Holding her phone, Zoe walked barefoot into the closet. Mason’s
voice came from behind.
“You never let your phone out of your sight. Are you worried I’ll see something I shouldn’t? Did you add some new eye candy to your contacts list again?”
In the closet, Zoe picked out an outfit to change into. She spoke softly, “What secrets could I have? Hucksburgh is your stronghold, right? Returning to a familiar place should bring back some memories, right?”
There was a slight twinge in Mason’s heart. He followed her, leaning against the door and gazing at her serene appearance.
He couldn’t help but say, “I have no improper relationship with her. I haven’t touched her. That photo was taken by her without my knowledge.”

Zoe bypassed him to go to the bathroom. “Would you rather I go bare- legged under the coat dress?”
Mason frowned. “Don’t you have something thicker?”
While Zoe was washing up, she looked up, locking eyes with Mason in the mirror. After a moment, she said softly, “Mason, if you’re not satisfied, I’ll remember to wear something thicker next time. After all, I still rely on you to help my brother with the lawsuit. I wouldn’t dare offend you.”

Her radiant appearance tempted Mason.
His breath became uneven, but he couldn’t bear to shift his gaze away. He simply watched her from a distance, feeling satisfied.
There seemed to be a soft spot in his heart.
Mason knew he was falling for Zoe.
Just when he couldn’t control his emotions, his phone in his pocket rang. It was Ava calling.
Mason glanced at Zoe again, unaware that this would be the last time he would see her perform so wonderfully, immersed in her passion for classical music, shining brightly.
He answered Ava’s call.
