Chapter 53: 54、You in the Depths of Memory

“Wait, let me make a phone call to the little one at home!”

Ivy Aretha shook off Michael Gordon’s hand that was dragging her, and called Bianca Aretha to inform her about the out-of-town trip, asked her to behave, and then instructed Cathy about some precautions.

The little one was quite obedient and didn’t have any complaints. Hearing about the trip, she asked if Ivy was going with her handsome boss uncle.

Ivy stammered without mentioning anything, and the little girl giggled over the phone.

“Mummy, I’ll be good. Good luck!” The little one cheerfully blew her a kiss through the phone, paused for a moment, and then made a funny face. “Mummy, don’t be too reserved since you are going out. Some opportunities will be gone if you miss them!”

Ivy Aretha: “…”

She was just informing the child about the trip, yet the little one was speaking all these unnecessary words.

After hanging up the phone, Ivy looked up and met Michael Gordon’s focused and passionate eyes. Her heart raced, and her face stiffened, “Let’s go, we’re in a hurry, aren’t we?”

While saying that, Ivy felt quite flustered, as if she were doing something guilty.

Michael Gordon’s eyebrows furrowed unnaturally, staring at her and asked, “Who is that child to you?”

“My daughter!” Ivy Aretha snapped and rolled her eyes at him.

The more she said it as if it were only natural, the more Michael Gordon disbelieved her.

“Daughter?” Michael Gordon reached out to take the bag from her hand. “Why don’t you say she’s your granddaughter?”

Knowing that she wouldn’t tell the truth, Michael Gordon continued his inquiry while holding her bag and started to walk away. “I heard her calling you auntie. Is she a child of your relative?”

“This is my personal matter, and I can refuse to answer!”

Ivy Aretha quickly kept up with his pace, and someone was already coming to help them with their luggage!

When the driver dropped them off at the airport, it was just in time for boarding. Naturally, Michael Gordon’s business trip was in first-class. As soon as Ivy got on the airplane, she saw a fashionably-dressed beautiful woman staring at Michael Gordon with love-struck eyes.

Her round eyes seemed to be popping out of her head.

“I want the window seat!”

Ivy immediately grabbed the window seat of the two available, and before Michael Gordon could react, she was already seated.

Looking at her bandit-like behaviour, Michael Gordon was stunned for a full three minutes before he understood what was happening.

“Mr. Gordon, it’s been a while, what a coincidence to meet you here!”

Hearing the sound, he realized that in the double-seater VIP area opposite them was a woman with ulterior motives. No wonder Ivy acted so quickly to take the window seat. Was she afraid of being disturbed, or was she acting according to her intuition?

Without responding to the unexpected encounter, Michael Gordon glanced at Ivy Aretha, who was already closing her eyes and pretending to sleep in her seat, and bent down to help her buckle her seatbelt.

In the split second he bent down, Ivy reflexively opened her eyes. “What are you trying to do?!”

Heh, Michael Gordon glanced at her, pointed to the seatbelt in his hand, and couldn’t help but chuckle quietly. “What do you think I’m trying to do?”

Ivy only heard her heart thumping, her face instantly burning hot. She turned her head away awkwardly, not daring to look at him again. “I didn’t sleep well last night, I’ll take a nap now. Just wake me up when we arrive!”

Michael Gordon’s gaze lingered on her pretending to sleep face further, the corner of his lips hooking into a beguiling smile. This woman was becoming more and more interesting. Sometimes she was extremely guarded against him, afraid of him getting close to her, and could be alarmed by a single movement, just like before.

But sometimes, she was very trusting of him, like now, boarding the airplane without even asking where it was flying to.

Recalling the old lady next door last night saying that she couldn’t come home and tricked her out, what else could be the plan? Michael Gordon’s wicked smile deepened…

He had thought it would take some effort to trick her out, but things had gone so smoothly!

“Mr. Gordon, are you also heading to Andara City?”

The woman, who was speaking to him earlier, took the opportunity to approach him again.

Michael Gordon frowned, looked at her, and saw an almost unfamiliar face underneath her heavy, smoky makeup. Even her original facial features were barely recognizable due to the makeup. The strong Chanel scent could not cover up the nouveau riche vibes in her bones.

Where had he seen her before? Michael Gordon searched his memory but couldn’t recall. “Who are you?”

Hearing his question, the woman’s face stiffened and then she spoke awkwardly: “I am Karis York; we had a blind date last year!”

Karis York? A blind date?

It took Michael Gordon a while to remember that he was indeed forced to go on a blind date with a Miss York last year. He had refused her because she was ugly, and was even scolded by Calvin Gordon, who asked him what kind of beauty he wanted!

He didn’t know what kind of beauty he wanted at the time, but now he knew. Michael Gordon glanced at the sleeping face beside him, his heart filled with warmth and laughter. It had to be like her!

“Miss York, please forgive me. I have a terrible memory and often forget things. Please excuse me!”

Michael Gordon politely nodded to her as a form of greeting.

“Who is she?” Karis York’s gaze fell on Ivy Aretha beside him. Michael Gordon’s movements were quite noticeable. It was clear to anyone with discerning eyes that their relationship was extraordinary. “Your girlfriend?”

“Not at all!” Michael Gordon said modestly, “She’s the person I’m trying to pursue with all my heart and effort!”

Karis York’s smile froze. Hearing these words from Michael Gordon was as incredible as a myth, even more than the sun rising from the west. After all, there was no woman in Andras City that Michael Gordon couldn’t get!

For men, Michael was considered God’s favourite, while for women, he was their ultimate goal. So when Karis found out that he was being forced to go on blind dates by his family, she used quite a bit of connections and got to have a blind date with him. However, the result was quite disastrous. Not only did she fail, but he also couldn’t remember who she was even after asking him several times!

She never expected that one day she would hear the words ‘pursue’ with ‘heart and effort’ from this man. So who exactly was this pure-looking woman who could make Michael Gordon use these two words to describe her? What kind of identity and beauty did she possess?

“She’s really lucky!”

Karis York just nodded her head, choosing to remain silent since she knew she had no chance. Michael Gordon hated clingy women. If she couldn’t be his favourite, at least she should avoid being disliked.

After the plane landed in Andara, Ivy Aretha was woken up by Michael Gordon and dragged through twists and turns to the most remote and desolate ancient town in Andara. By the time they arrived, it was past dinner time.

Looking at the pitch-dark, desolate ancient town, Ivy Aretha had an eerie feeling and felt as if she had been tricked!
