💞Love from a Distance: A Tale of Unexpected Connection💞
💞Chapter 25💞
Ryan's POV
"Okay," she said as she picked up her phone to dial her chauffeur's number to inform him to pick her up. After telling him the location, she hung up the call.
"Liela, be a good girl. These are my last words to you," I said with an unhappy smile.
"I hope we meet again in the future. This is mine to you," she said.
A few minutes later, her chauffeur arrived and I walked her to the car. She hugged me and whispered "bye" before entering the car, which then drove away.
"Once you find out who's behind this mask, I'm sure you'll hate me, Liela. And it doubles because I'm unworthy of you," I said, sighing, and went back to my Rolls Royce before it drove away alongside the other cars.
I was in a bad mood this morning, but when we met and talked, it was incredible. I never thought I could get hurt when I saw you cry. You took over my thoughts with that, and I found myself surprised when I became gentler towards you.
"Liela, I hope you forget that Diego doesn't exist anymore," I said.
Liela's POV
"So who is this man? And why is he covered from head to toe?" Mr. Lucas asked.
"He's...He happens to be a client and we talked about business stuff," I said, hoping he believed the lies.
"Then why hug your client?"
"Because he said he was going to buy the product," I said.
"When did you start a business, Liela?" he questioned, as if he knew I was lying and waiting for me to tell the truth.
"Since I got to school, I started it," I said.
"Okay, I won't continue anymore. Let's just say he is a client," he said.
"He is a client," I corrected, and he sighed and said nothing again.
He drove me home and I came out of the car and headed to the house. Opening the door, I saw my mum still watching TV.
"You're back," she said.
"Yes, mum, I'll go to my room now," I said as I quickly went up and stopped when I heard her ask, "How was the arcade?" So I shouted, "It was fine," and went upstairs. I shut the door and jumped on my bed. "I should record this moment of my life," I said as I took a note and wrote down everything that happened to me today.

Ryan's POV
The cars drove to a high skyscraper and entered the compound to park at the parking lot. The door was opened and I came down and entered the building with my guards. As soon as the workers sighted me, they greeted me saying, "Young master, welcome." Dad's secretary came to me and said, "Sir, this way," and I followed him to the IT room.
"Sir, there are some major issues in the operating system, we would love for you to check them out," a staff said as I came to check the system. I conduct thorough testing, monitoring,analysis to pinpoint any weak points or bottle necks in the system with the other experts.
