long, delicate pink nails drew a playful and cute arc in the air as she pointed at him.
"You too."
Simon Adler's brow relaxed slightly. He had no idea what little trick she was about to pull.
The next second, he heard her issue a completely non-lethal threat in the softest voice imaginable: "You won't be leaving today either."
