With a slight sound, the tightly shut door was suddenly opened by Flossie Wright’s movement.
A short, startled voice rang out, carrying with it an immature tone.
The first thing that catches her sight is nothing more than the background of the corridor. Following that startled cry, Flossie quickly dropped her gaze, Grady Wright’s figure immediately came into view, soon followed by his shocked face rigidly staring at her, almost retracting into his neck in fear.
Flossie’s gaze sank slightly.
"Big sister ..."
𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Startled, Grady looked at her timidly, his shoulders slightly twitching, his entire body shaking from fright. His wide eyes stared intently at Flossie, fearing her fist might strike down from above, leaving him bruised all over.
"What are you doing standing here?"
Flossie’s tone was somewhat cold, her expressionless face coupled with that tone sent Grady into a stupor, staring blankly at her without blinking, being unresponsive for some time.
Finally regaining a little consciousness, Grady quickly lowered his gaze, no longer daring to meet hers and began to mumble an explanation.
However, before he could continue stammering, Flossie’s gaze swept around the corridor and in the next moment, she had dragged Grady into the room. Before he could understand the situation, the door was once again shut. The sound of the door being locked sent a tremor through him.
Now when Grady lifted his head, he not only saw Flossie, who was enveloped in a cold aura, but also Glenn Hutchinson, whose strong presence was utterly intimidating. He was instantly taken aback and retreated a few steps, but behind him was not a path for escape, but a cold and solid wall.
He was doomed!
Upon touching the wall, the phrase reverberated ceaselessly in Grady’s mind.
"I...I just came to take a look," Grady said fearfully, looking at the two formidable figures standing in front of him, hastily explaining, "I had just reached the door and hadn’t heard anything when the door opened."
Grady spoke in a wronged and innocent tone. Indeed, he had just touched the door when Flossie caught him in the act, he hadn’t heard a word.
If he had known he would be discovered, even if he had the courage of ten leopards, he would not dare to sneak here.
As for his reason for coming here, it was quite simple. Ever since he had witnessed Flossie single-handedly dealt with all the bodyguards, he had been in awe of his amazing big sister. However, after that, Flossie had been "confined" and he had not been able to see her. He only came to know that Flossie had left the house when he returned from school.
Therefore, anxious as he was, he had stealthily come here as soon as he put down his schoolbag. However, he never expected that as soon as he reached the front door, Flossie would open it, and she seemed quite irritated.
"I have to ask you something."
Flossie frowned slightly, not questioning Grady’s words any further.
She could be certain that Grady hadn’t heard anything, as she had noticed him as soon as he approached the door.
More importantly, the soundproofing in the room was really good. Although she and Glenn Hutchinson hadn’t been deliberately trying to keep their voices down, they hadn’t been arguing loudly either. Under the circumstances where the door and windows were all closed, even if someone were close to the door, it would be hard for them to hear what was being said clearly.
