Chapter 276

Seeing the two of them eagerly heading upstairs, Dorian stepped in front of them, his voice firm, "No way!"

He grabbed Elysia's arm, "You're coming home with me!"

Elysia looked at him, clearly annoyed, "Let go of me. I'm just staying over at Ely's for one night. It's not like I'm not coming back. I'll be home by tomorrow."

Dorian was momentarily speechless, his face still showing his displeasure.

Just as he was about to continue, his phone rang. He answered it, "Hello?"

"Dorian! Where are you right now? I need your help with something. Can you come over?"
