MRS. RAYNE : LADY ROSE KESAYANGAN TUAN RAYNE | C

CHAPTER 30 : I'LL FIND YOU.

"Thank you for having us, Aunty Lorraine and Uncle Bernard."

"My pleasure, Rose. And I hope to see you again."

"Of course, we will see her again after this.... But as Mrs. Rayne!." Jawab Uncle Bernard dengan gembira sambil memandang ke arah lelaki itu.

"I love it, Grandpa Bernard!." Balas Isaac Shiloh dengan gembira.

Ian Rayne hanya mendiamkan dirinya sahaja. Ivy Rose tersenyum pahit.

"See! You're going to have a good mom in future, Isaac."

"Yes!." Kanak-kanak lelaki itu melompat kegembiraan.

Gadis itu gigit bibirnya sambil menahan malu.

"Shall we, Brother Ian?." Dia memandang ke arah lelaki itu sambil tersenyum.

Lelaki itu angguk kepala.

Rolls Royce Cullinan hitam itu bergerak meninggalkan perkarangan kediaman itu. Suasana sepi menemani mereka bertiga. Isaac Shiloh sedang sibuk bermain game manakala gadis itu pula sibuk memandang ke luar tingkap.

Fikirannya menerawang mengingati perbualannya dengan Uncle Bernard, tentang Jonathan Maverick.

"Jonathan came to see me a few days ago. With full of anger."

"What did he said?."

"About his rights."

Sighs.

"Please be careful, Rayne. Please hire bodyguards to escort you and your son anywhere. We can't expect what he might do just to get what he wants."

"I need to settle this matter with him. Immediately."

"I agreed... Just, be careful."

"Don't worry, I'll be fine, Uncle."

Sighs. Keluhan berat dilepaskan didalam kereta itu, menyebabkan gadis itu menoleh ke arahnya.

"What's wrong, Brother Ian?." Soal Ivy Rose sambil merenung wajah lelaki itu.

Lelaki itu tersenyum.

"Do you feel tired? Let me drive."

"I'm fine, Rose."

"Are you sure?."

"Yes, just...".

"Just what?."

"Just talk to me.. We're not talking since we left them behind."

Gadis itu tersenyum.

"I have nothing to talk about."

"Yes, there it is. About last night."

Gadis itu tertawa. Tiada apa yang perlu dibahaskan tentang hal yang hampir terjadi itu. Dia yakin dengan perasaannya namun dia tidak yakin dengan perasaan lelaki itu. Sebelum ini dengan separuh mati lelaki itu mengatakan prinsipnya tidak akan bercinta dengan gadis muda, namun kini ianya tiba-tiba sahaja berubah. Dia tidak ingin lelaki itu terpaksa melakukannya hanya disebabkan oleh perasaan bersalah terhadap dirinya.

"Brother Ian, please. We don't need to talk about last night."

"Why?." Suara lembut itu menyapa gegendang telinganya.

"It's just a mistake, right?." Mereka bertatapan seketika.

"What kind of mistake, Rose? You and I have the same feeling."
