She didn’t know exactly what was happening on Adrian’s side; she was mainly worried about Old Master’s difficulties.
She stood on the balcony for a long ti; by eleven o’clock, Adrian still hadn’t returned.
Sumr Sutton initially thought that if he didn’t co back, he would at least give her a call.
Yet, when she waited for him until half past twelve, there was not a single call from him.
Not only that night, but even during the following two or three days, Adrian didn’t call at all.
Sumr Sutton tossed her phone aside, deciding not to think about him anymore and continued with her work.
...
After Adrian returned to the Walyon Family, he stayed for several days.
That night, Diana Wood directly told him that he must accept the Walyon Family whether he wanted it or not! If everything is left to others, aren’t you afraid that one day the Walyon Family won’t even have a place for the four of us to stay?
She understood many things.
Diana didn’t know what kind of person Bryce Walyon was, but one can never be too careful.
Moreover, so people can’t be avoided just by not provoking them.
After all, Adrian’s identity inconveniences too many people.
Diana’s words were considered earnest and heartfelt.
Anyway, with the current situation of the Walyon Family, Old Master had handed everything over to Bryce Walyon and his son to manage, so Diana never felt secure.
Adrian seed to take her words to heart and stayed at the Walyon Family for the next few days.
Bryce Walyon was a bit surprised to see him residing at ho.
Watching him eat in the dining room, Bryce touched his chin like he was pondering sothing.
...
Old Master Walyon and Adrian have been getting along fairly well these days.
The harmony between grandfather and grandson wasn’t a joyful one.
As long as Old Master wasn’t furious, it was considered harmonious.
In the days after Adrian returned, they hadn’t spoken a word to each other nor had any disputes.
Seeing the lack of conflict between them, so people beca anxious, fearing their relationship might improve. One evening, Bryce Walyon entered Old Master’s room offering a suggestion, "Dad, now that Adrian is back, what do you think about the matter I discussed with you before? My friend’s daughter is very obedient, hasn’t shown any temper since childhood, listens well, and is compliant. Don’t elders just love such a daughter-in-law? The most important thing is her family background is good, well-matched with ours. If Adrian marries her, it would be a powerful alliance!"
It’s well-known among the Walyon Family that Old Master has opinions about Sumr Sutton.
Sumr Sutton is like a fuse between Adrian and Old Master.
If ignited, both sides could potentially erupt.
Bryce Walyon was purely stirring things up.
Although Old Master didn’t outwardly express any joy over Adrian’s return, one could sense he was actually quite pleased internally.
People could see that during these days of peace, Old Master was cautiously maintaining the current harmony with Adrian.
"Let’s talk about it later!" With no expression on his face, Old Master left the room with his hands behind his back.
Bryce Walyon’s plan fell through, leaving him with a stiff expression.
...
Adrian hadn’t shown up for several days nor had he given Sumr Sutton a call.
When he was around, Sumr tried every possible way to drive him away.
Now that he’s not here, Sumr seems rather unaccustod.
She frequently picks up her phone to see if there’s any call from him.
But after waiting for a full week, there was still no news from him.
