Jeremy, Cassian, and Everly found themselves in the library. Everly, who had only been in the Tang manor for a week, had been in this room just once when Daniel gave her the grand tour.
The books in here were like some kind of alien script to her. One glance and she'd either be asleep in a second or feel like her eyes were going crossed trying to make sense of them. And since she was more of a novel and comic kind of reader, this place had lost its charm real quick.
As soon as they stepped inside, all the questions Everly had been holding back since earlier came pouring out like a flood. She pointed an accusing finger at Jeremy.
"I've been dying to ask you this!!! What's up with you and your grandma? Why on earth does she want me to marry you? Didn't you come here because of some promise? Does that promise... that secret of yours... involve getting hitched?!"
"Of course not!"
