Chapter 1489: Are You Following Me?

Tristan didn't speak. He simply held Monica's shoulders and led her tothe passenger side of the car. He opened the door for her, allowing herto sit inside.

Monica also remained silent, obediently getting into the car. She reallywanted to ask him, what did Claire's aunt want from him? Why did hehave to lie? Was it because he cared about her, that's why he lied?Tristan closed the car door, walked around the vehicle, and got into thedriver's seat. He didn't fasten his seatbelt and didn't seem to plan onstarting the car. He knew that she must have seen something andmisunderstood.

As Tristan gathered his thoughts, he turned to look at her, his tonesincere, "First, I'll tell you why I was here."

Monica had been staring at her fingers, embarrassed to the point ofwanting to vanish into thin air! But at his words, she looked up abruptly!Was he... voluntarily explaining?

Tristan averted his gaze, speaking calmly with a clear conscience, "Iwas supposed to go to a company meeting, but she called me, said shewanted to talk to me, and it wouldn't take too long."

Monica listened in silence, looking at his handsome profile. Shewondered, was he reporting to her? And in what capacity was shelistening?

Tristan continued, "So we agreed to have a coffee. Naturally, shewanted to talk about Claire's affairs. She wanted to entrust Claire tome."

Tristan's candidness made the girl's heart thump hard. She fell silent fora moment, then tried to ask him, "So, what did you say?"

Tristan looked at her, meeting her nervous and expectant gaze. Heraised an eyebrow, "She's not an object to be handed over to me forsafekeeping, what else could I say? Obviously, I refused.”

She was genuinely scared! Monica maintained a calm exterior, butinside, she heaved a sigh of relief. Her breathing returned to normal,and her mood inexplicably improved a lot.

"Okay, now I ask you, were you following me?" Tristan looked at her,his tone indifferent, not like he was joking. Faced with his scrutinizinggaze, Monica felt his demeanor become colder. He was waiting for ananswer, and it seemed he disliked being followed.

"Of course not!" Rather than being misunderstood by him, Monicaconfessed directly, “There's a boutique next door, that's where mynavigation led me."

Tristan glanced back and asked her, "What do you need to buy?" Didn'the believe her?

"I..." Monica cleared her throat, "Didn't you get so many dolls? I'mlooking for a storage box, a transparent one, cylindrical, about twometers high. It doesn't take up much space and it looks good!" Shegestured with her hand to illustrate.

Tristan stared at her for a few seconds. She didn't seem to be lying, sohe opened the door and got out of the car again.

Monica was a little puzzled. What was he doing? He walked around thecar, opened the door for her, "Come on, I'll accompany you to buy it."He was serious.

She hesitated for a second and then got out of the car. As soon as shedid, Tristan's phone rang. As he closed the car door, he pulled out hisphone, glanced at the caller ID, and answered, "Hello, Kevin." Hehugged Monica's shoulders, indicating for her to start walking with him.She didn't know what Kevin was saying to him, but Tristan didn't stophis steps towards the boutique. With one hand holding the phone andthe other in his pocket, he said, "You start the meeting first, I havesomething to do right now, and it will probably take half an hour to getto the company.”

"Where are you? This has been postponed again and again.” Kevinsounded helpless, he was getting overwhelmed.

But Tristan hung up the phone without giving any explanation.
