Chapter 604

After kicking up all that fuss, Louis and Felix had nothing to show for it.

Originally, Adrian planned to stay in the old man’s courtyard for a while longer, but that plan was ruined. He had no choice but to leave with Nadine for the time being.

He let go of Nadine’s waist once they were out of the rear courtyard. She grew displeased the moment he retracted his arm.

“Why are you letting go?”

Adrian looked down, shot her a glare, and pushed her away. After that, he walked off into the distance.

Nadine stamped her foot angrily and gritted her teeth as she stared at him. With a cold snort, she said, “Fine! I will make you mine one of these days. Just wait and see.

“Hmph!”

She then caught up with Adrian and they strolled around the rest of the estate until the sky turned dark.

Adrian paid Nadine zero attention. He focused solely on coming up with a plan to enter the old man’s residence and have a

look around.

The sky had turned completely dark by the time Adrian and Nadine arrived back at her villa. Carlene was sitting on the sofa and watching a television series. When she saw the two of them walking in, she turned around and said, “Naddy, you’re back. How did it go? Did you two have a good chat?”

Adrian smiled at Carlene, while Nadine said, “It’s late, Mother, I don’t think it’ll be a good idea for Adrian to drive back to Swallowston alone at this hour so I’ve asked him to stay the night.”

Carlene nodded. “Okay, but I’m a little too tired to prepare a room for him. How about he stay in your room for the night? Also, I won’t be cooking dinner so you two go ahead and eat whatever you want.”
