Chapter 283 Upstairs , Adriel was still holding Elsie in his arms , trying to soothe her .

Elsie , whats wrong ? What are you s so afraid of Elsie clung tightly to him , refusing to let go .

No matter how he asked , she just shook her head again and again , holding onto his arm like her life depended on it .

In a pleading voice , she whispered , Dont … dont go out The man Noelle had brought home he was dangerous , Elsie didnt know what exactly was going to happen , but something inside her screamed that if Adriel went out there , he would get hurt .

And she couldnt let that happen .

Elsie ? Please dont go , she murmured again , trembling Meanwhile , Noelle was searching all over the villa for Nicolas but found Stanley instead .

Stanley! she greeted him with a smile .

Sorry Ive been so busy I kind of left you hanging .

Oh right , where are Harley and Tina ? Feigning calm like nothing was wrong , Stanley replied , I sent them home already .

Already ? Noelle blinked .

Why didnt they say goodbye ? You were swamped .

We didnt want to bother you You still couldve said something .

Noelle pouted , clearly unhappy with how casually theyd left .

Stanley ignored her your distance from .

After glancing around to make sure Brandon wasnt nearby , he suddenly said , You should keep Keep my distance ? Why ? Noelle frowned .

Even though shed sensed Brandon had changed , she still saw him as a friend someone whod once brought light into her dark childhood .

But Stanleys expression was dead serious , and that set off alarms in her mind .

Its complicated , Stanley muttered , raking a hand through his hair .

Just trust me on this one .

Okay , Noelle said uncertainly , sensing he wasnt going to explain mor Then she asked , Do you know where Nicolas is ? Oh , hes with the military- Stanley began , then stopped himself abruptly .

But it was too late The military ? Noelles entire body tensed .

She grabbed Stanley by the collar .

Why ? Why is he contacting the military ? Stanley tried to deflect , but Noelle wasnt Jetting him off the hook .

She shook him hard .

Answer me , Stanley ! What is Nicolas doing with the military ! Panicked , Stanley looked around and hissed , Keep your voice down ! Do you want to cause a panic ? Then tell me the truth , she demanded .

What are you all hiding from me ? Seeing that the wouldnt drop it , Stanley finally gave in Look , its because- But just as he was about to spill the truth , a familiar voice cut in from behind . Stanley froze He turned slowly .
