After eating, Tassach used the excuse of still having work to do to leave but was stopped by Mrs. Conduibh. She said, âTassach, Gracie only returned today. Sheâs not familiar with the surroundings, so show her around.â
Before Tassach had the chance to refuse, Gracie smiled and said, âTassach, I came back today, and Iâm not familiar with this place. Would you mind showing me around?â
Tassach was about to refuse but could only hold back. âUncle and aunt, I can give you a ride back along the way.â
Mr. and Mrs. King shook their heads at the same time and said, âYou two can go ahead. You young people probably have a lot of things to chat about.
We old people wonât bother you.â
Mrs. Conduibh was happy about the scene in front of her. âYoung people should get together. Tassach, be nice to Gracie.â
Tassach nodded.
After the two got in the car, Gracie was no longer gentle and became graceful and dignified instead. âTassach, you donât like me?â
Tassach frowned. He did not like Gracieâs change of attitude.
âMiss King, youâre overthinking it. Itâs our first time meeting each other. I canât say that I like or dislike you. Iâm only treating you as the daughter of a highly respectable family,â Tassach said in a relaxed manner. The elders were not there, so he did not need to pretend.
Gracie smiled and said, âTassach, you didnât want the Conduibh Group and instead chose to start your own company. From only five people to dozens of people with the number still slowly increasing, I respect your courage and Iâm very interested in you as a person. My parents took me to your place today not only to visit an old friend, but also to initiate a romantic relationship between us. Iâm sure someone smart like you could tell. If you donât mind, I think we can give it a try.â
âI do mind,â Tassach refused directly.
Gracie gave him a surprised look and said, âWhy? Give me a reason. Am I not pretty enough?â
Tassach shook his head and said, âNo, Miss King is very beautiful, more beautiful than many celebrities and models, but I already have someone in my heart. Her appearance and family background may be slightly worse than Miss Kingâs, but Iâm not interested in any women other than her.â
Gracie smiled confidently and said, âIs she your girlfriend?â
âNo, Iâm pursuing her.â
âSo, I still have a chance?â
âMiss King, you change so quickly. Youâre a harmless good girl in front of the elders and a confident fashion girl in front of outsiders.â Tassach changed the subject.
Gracie fluffed up her beautiful long hair and said, âMy parents want me to be good and obedient, so Iâll be a good girl in front of them.â
Tassach said, âIt seems that Miss King is a filial daughter.â
âIâm their only child, so I canât let them down. But being a good girl is boring after a while,â Gracie said.
Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something and said, âTassach, I donât know what type of girl you like?â
Tassach said, âNot your type.â
The smile on Gracieâs face disappeared a little bit. She said, âTassach, thatâs not gentlemanly of you at all. There are quite a lot of men pursuing a beautiful woman like me. But Iâm really interested in you. The more you reject me, the more I want to pursue you. Iâm determined to pursue you. Just you wait.â
âWoman, has anyone told you that being too open will only scare men away? Men like to conquer, not to be conquered, understand?â
Just when Gracie wanted to say something, Tassach suddenly turned the steering wheel that Gracie almost fell forward due to inertia.
âTassach, what are you doing?â
Tassach unfastened his seat belt, opened the door, and got out of the car. He then ran towards a woman.
âOphelia, whatâs the matter with you? Why is your whole body wet?â Tassach nervously looked at the wet Ophelia from head to toe. He asked, âAre you hurt anywhere?â
Ophelia looked at Tassach, who looked as if he descended from the sky, and said, âTassach, why are you here?â
âTell me first. Whatâs the matter with you? Are you injured?â Tassach asked anxiously.
Ophelia flicked her wet hair without carelessly and replied, âIâm fine. A bitch thought I was the other woman and splashed water all over me. She ran out of the psychiatric hospital that she was originally staying in. Unfortunately for me, I came across her. And you see the result right here.â
Tassach was at a loss for words that she could still joke and laugh. âWhy didnât you call me? You really didnât get hurt? Is the child okay? How about I take you to the hospital?â

âTassach, arenât you going to introduce her?â Ophelia finally saw Gracie standing behind Tassach and joked, âYour girlfriend?â
