Chapter 15: Chapter 14: Aunt Wang

The old Lyle family residence.

Located at the very west of Lindon Hill in South City, with convenient transportation, an asphalt road winds up to the villa on the mountaintop.

The road was funded by the Lyle family, and not just anyone can enter this road leading to the Lyle’s; there’s a gate at the foot of the hill, guarded by designated personnel.

When Elliana Lyle arrived, it was already eight in the evening, and she was feeling woozy, needing Norman Bennett’s assistance to support her a bit.

She wasn’t wearing formal attire, just loose shorts and sportswear, her hair tied up in a high ponytail, giving off a sense of sunshine.

This old residence initially comprised seven courtyards, but because the eldest uncle was once an overseas student and insisted on living in a villa, the old lady remodeled the residence into a hybrid of Chinese and Western styles, also for convenience’s sake.

By this time, the old lady had already retired for the night, and they were received by the elder aunt.

"Oh, how come you’re only here now? Your grandmother’s already asleep." Bemusedly welcomed by Aunt Belle King, a woman in her late forties, standing about 168 cm tall. Noble and gracious on the surface, yet remarkably sharp-tongued.

"Aunt." Elliana’s tone and demeanor were calm, neither ingratiating nor respectful, yet no longer sharply confrontational as before, appearing much more compliant.

When Belle King saw clearly the person standing behind Elliana, she immediately wore a smile on her face, realizing Norman Bennett was here today. "Oh, Norman also came along, must have been a tiring journey?"

Without waiting for Norman Bennett to reply, Belle King instructed the maid behind her, "Take Elliana inside to rest."

"Yes." With her head slightly lowered, the maid approached Elliana and said with a smile, "Miss, come with me."

Elliana was indeed tired at this moment, wishing she could just dive into bed, nodding slightly to signal the maid to lead the way.

There was actually no need for leading the way; it was just Aunt Belle intentionally categorizing her as a guest.

Seeing Elliana obediently leave with the maid, Belle King sidled up to Norman Bennett, chuckling, "Norman, truly a trial for you, that girl has been spoiled since she was little."

"It’s late, sorry to trouble you arranging accommodations, Aunt." Norman Bennett’s tone was very polite, yet distantly.
