Bab 52: Obligated 

Alexander drove into the estate and went inside the mansion to pick Rain up. He had dismissed his driver and Tyron, preferring to drive himself.

As soon as he saw Rain, something in her felt off. She had a serious expression on her face the moment she saw him and maintained it even when they were finally alone in the car. 

The silence in the car was unsettling, even though Alexander usually preferred it but it was making him uneasy. He didn't enjoy small talk or engaging in conversations he deemed unnecessary, but he liked to hear her talk. After a few more minutes of silence, he cleared his throat and decided to break the silence.

"How's the winery? Did you find out what's causing the unrest among the employees?" he asked.
