Chapter 803 A Mysterious Joy
Suddenly, the door opened.
It was Quan who came in with Kayla. When he saw the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa, he smiled politely and greeted him. "Hello, Mr. Marsh."
In response, Mr. Marsh nodded slightly.
Then, Quan walked up to Jara and said in a low voice, "Mr. Holland, I've brought her here."
Raising his head, Jara looked at her and responded. "Mmm."
"You may leave now."
"Okay."
Hearing that, Quan left respectfully.
Meanwhile, Kayla stood there and was a little confused.
At first, she thought that Jara was only looking for her alone, so she was excited. But now, it was obvious that he had a guest.
At this time, why did he ask her to come here?
Kayla wasn't so arrogant to think that Jara would bring her along with him to socialize with his guests. After all, in his eyes, she was nobody, much less his woman.
Then why did he summon her here?
With doubt in mind, Kayla raised her head and looked at Jara.
At the same time, he was also looking at her up and down, with a faint smile on his face and a mysterious spark in his eyes.
For some reason, her heart missed a beat.
Inexplicably, she had a bad feeling about this.
At this moment, another man too raised his head to look at her.
"This is..."
Because of the angle toward the door, Kayla currently had her back at him.
Therefore, he couldn't her face.
With a smile, Jara greeted her. "Kayla, do pay your respects to Mr. Marsh."
Hearing that, Kayla was stunned.
Kayla? This was the first time Jara had called her by her name.
Somehow, she felt a little flurried subconsciously, but more than that, she felt a sense of joy mysteriously.
Following that, she responded in a crisp voice, then turned around and looked at the man behind her.
When she saw the man in front of her, she was stunned.
Initially, she thought that Jara's friends were all from the underworld and that they would definitely be crude and harsh.
Unexpectedly, the man sitting on the sofa was a middle-aged man with glasses and a delicate appearance, completely looking like a scholar.
While she was sizing him up, he was doing the same.
Different from the shock and doubt she had, Mr. Marsh's eyes had a surprising look!
Obviously, Jara noticed his expression, and a hint of satisfaction flashed across the depths of his eyes.
By this time, Kayla had already came around.
Immediately, she greeted him in a sweet voice, "Hello, Mr. Marsh."
There was no response from him.
He was staring at her as if he was spellbound and did not even react when she called him.
Feeling a little uneasy, she turned to Jara, only to see that he was looking at her with encouragement.
Without a choice, she turned around and called out, "Mr. Marsh?"
This time, he finally came to his senses.
He seemed to have realized that he had lost his composure, so right away, with a change in expression, he replied, "Sorry, I have lost my composure. This lady is..."
As he spoke, he turned to look at Jara.
Slightly curling his lips, Jara said with a smile, "She's a guest I rescued previously and is temporarily staying in the castle. However, she's from Ascijan and I'm planning to send her back in the future."
"Ascijan?"
Upon hearing that, Luca was shocked.
This time, Kayla was also shocked.
What? Sent her back?
Didn't he say that he would not send her off again? But now...
Immediately, Kayla became anxious and spoke in a hurry. "Mr. Holland, I can't go back. I have told you before, I..."
However, before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by a cold look from Jara.
Looking at her, his gaze was cold and stern, coupled with a hint of warning.
All of a sudden, Kayla's words froze in her throat.
At this time, Luca came around.
Realizing that he didn't understand what they were saying, he asked, "What are you talking about? Why can't this young lady go back?"
Hearing that, Jara smiled faintly.
"She is from Ascijan. The reason why she came here was that she escaped from marriage. I heard that her father wanted to marry her to an old man because of the failure of his family business. At the time, she couldn't accept it so she ran away. Unexpectedly, she was captured by a human trafficker and got slightly injured. I happened to meet her coincidentally, so I saved her."
Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something and laughed with embarrassment.
"You also know that I like tranquility. I don't like to have women around me. But since I've saved her, I can't leave her alone. So I'm going to send someone to send her back. As for what will happen after she's back, it's none of my business."
When Kayla heard this, her face turned pale immediately.
On the other hand, Luca frowned as he listened to what was going on.
"If it is really like what you said, then you shouldn't really send her back."
As soon as he said that, Kayla seemed to have found her savior, so she nodded desperately in agreement.
"Yes. Mr. Holland, since you've saved me, please be a good person to the end. As long as you don't send me home, I can do anything."
However, Jara looked at her and didn't say anything.
Meanwhile, Luca felt a little awkward, but at the same time, some kind of feelings were brewing in his heart.
With a smile, he said, "Jara, since she said so, why don't you show kindness again? Don't send her away."
As he was speaking, he looked at Kayla up and down again, then continued. "After all, it's a pity for such a beautiful young lady to marry an old man."
Hearing that, Jara raised his eyebrows.
When Kayla saw that someone was finally willing to speak up for her, she tried even harder to plead for herself, and tears started rolling down her cheeks uncontrollably.
"Mr. Holland, Jara, I am begging you, please don't send me away. Please."
Anyone who heard her pitiful voice and the poor look on her face would have been moved.
Looking at her, Luca's gaze deepened a little as his expression changed slightly.
Seeing everything that played out in front of him, Jara let out a laugh after a moment.
"Well, since Mr. Marsh has spoken, I shall reluctantly take you in for a while, but you have to remember that this is for the sake of Mr. Marsh."
Hearing that, Kayla was stunned.
Somehow, she had a feeling that Jara was implying something when he said this.
Nonetheless, she didn't understand what he meant.
However, she turned toward Luca obediently and expressed her gratitude.
"Thank you, Mr. Marsh."
Seeing that, Luca was a little stunned.
Looking at the beautiful lady in front of him, he was amazed by her eyes, her aura, and her gentle voice.
Through her, he seemed to have seen another person who had the same temperament, looking at him with her gentle and concerned eyes and calling at him repeatedly.
"Luca, Luca..."
Luca felt that his heart was almost trembling.
However, he disguised it well. At least, Kayla didn't see any sign of him losing his composure.
