“All right,” Sylas replied respectfully as he started the car engine. Suspicion rose in his heart as he peered at Evander’s expression from the rearview mirror.

Previously, when Evander did not have to attend any social events after work, he would stay at the company for an extra two hours. However, he was heading home early today. This behavior was unprecedented.

Is it because Delano isn’t important, or is it because Ms. Sorelle is at his place? He’s also been paying extra attention to her. Even if it was because of Starlight Jewelry’s sales, it’s just way too much!

Sylas came back to his senses at the thought. If I get sacked one day, it’ll be because of my loudmouth!

The black luxury car slid into the mansion’s driveway smoothly.

The mansion was brightly lit. Standing at the entrance, one could hear the sounds of chatter coming from the living room. It had been a long time since the Golding residence was this lively.

Standing at the entrance, the warm lights bathed the side of Evander’s face, softening his angular jaw a tad.

His expression became slightly dazed as he heard the sound of Angeline’s laughter.

“Mr. Golding, you’re back!”

Francesca hurried over when she spotted Evander opening the doors to the mansion.

“Yeah,” Evander replied faintly. He took off his grey coat and hung it on the clothes rack.

Inside the living room, Angeline sat with Floretta on the carpet on the floor. They were currently playing chess.

When Angeline saw Evander come in, she hurriedly got to her feet and gripped the edges of her clothes awkwardly.

Finally, she spoke up when she saw him come over and pat Floretta’s head. “Mr. Golding, may I have a moment of your time? I have something to tell you.”

“Prepare a cup of coffee and bring it to my study on the second floor,” Evander ordered coldly. His tone was as bone-chilling as the winds that blew during the winter months.

Having said that, he headed upstairs.
