The Traps of the Black Swan

155

"Thank you for the amazing evening." Ruby Jane modestly bowed her head, her voice did sound gratified but it clearly wasn't suiting the situation. Hence her taunt hit both the men where it should hurt.

Ruby Jane merely brushed her eyes on Hayden and looked at Lisa. Seeing him take a step towards her, Ruby Jane was afraid he might try to keep hold of her. She wanted to be alone and didn't want to argue with him on anything so she instinctively ran out.

She definitely looked like a bride running away from her groom.

Before Lisa could realize what triggered her, she got into the Maybach, drove towards the main gate honking repeatedly to open the gates, and sped away.

Lisa who ran out noticed her speeding, he was ready to give her time but at the same time, he was afraid too. He didn't want her to have the same fate as his mother.

If in case she starts crying while driving, he couldn't even imagine the circumstances.

Melia who ran out behind him urged, "Young Master, please bring Miss back. Young Master..."

Looking at the situation, the security head of the mansion took Lisa's cue and sent a few to get the cars out of the garage to follow Ruby Jane. He also quickly called the team to trace where Ruby Jane was going.

Lisa noticed Hayden trembling while watching everything cluelessly, "Are you happy now, President Kim?" He scoffed, clenching his teeth, clutching his fist so tight that his knuckles turned pale and the nerves started protruding.

Hayden gazed down. Lisa had clearly told him Ruby Jane wouldn't like to meet him. He even mentioned, Ruby Jane will see him when the time comes but of course, the old generation had their old age as a reason to argue and have their way.

Lisa stood in front of Hayden who had almost the same height as him but his old age or his desolation didn't affect his strong bearing.

"As far as I know, Jennie admired you. What did you do that she didn't want to be in contact with you?" Lisa coldly asked.

Jennie was closer to Hayden than Zain till her age of fourteen. At that time Zain was in boarding school and he hardly met her.

As far as Lisa knew, she got along really well with her cousin once he completed his studies and Ruby Jane got her first mobile.

If Ruby Jane could meet Zain, why didn't she meet Hayden who loves her so much? "What are you hiding?"

She had repeatedly tried to escape from Lisa to reach Hayden at Kim International after waking up from comatose. Then why isn't she meeting him?

Why was she adamant about killing her own self? Was it really to avenge Seungri with a new name? Then why did she ignore her grandfather and company?

The questions were never-ending but Lisa was sure there was something linking to Hayden that was causing Ruby Jane to avoid him.

All the maids had rushed out hearing the noise. They witnessed Ruby Jane running away so they uneasily stood looking at two men waiting for Melia to call or instruct them.

Lisa noticed Hayden in deep thought. He assumed Hayden was thinking the reason behind his granddaughter's unwillingness to meet him whereas Hayden felt his suspicion might be true.

The two cars drove out of the mansion and Lisa's car halted in front of him. The driver got off aware Lisa wanted to drive himself.

Lisa left as he pointed Hayden for him. It was a silent instruction to drop Hayden at his destination.

By the time Hayden could react Lisa left the mansion in search of Ruby Jane who didn't have her mobile.

Hayden saw a low-end car halt in front of him and looked at Melia who was worriedly looking towards the gate. He was happy to know they were treating his granddaughter well.
