S2| 23. Too Risky For Heart

Hearing Julian's report, Greta spontaneously checked the girl's condition. “Mia, are you okay?”

Instead of answering, the secretary sat up and shook her head, collecting consciousness.

"Mia?" the man sighed while raising an eyebrow, hoping the girl would respond soon.

“I'm fine, Sir,” Mia replied, still with the corners of her lips held high.

“Then, why did you suddenly laugh?” Julian inquired while observing the look in the secretary's eyes from a closer distance.

A second later, the girl's smile began to turn flat. "Nothing, Sir," she said, shaking her head.

Without a word, the man looked at his aunt who then shrugged.

"How about you take her home? I'll catch up when I'm done returning all the horses to the stables?” Greta suggested to her nephew.

"All right," Julian said curtly. Without further ado, he stood up and picked up the secretary with his strong arms.
