After her voice fell, Noah Drexler’s expression paused, and the coldness on his handso face finally began to fade away.
Looking at the woman in his arms who was incredibly gentle and well-behaved at the mont, his heart couldn’t help but tremble slightly, instinctively wanting to hold her tightly in his embrace.
However, he still forcibly suppressed this impulse.
He had been too indulgent with her usually, which led to... this woman becoming increasingly unruly, disregarding his authority.
Thinking of this, his eyes darkened, and he spoke with a solemn voice, displeased, to the woman in his arms.
"Sumr Shawcross, this trick won’t work on !"
Did she think that by obediently admitting a mistake, he would let her go?
The man’s voice made Sumr Shawcross pause inwardly, and after a mont, she sighed, raised her head to look at him, and said seriously.
"Alright... Whatever you want, I have no objection."
Indeed, today’s matter was her fault. Due to the sudden circumstances and the surprise appearance of her brother, she was so happy that she didn’t think everything through.
So... whatever punishnt he wants today, she will accept it.
After her voice fell, Noah Drexler’s gaze lingered on her face full of guilt.
The next second, he turned his eyes away, leaned back on the sofa, and asked her in a calm voice.
"Where did you go today?"
After his words fell, his gaze inadvertently glanced at her fingers.
"I... t soone today." Sumr Shawcross paused, and after a bout of internal struggle, decided to tell the truth.
She didn’t want to lie to him.
"Who?" Noah Drexler frowned and asked with concern.
"My brother." Sumr Shawcross replied, then seriously watched the expression on his face.
As expected, after she ntioned eting Sean Shawcross, Noah Drexler’s face changed, and his gaze grew colder.
Sumr Shawcross’s heart tightened, and she looked at him nervously, wanting to ask sothing.
"My brother..."
Before she could finish, Noah Drexler interrupted with his serious voice.
"Next ti before going to et anyone, inform first." He looked at her with lowered eyes, his handso face full of seriousness.
She was stunned for a mont, then gently nodded, though still feeling a bit puzzled.
"Noah Drexler, if I go to see my brother, will you be angry?" She looked at him and asked softly.
Her brother ntioned that Noah Drexler was investigating him...
Noah Drexler frowned and then moved his lips, slowly speaking to her.
"If you want to see him more often, I can arrange for him to stay in Narsus City."
"No need, I’ve ntioned it to him; he’s unwilling to stay." Sumr Shawcross sighed, her concerns dissipating. If Noah Drexler really had any feud with Sean Shawcross, he wouldn’t say this.
She thought, maybe her brother misunderstood sothing... Just like she used to, always misunderstanding Noah Drexler.
As Sumr Shawcross was lost in thought, Noah Drexler’s deep voice suddenly rang out.
"I will give orders that you are not allowed to leave the house for a month."
"What?" His words shocked Sumr Shawcross; she raised her head in horror, unable to believe she heard the words she least wanted to hear...
Grounded again?
"Hmm? Any objections?" Noah Drexler frowned and questioned her softly.
Hadn’t she just said that no matter what he wanted, she had no objections?
