Shut Up, Young Lady, Obediently Hand Over The Money And Don't Confess! Chapter 324 : Felyn, Please Come Over Tonight

"Fe-Felyn?!"

Felyn grabbed Adeline's wrist and ran directly out of the Serafina building.

Adeline, in a daze, was led by Felyn in a light jog, but she didn't struggle.

It wasn't until the building was far behind them that Felyn's steps finally stopped.

Felyn actually had many choices just now. For example, he could have hidden in the restroom, or asked Adeline to hide him. That way, Serafina most likely wouldn't have discovered him.

But if Serafina accidentally went into the wrong restroom, or if Serafina made a detour to the VIP room specifically to greet Adeline, then he would still be at risk of being exposed.

So he simply got away from that place completely.

He couldn't have any contact with Serafina outside of the contract ti, otherwise it would be very troubleso.

"Sorry, Adeline, for pulling you out on my own accord."

Adeline, seeing that Felyn still hadn't let go of her hand, couldn't help but feel a little happy.

"It's okay, you're all sweaty from running."

Adeline took out a handkerchief with her other hand and wiped the sweat from Felyn's forehead.

Adeline had already guessed the answer in her heart as to why Felyn suddenly ran out after hearing Serafina's na.

Serafina might be Felyn's client, or an ex-girlfriend or sothing similar.

But Adeline didn't ask Felyn. Since Felyn didn't want to say, why ask?

"But it just so happens that Carlos was late too, and didn't et with us at the appointed ti. I might as well just ssage him and say I have sothing to do, and cancel this eting."

Adeline took out a sigil from her pocket. Before Felyn could answer, she had already started ssaging Carlos.

"Won't it delay the progress of the school festival?"

"Not at all."

After ssaging Carlos on the sigil, Adeline turned her head away in embarrassnt, her toes tapping lightly on the ground as she said in a low voice, "Actually... I didn't even need to et with Carlos today. I've already seen the sculpture Serafina made for us, and there's no problem with it."

"Th-this ti, I just wanted to find an excuse to go out for a walk with you, Felyn... If you saw sothing you liked at Serafina's, I could have bought it for you directly."

"Because our contract is about to end soon, so, so I wanted to find an opportunity to spend more ti with you. I didn't expect to cause you trouble."

Adeline gently tugged on Felyn's sleeve, her head lowered as she honestly admitted her mistake.

She believed that she had deceived Felyn on her own accord, which led to Felyn's current crisis, and led to Felyn possibly eting soone he didn't want to et.

"Adeline, actually, you didn't have to tell any of this. If you hadn't said anything, I definitely wouldn't have known."

"But, but I did bring you trouble. If I hadn't been clinging to you, you wouldn't have encountered such a thing."

Adeline bit her lip, still not daring to look Felyn in the eye. "I lied to you, Felyn, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have used this excuse to get you to co here with . I won't do it again."

Her fingers unconsciously twisted the hem of her skirt, the fabric of her uniform letting out a faint whimper under her fingertips.

Felyn felt that Adeline was a bit too kind.

What would I do if I were in this situation? I would most likely hide this matter and just satisfy the client.

But Adeline still chose to confess, even knowing that it might make Felyn angry.

"I should be the one apologizing. After all, it was because of that I took you away from the Serafina building, so I..."

Felyn didn't finish his sentence. His gaze fell on his own hand.

Without him even noticing, this hand had involuntarily co to Adeline's head, as if wanting to pat the head of this young lady who was now closing her eyes and sincerely apologizing to him.

What am I doing?

Felyn was startled. He subconsciously wanted to comfort Adeline.

No, this isn't right.

Why is this happening?

Could it be that I'm starting to soften towards this version of Adeline?

But Adeline was still his client. She even liked him, and was still pursuing him.

What... what do I want to do?

... ...

"Buzz, buzz."

Carlos, in the car, saw the ssage from Adeline on his sigil and sincerely apologized to Miss Adeline. After all, it was because he hadn't received Miss Adeline at the appointed ti.

"Is it a ssage from Miss Adeline?"

A sowhat charming voice ca from the back seat of the car, like aged red wine slowly flowing into a goblet, lazy and wrapped in a captivating flavor.

"Yes, Lady Serafina. I was supposed to et with Miss Adeline today to inspect the sculpture prepared for the school festival again, but I just learned of your return, so I postponed the eting with Miss Adeline for a bit and ca to pick you up right away."

"Why? Didn't I say you didn't need to pick up?" The voice from behind suddenly turned icy, causing the temperature inside the car to drop rapidly.

"Miss Adeline is the eldest daughter of the Claude family. Why would you neglect her?"

Carlos wanted to argue a bit, but when he turned around and saw Serafina, he closed his mouth.

When faced with Serafina's pale blue eyes, all explanations beca powerless.

Not just Carlos, but everyone who had co into contact with Serafina had a feeling that once they were stared at by those eyes, they would feel weak all over, as if completely suppressed by Serafina's aura.

People who t her had this reaction partly because of Serafina's fa and wealth.

The luxury brand nad after her was famous all over the world. In so places, people even fought over Serafina's limited edition accessories.

And Serafina herself was also known in the industry as the world's most outstanding designer. Her fields of expertise were quite broad. Not only jewelry, but also bags, clothes, high heels, and other product designs all ca from her hand.

And on the other hand, it was because Serafina herself was very special.

She was a dragon.

Dragons are naturally sensitive to treasures, which is why her designs are so outstanding.

Dragons are also proud. When they appear before humans, the suppression of their bloodline will make human emotions unstable.

"Humans are so useless..." Serafina leaned back in the back seat and said softly.

She knew what Carlos was thinking. He felt that pleasing her was far more useful than receiving Adeline.

But it was precisely because of this kind of thinking that he might have angered a big shot like Adeline.

In Serafina's eyes, humans were all short-sighted, selfish, and useless.

She hated humans.

But she had to rely on one person.

That young man.

Serafina was in a bad mood. She rubbed her temples, opened her communication sigil, and sent a ssage to that person.

[Felyn, please co over tonight.]

Not long after, she received a short reply, and Serafina's brow finally relaxed a lot.

[Of course, Miss Serafinia.]

This was a na only she and he knew.
