Mrs. An Lu, who was already lifting her hand to push the door and enter, stood frozen in her tracks.
Not in?
Who's talking if no one is in?
Could it be your cousin, Jason?
The lady took a deep breath, allowing the smile on her face to appear less stiff, before she knocked on the door again.
Thud!
Thud, thud!
Clearly, the lady put considerable strength into the knocking this time.
The door creaked open halfway.
Revealing Jason, sitting at the dining table inside.
Likewise, Jason saw Mrs. An Lu with a smile on her face.
"Lord Gerard, there are some matters I would like to discuss with you."
"May I come in?"
The lady asked again.
Jason wanted to refuse.
But he had not forgotten that at this moment, he was playing the role of Gerard.
Gerard would not do such a thing.
Suppressing the irritation deep within.
Jason nodded.
"You may."
Seeing Jason's consent, the lady immediately walked in and, turning around, was about to close the door.
"There's no need."
