Chapter 167

Warmth returned to her body as Serena placed the little calico cat in her room.

Seeing Hugh dragging his suitcase over, she asked, "How was your business trip?"

"It went well." A little exhausting. He had wanted to come back as soon as possible.

Hugh glanced deeply at Serena, then shifted his gaze toward the living room, where scattered dishes and an opened box of porcelains lay. The packaging looked freshly unsealed.

Inside were the exact pieces from the photos Samuel had sent him—a gift meant for him.

Hugh stopped in his tracks. But when he saw the little calico start lapping at the water inside one of the porcelain bowls, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

"It looks nice." He didn't like it.
