Two days later.
The Hillside Villa, afternoon.
The weather was gloomy, making it particularly cool.
Today the housekeeper had the servants move the table and chairs to the lawn at the entrance of the villa. Sumr Shawcross sat on a chair, enjoying the cool breeze while eating fruit and checking her phone for the sales and rankings of her new album, as well as the many reviews of her new song. Surprisingly, the feedback was overwhelmingly positive.
Once always criticized and attacked, the sudden change to such favorable treatnt made her sowhat unaccustod.
Just as she was focused on her phone, the housekeeper ca over with two more portions of snacks, placing them on the table.
"Housekeeper, I’m already full..." Sumr gave a helpless glance at the small coffee table filled with various fruits and snacks.
The housekeeper was treating her like a pig to be fed...
On hearing her words, the housekeeper rely smiled, and with a concerned expression, said to her,
"Ma’am, now is the ti for you to rest more and eat more, so you can gain a little weight."
As he spoke, the housekeeper instinctively glanced at her belly.
Now that ma’am and sir can finally get along peacefully, it’s natural to seize the mont to have a child and stabilize the relationship.
"That won’t do, if I gain weight, I’ll look bad on cara." Sumr pursed her lips, directly rejecting the housekeeper’s suggestion.
Although she just released a new album, she didn’t plan to follow the trend of hype, so apart from recording a variety show to promote her new song, she hasn’t made many public appearances.
Plus, with the mix-up that happened on the street downtown in Narsus a few days ago, Sumr decided to keep a low profile and stay ho to rest.
But she would eventually have to appear on cara again, and it would be quite awkward if she were too overweight.
Thinking of this, she realized that the incident from a few days ago hadn’t surfaced in the news, probably because Noah Drexler had soone take care of it.
Just as the housekeeper sighed, ready to persuade her further, the iron gate of the villa suddenly opened.
Soon after, several cars drove in from outside, slowly making their way towards them.
"Sir is back." The housekeeper turned to look and said, sowhat surprised.
Sumr turned her head in amazent, also looking surprised.
It was just past noon, why had Noah Drexler returned so early today?
Before long, the car arrived at the villa entrance and stopped.
Noah Drexler stepped out of the car, followed by Sean Morgan.
After getting out, Noah’s eyes imdiately fell on Sumr, then turned to the housekeeper beside him, giving an order.
"Have people pack up, I need to go on a business trip for a few days."
Upon hearing this, the housekeeper nodded, quickly turning to leave.
"Business trip? Why the rush?" Sumr got up from her seat and walked towards Noah, asking in surprise.
Why was this business trip so urgent?
"Yes, sothing ca up there, I have to leave by evening." Noah pressed his lips together, answering softly.
A project abroad encountered a problem, and he needed to take so senior staff over there imdiately.
Hearing this, Sumr nodded lightly, and couldn’t help but ask another question.
"How long will you be gone?"
"About more than five days," he responded, though it would depend on the circumstances.
"That long?" She looked at him in astonishnt. His business trip was going to last that long?
"I’ll be back before next Friday."
