My Beloved Has Risen from Death’s Embrace

Chapter 46

Orion was always a bit of a frosty character, keeping everyone at arm’s length. Despite years of service at the Thompson household, the staff had never seen him warm up to any guest like he did today, and he even cracked a rare smile!

“Liam, look at Mr. Lockwood, Ms. Nightshade, and Sebastian together. Don’t they look like a family of three?”

“Absolutely! They’re just like a newlywed couple helping their son with his homework!”

“Of course, the highest!”

“And how many students are there in your class?

“A lot, why do you ask, Xan?”

“Are you sure it’s not just you?” Xanthea couldn’t take it anymore and when she opened her eyes, Orion was already smiling, his charm barely concealing her defeat.
