Chapter 550

Jenkins was completely baffled by these words.

“What car?”

As she pondered, she heard Susan say, “At that moment, you were all that was on his mind. People can summon greater strength under extreme conditions.”

Those words deeply touched Peter.

He wanted to reach out and hold Susan’s hand, to express his sentiment, but as he stretched out his hand, he realized he was holding all those bags.

Peter could only sheepishly withdraw his hand and entered the bridal shop with his hands full.

Meanwhile, Keira had also arrived at Scott’s temporary residence in Clance,

Although it was said to be temporary, the place turned out to be a manor, fully furnished and clearly well–maintained all year round.

And by the looks of the butler at the entrance, it could be discerned that this was indeed the Martin family’s property.

While Keira and the butler were heading inside, Scott and Erin came out to greet her.

As the two of them came out the door, Scott smiled. “If she’s willing to come here, she must fancy me a little.”

Erin rolled her eyes. “You’re overthinking it. I think she’s even more interested in me than you.”

Scott said, “How could that be? She’s not into women!”

Erin said, “But I feel like she came for Vera. Didn’t she ask if Vera was here before she came?”

Scott said, “That’s just her being polite, knowing that I chose Vera to avoid this arranged marriage…”

Erin was speechless.

The two were talking as they greeted the guests, and they immediately spotted “Keera” and Lewis by her side.

The joyous expression on Scott’s face suddenly stiffened.

He twitched the corners of his mouth and then stepped forward, extending his hand to Keira. “Miss Olsen, welcome to my house!”

Keira was going to take his hand out of politeness when Lewis abruptly stepped forward, blocking her path, and firmly shook Scott’s hand. “Mr. Martin, I hope you don’t mind my uninvited visit. Today, I am merely Miss Olsen’s driver.”

After saying that, he deliberately glanced at Keira.

Keira didn’t know what to say.

This guy couldn’t wait to stake his claim.

She then looked toward Erin.
