Chapter 1019 Meeting Ian

Otto's smile was reassuring. "Ian doesn't know Mr. Lenoir all that well, and his interest lies solely in Mr. Lenoir's financial resources. He won't notice the differences in your voices."

He was attentive, compassionate, and acutely aware of her family's financial struggles, generously offering her his old study materials when she couldn't afford new ones. He even noticed when she wasn't feeling well and expressed genuine concern.
