The Pretender and The Prince novel Chapter 35

At seven that evening, Ondine was at the school gate. She saw the familiar Toyota and walked over.

Zeke opened the door for her. “Ms. Sterling, please.”

The back seat was empty.

“Mr. Thorne is waiting for you up ahead,” Zeke explained. “I’ll take you to him.”

Ondine nodded and got in. On the way, she decided to ask. “Zeke, the day we went to get the license, did Seth ask you to drive this car to pick me up?”

“Yes, he did,” Zeke said with a slightly embarrassed smile. “Mr. Thorne usually takes his own car. This old thing of mine… I was a little worried he wouldn’t be comfortable in it.”

“Did he say why?”

“No, and I didn’t dare to ask.”

It seemed her guess was right. Seth had done it intentionally. As for why, only he knew the answer.

The car stopped in an open-air parking lot a few minutes later.

“Ms. Sterling, I’ll take you to Mr. Thorne now,” Zeke said, opening her door.

“Thank you.” Ondine got out of the car. A familiar Maybach was parked nearby.
