The servant stepped forward to stop him, "Young Master Dawn, Miss is fast asleep in your car. It's not good to wake her, nor can you walk back. How about you drive Miss's car back from the garage?"
His gaze swept inside the car, right there, inside his car, was the person he liked, yet someone he could never have.
He pressed his lips together, shook his head gently, saying, "No, Daisy is my future sister-in-law. Driving her car back wouldn't be good for either of us. Idle gossip is the most hurtful. I'll walk. Please don't wake her, she rarely manages to sleep."
It was unclear if these words were meant for the servant to hear, or for himself. Regardless, after speaking them, his heart felt unbearably bitter.
He was the illegitimate child of the Sutherland family, she was to be his future sister-in-law, betrothed to the Sutherland's eldest son, Aidan, since childhood.
Ha, what a painful fate, his love and affection doomed to be buried in his heart forever.
