Real Heiress: Flash Marriage With Boyfriend's Uncle

Varya was taken aback when she spotted Roger at the airport. She quickly stood up from her chair, her brows furrowing in surprise.

Without preamble, Roger extended a paper bag toward her. "Here, this is for you."

She looked at him, bewildered. "What’s this?"

"A small gift," he said with a casual shrug. "It’s your first time in Italy, right? A souvenir is a must."

Varya hesitated for a moment before accepting the bag. "Thank you. This means a lot," she admitted before narrowing her eyes at him. "But don’t get any ideas—I’m not giving you any kind of signal by accepting this."

Roger nodded. "Don’t worry. I don’t chase after women who reject me."

Varya felt a pang of guilt, wondering if she had hurt his feelings. "I’m sorry, Roger," she said softly. "But I think our worlds are just too different."

"Yeah, I know," Roger replied, his tone calm and accepting. Then, with a small smile, he added, "Thank you for helping us in Russia. Without you, taking down the Romanovs would’ve been a lot more difficult."

Varya gave a small nod. "I’m glad I could be of help."

Just then, the announcement for her flight to Moscow echoed through the terminal. She took a deep breath. "I have to go."

Roger gave her a curt nod. "Yeah. Sure. Have a safe journey."
