Serenity and Zachary York



However, Dylan remained silent.

He thought, 'She's laughing like a fool."

Why did Silver take her in as his student? Sugar did not seem outstanding aside from her looks.

Dylan had never witnessed the elders' greatness and only heard stories.

Grandma May said they were powerful, and so were their students.

He had met Dr. Carden before. He admitted that she was competent. She had cured Camryn's eyes.

What was Sugar good at?

"You can drop me off outside, Mr. Dylan. I can take a taxi myself.

"I won't stay at Wiltspoon Hotel either. Your hotel is pretty expensive. It's over one grand a night. I don't have much money as I haven't been doing anything lately. I can't afford such an expensive hotel."

Sugar talked to Dylan while keeping her eyes on her videos.

Dylan was more than happy to oblige, but he could not ditch a request from his nana. He said, "Nana asked me to drive you to Wiltspoon Hotel and check you in. You don't have to pay for anything. I'll settle the bill. You're our guest. How can we let our guests pay for the hotel?"

Sugar added, "I know you didn't want to give me a ride, and I don't like to impose. I only got into your car because of the elders' arrangements. More importantly, it's difficult to get a taxi here. I don't think cars can enter easily."

It was a high-end neighborhood with imprable security.

Otherwise, the Stone family would not have chosen to settle down in this neighborhood.

Taxis probably were not allowed to enter.

Hence, Sugar would not be able to get a taxi inside.

That was why she got into Dylan's car to exit the neighborhood.

She could sense that the man was unwilling to drive her.

"You're wrong. Since I've agreed to my nana's request to take you to the hotel, I'll see it through."

Dylan tried hard to deny his unwillingness.

"What industry are you working in? Which company?"

He changed the topic.

Sugar replied, "Will you believe me if I say I don't have a proper job and have been doing illegal things all along?"

“No. The masters are highly respected. You're Silver's student. How can you do illegal things?"

Sugar smiled. "My teacher can't produce sneaky students, but Dan can."

Dylan had no words.

"I've been living with my teacher since I was four and only returned to my family after I've completed my training, Silver, Dan, and Doc have a very close relationship. You've seen it yourself. They are so close that they can wear each other's clothes.

"Due to their bond, they'll teach each others' students despite having their own. All of us learned and mastered various skills aside from medicine. "No one can guess I'm Silver's student if I don't reveal it myself."

It was because she was equipped with multiple skills.

However, Sugar was not interested in what Doc had to offer. Medicine and poisons were too difficult to learn. Even after over ten years, her knowledge of medicine remained at the basics.

Lilian was on another level.

"I like Dan the most. He's a master at stealing things. He can get anything he has his eyes on without anyone noticing it at all. I'm not as good as he is."

Sugar could steal something if she wanted to.

However, her family had forbidden her from doing such things.

Her parents could not afford to be embarrassed.

When she was with the elders, Sugar was free to do whatever she wanted, except anything cruel or inhumane. Dan said that retribution would definitely follow.

However, when it came to her

family, she had many things to consider. The first and foremost would be not ruining the family's reputation or embarrassing ber parents.
