Su trotted all the way back to the living room. He happened to see Martha in the living room and walked over with a smile. "Mom, you're back?" Martha glanced at Adeline's clothes and frowned. "Go and wash up first. We'll come down for dinner later!" "Yes!" Martha had always paid more attention to her image. Adeline's clothes had been in the forest for a few days, and many places were stained with mud and leaves. No wonder he looked so disgusted. Adeline hurriedly went upstairs, pushed open the bedroom door, and entered the washroom. Looking at himself in the mirror, Adeline even began to dislike himself. His hair was a bit messy, and his spotlessly white clothes were full of wood chips and mud stains. This was the first time she had looked like this in her entire life. She saw that the bathtub had been filled with water, which was covered with a layer of rose petals. The hot air slowly rose up from the petals, which made her feel like she was i
Adeline sat on the bed. As soon as he came back today, he had been busy. He forgot to ask about Nangong Yulin and Chloe's father, so he took out his mobile phone and dialed Chloe's number. Beep, beep, beep... "Hello?" A pleasant male voice came from the other end of the phone. Adeline thought that he had dialed the wrong number and hurriedly hung up. "Isn't this the number of Lil Ke? Why is it answered by a man?" He read the phone number again. It was indeed Chloe's. Adeline was worried that something had happened to Chloe, so he dialed Chloe's number again. "Hello, who are you?" Marvin's low and charming voice came from the other side of the phone. "Who are you? Why are you holding my friend's phone?" Adeline picked up the call and began to question him. Hearing this, Marvin had already guessed that it was Adeline. He coughed softly and said, "I'm Marvin. I'm taking a shower. Shall I ask her to answer your call later?" "Who a
"Second Young Master, look at this first." The butler was holding an entertainment newspaper from this morning. When he saw Sandrino coming down, he hurriedly showed it to him. Sandrino took the newspaper from the butler and glanced at the headline of the entertainment industry. There was also a photo of Adeline and Sheldon standing by the river. At first glance, they were very intimate, so it was difficult for some people to take out such photos. For other stars, such photos were normal, but for Adeline, it was a time bomb. Once it exploded, it would be hard to find a foothold in the entertainment industry, and even the Lockwood family would be bullied. "Tell them to intercept all of them. Try not to let my sister-in-law know." Before Lu Yangzhe could finish his words, Adeline came down. "Morning!" Adeline said with a smile. He had thought that she was the only one left at home, but he had not expected that Sandrino would be at home as well.
"Don't worry too much. Eddie is a sensible child. I'll talk to him alone someday." Adeline took Chloe's hand and patted it gently. Adrian saw Adeline and Chloe from a distance. He hurried forward and asked, "Adele, why are you at the hospital?" "I came to see Lil Ke. By the way, why are you here?" Adeline knew that Adrian must have heard about her, so he rushed to the hospital so early. "Did you arrange the bodyguards below?" Adrian asked Lu Yangzhe, with a trace of annoyance in his eyes. Sandrino glanced at Adeline and shrugged, indicating that he didn't know about it. "What happened?" "There are a lot of reporters outside the hospital. I'm afraid they will hurt you later." Adeline felt that it was very strange. She had just returned from the Misty Forest yesterday, and today, she had made it to the entertainment headlines. Furthermore, she had secretly taken photos of her from the snowy mountain. It seemed like someone was trying
"Then I'll have a sister-in-law in the future, won't I?" Adrian said excitedly. "Pfft..." Adeline held his belly and laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back. When she saw Chloe's expression, she couldn't help but want to laugh. "This is not what you think. I..." Chloe blushed and looked at Marvin anxiously, hoping that he could explain. Marvin thought that Lin was embarrassed, so he said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, in fact, you don't have to be embarrassed. Although my brother looks fierce on the surface, he is very gentle in private!" Then he looked at Marvin and asked him, "Brother, am I right?" "Yes!" Marvin responded faintly. He was so anxious about Chloe. "Brother Nangong, you really misunderstood us. We just..." Before Chloe could finish her words, she was interrupted by Marvin. "Chloe sprained her ankle yesterday, so I helped her apply the medicine for a while!" Marvin said lightly. Adeline felt that there was
Adrian took Adeline to the back door of an independent villa in the suburbs. A young man stood there. When he saw Adrian coming, he hurried to greet him. "Second Young Master!" "Is everything ready?" Adrian asked the young man. "Everything is ready!" The young man led them through the back door and brought them to a room. He took out two sets of clothes and handed them to Adrian. "This is the clothes I prepared for you!" Adrian glanced at his clothes and reached out to take them. He said, "You go down first. I'll call you after you change your clothes!" "Yes!" The young man bowed respectfully to Adrian and stepped back. "Nan Gong, where is this place?" Adeline had a feeling of being a thief, just like the plot on TV. "Get changed first. I'll take you to watch a good show later. I promise you won't be disappointed!" Adrian said in a good mood. Adrian opened the door of the room next to her and said to her, "Go inside and
"Young Madam, you're back?" When the butler saw that Adeline had returned, he quickly stepped forward and took the item from her hands. She glanced at the brightly lit living room and knew what was going on. "Young Madam, don't say anything more. This is how the entertainment industry is like. We'll go there in two days!" Su gave the butler a reassuring smile, and then he walked inside. "Dad, Mom!" "Come and sit down!" Nicholas glanced at Adeline and said in a deep voice. "Adeline, you are now the First Young Madam of the Lockwood family. Every word and action represents our Lockwood family. How should you explain what happened today?" Martha said with a cold face. Adeline sat down on the sofa next to him. Facing Martha's questioning, she felt that there was nothing to explain. "Dad, Mom, I don't have anything to explain?" "What did you say?" Hearing what she said, Martha suddenly became angry and scolded her softly.
"When things are settled, you can continue to act. You can take it as a holiday for yourself now, and it's good to relax!" Hearing the low voice on the phone, Alan comforted her. "Well, that's the only way for the time being!" Adeline walked to the window and looked at the night in the garden. He asked softly, "Hello, what if Nan Gong didn't find us that day?" "There is no if!" No matter what, that kind of thing would never happen in his dictionary. No matter when he was, he was always so overbearing. He chuckled and said, "Are you so confident?" "Yes!" The room soon quieted down, so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard. After a moment of silence, Alan said, "Don't think too much. Go to bed early!" "Good night!" After hanging up the phone, Su looked at the window for a while before going to bed. ... Early in the morning, the first ray of sunlight passed through the branches and shone on the carpet.
