Chapter 859: Staring at a monster
"Mr. Zhang, where is this place? Are you okay?"
Dane blinked ever so slowly as he shifted his gaze to where the voice came from. Ivy was still in the last step of the stairs, looking at him with eyes full of uncertainty and determination.
"In my home," he answered, causing creases on her forehead.
"Your home?" Ivy repeated, looking around the surroundings. "This is yours? Not Dominic?"
"Dominic Zhu won’t buy something like this. I thought you’d know that by now."
"Uhm..." she cleared her throat and rocked her head. "It already crossed my mind, but I didn’t expect that you’d own this place."
She didn’t know exactly Dane’s payslip, but considering his position in the Lyon Group, she was certain he was paid justly. However, even if Ivy exaggerated Dane’s earnings, she didn’t think he would be able to afford a castle. Unless this castle was sold cheap or Dane hadn’t spent a dime since working for Dominic, that was the only way he could afford such.
"Miss Wei, you should rest more." Dane’s calm voice brought her back to the current lapse, looking back at his vantage point on instinct. He slowly rose from his seat, eyes still on her. "Or are you hungry?"
Ivy huffed as her expression turned solemn. "I don’t think I have the time or appetite to eat anything at the moment, Mr. Zhang. Have you contacted Dom?"
