Cecilia Vaughn stared in disbelief at Adrian Law, who had picked up the little white kitten, almost doubting her own eyes.
Adrian had a calm expression, as if everything was perfectly ordinary.
"Cecilia, you take your ti with the porridge. I’ll put Mimi back in her cat bed, and once you’ve finished, go freshen up."
"Okay."
Watching the man carry Mimi upstairs, Cecilia was still quite confused.
How did these two, the big and the small, end up getting along so well?
Forget it, it doesn’t matter. Seeing Adrian and Mimi getting along so well made Cecilia very happy.
Throwing flowers, she finally didn’t have to worry about one man and one cat getting jealous of each other randomly!
Unconsciously, the millet porridge in her bowl beca more fragrant and sweet, and soon it was all gone.
The girl’s apricot eyes curved into a smile, revealing a few shades of joy.
Returning ho to eat porridge cooked with love by the one she cares about, maybe this is the simplest and sweetest happiness in life?
After filling her stomach, Cecilia went to freshen up and returned to the bedroom.
The man was quietly leaning against the side of the bed, seemingly engrossed in sothing.
Because of this seriousness, his noble and tall figure appeared even more captivating.
Cecilia moved closer and saw that the article title displayed on the iPad was "How to Raise a Lion Cat for Beginners".
Seeing this, the girl couldn’t help but chuckle softly and teased with a smile.
"Adrian, who would have thought that soone who used to insist on sending Mimi away would also read such articles."
Adrian raised his handso eyebrows, and an intriguing smile appeared in his phoenix eyes.
"Cecilia, isn’t this all for you? Whatever you like, your husband naturally needs to fully support."
"..."
The man’s handso face bore a carefree smile, with a hint of mischief. Cecilia’s face blushed from watching him, and she couldn’t help but give him a playful scorn.
"Such a sweet-talker. Okay, let’s sleep now before it gets light, Adrian, goodnight."
Thinking it over, she added very seriously.
"If this happens again in the future, you should just sleep first, no need to wait for ."
The man sighed deeply, and his towering figure suddenly embraced her tightly, his voice low and deep.
"Cecilia, without you, I can’t sleep."
"..."
Who exactly said Adrian Law is cold and indifferent?
His love words skills are obviously at the max level, aren’t they?
"Sleep tight!"
Cecilia’s ears turned pink as she hurriedly slapped away the man’s restless hand and pulled the quilt over her head.
In her heart, however, a trace of sweetness couldn’t help but erge.
Wherever Adrian Law is, it always feels so safe and sweet.
Adrian, how can you be so perfect?
Even beyond her expectations.
She hopes that none of this will ever change.
"Cecilia, goodnight."
Adrian slightly smiled as he pulled back the quilt, planting a most loving kiss on the girl’s forehead, and then embraced her in his arms.
After all, both were tired from working all night, so with their darling beside them, they quickly fell into a deep sleep.
...
In the blink of an eye, it was seven o’clock. Cecilia lacked sleep, and when she got up, she realized she already had dark circles under her eyes.
In contrast, Adrian Law, although his phoenix eyes still showed so red bloodshot lines, looked much more energetic than she was.
She couldn’t help but click her tongue in wonder.
"Mr. CEO, how do you still look so refreshed despite managing so many事务?"
The man casually glanced at her, a teasing smile playing on his lips.
"Cecilia, this just ans you need more exercise."
"But since you’re usually busy with comics or studies, it’s no surprise you don’t have ti to exercise. If you have so free ti, we could try so ’workouts’ in the bedroom to improve your physical condition."
At first, Cecilia didn’t quite catch on.
When she realized Adrian was talking about that kind of exercise, even her palms seed to warm up.
This man is so naughty! ——
She could only shake her head helplessly.
"Adrian, you’ve beco more and more smooth-tongued, I can’t believe it’s you saying that."
The man chuckled softly, his thin lips brushing against the girl’s hair, subtly stirring her heart.
"Silly Cecilia, it cos naturally when I see you."
Cecilia: "..."
Her face quietly turned red all the way to her ears.
...
Since she still had to go to school, Cecilia didn’t have the ti to continue arguing with Adrian.
As she walked down the stairs, she saw Wyatt Law had already changed into formal attire. Wyatt was a bit uncomfortable with staying over at Starfall Bay, but Cecilia seed cheerful.
Adrian understood his subordinates well, and as Wyatt had followed him since Wyatt was young, it was okay for Wyatt to stay temporarily in such an empty villa.
"Good morning, Wyatt."
Wyatt greeted her respectfully.
"Good morning, Young Madam."
After hesitating for a while, Wyatt still called out to Cecilia, who was heading to the restroom.
"Young Madam, you should know that Master waited for you all night yesterday, right?"
Hearing this, sothing deep inside Cecilia resonated heavily.
That mont at four in the morning when she opened the door and saw Adrian, she truly couldn’t describe it.
Adrian hadn’t turned on the living room lights. Moonlight poured in from outside, casting an endless solitude over the man, detached.
But the mont he saw her, she clearly noticed Adrian’s eyes suddenly brighten, as if the whole person was lit up in an instant.
That feeling was beyond words.
...
Noticing Cecilia nod, her eyes a bit red, Wyatt held back a lot of words that were stuck in his chest but finally just sighed.
"Young Madam, although Master appears aloof and indifferent, he’s actually soone who’s deeply affectionate and stubborn. Once he sets his mind on a person, he won’t let go..."
"I’ve followed Master since I was young, and I understand Master’s temperant best. I hope you won’t let him down."
In ways Cecilia didn’t know, Master had done so much for her...
He revisited a case from three years ago, intending to clear Young Madam’s na...
He spent a fortune to manage public opinion and took actions against Fiona Vaughn for Young Madam...
He canceled etings with major Vesparian companies just to make contact with Director Chapman, paving the way for Cecilia’s comics...
Incident after incident, the list goes on.
However, with Master’s reserved personality, no matter how much he gave, he never ntioned any of it, nor did he allow Wyatt to ntion it.
Even as an outsider, Wyatt felt anxious.
Knowing Wyatt was concerned about Adrian, Cecilia looked earnestly at him and nodded cautiously.
"Wyatt, I promise, I will use everything I have to be good to Adrian, I hope you trust ."
...
"What were you discussing so seriously?"
A deep, calm voice cut through, and Cecilia realized Adrian had already finished freshening up, dressed in a suit, looking impressively dignified.
"Talking about you."
Cecilia winked playfully at Adrian.
"Naughty."
The man affectionately tapped Cecilia’s nose and didn’t ask further questions. Instead, he instructed Wyatt.
"Wyatt, today, you’ll take Cecilia to school. It’s getting late, and also buy her so snacks from Splendid Pavilion on the way."
"Yes, Master."
...
Stepping out of Wyatt’s black Volkswagen Phaeton, Cecilia held the snack box from Splendid Pavilion and headed towards Stellerton University’s gate.
Unexpectedly, a rose-pink Maserati screeched to a halt right in front of her!
It outright blocked her path!
