She Became Rich After Divorce by Georgina Lane

Chapter 147: I Don’t Need to Explain Myself to You

The hallway was dimly lit, and the tall man’s shadow stretched across the nearby wall.

It elongated suddenly.

The first thing that caught the eye was his long and perfectly straight legs, even ordinary black cotton linen pajama pants seemed to exude a noble vibe.

His face was stern with furrowed eyebrows, and his icy gaze fell upon Joe who quickly bowed in respect. “Master Kelvin,” Joe said with utmost deference. “Lady Emelia has taken a liking to this room.” Kelvin was momentarily surprised but then his expression turned frosty as he looked at Emelia who shivered under his cold stare. Her lips parted slightly as she spoke softly. “Kel… Kelvin, I like this room. Can’t I sleep here?”

Emelia considered herself to be quite attractive and delicate, so surely even someone as aloof as Kelvin would show some gentlemanly manners towards her. But unfortunately for her, in Kelvin’s eyes, there were only two types of people, there was no distinction between men and women.

In the professional world, there were only two types of people in his eyes: those who had value and those who didn’t.

In his personal life, the only distinction he made was between those who were relevant and those who weren’t.

Emelia fell into the category of someone who was both valueless and irrelevant in his eyes.

Gentlemanly manners?

Kelvin never thought himself to be a gentleman nor had any plans to become one either way; instead he pursed his lips together, before uttering a word coldly, “No!”

It shattered all of Emilia’s fantasies about staying in that room, leaving her looking bewildered.

“Kelvin, why?” She asked him plaintively but even Kelvin didn’t have an answer himself; it just felt wrong having her stay next door to him.

He found a perfect excuse for himself though – He hated Franklin and his children, such as his daughter Emilia who saw herself as a princess from the Foley family!

Kelvin lowered his eyelids slightly while thick lashes covered up any displeasure that might have been present within them before answering coldly, “No reason! I’m just not used to having someone next door.”

In the empty hallway, the dim yellow light failed to create a warm atmosphere; instead, it gave off a somewhat unreal feeling.
