Glenn Hutchinson remained in the same spot, watching quietly as Flossie Wright calmly walked in between the couple. There wasn’t a hint of panic visible in her from the beginning to the end, all it took were a few words to successfully shift the couple’s focus onto herself. Under the soft, dim streetlight, she skillfully adapted to her surroundings, and effortlessly crafted a new role, and directed a flawless scene.
However, not even two minutes had passed, when the slightly admiring look on Glenn Hutchinson’s face, suddenly turned cold.
Flossie lent onto the man’s shoulder quite affectionately. Every motion she made, clearly conveyed her scornful and provocative attitude as if she and the man were sharing some exceptional relationship. Amidst the woman’s outbreak of emotion, she calmly fished out the man’s phone. As for the man, who was also the party involved, seemed utterly dazed by Flossie’s strong cognitive abilities.
Damn, it was just a normal argument, what was going on?!
With a twitch at the corner of his mouth and a furrow of his brows, Glenn Hutchinson, without any hesitation, began to stride towards them. He timely pulled Flossie away from the blasting fury of the woman, and in the face of the couple’s gazing eyes, he swept Flossie into his arms in an intimate stance.
Flossie, immediately snapped back to reality, then tossed the phone to the husband. With an expression of composed ease and not a trace of guilt, she confidently said, "Just pulling your leg."
Glenn Hutchinson’s expression turned grimmer, he didn’t speak a word, but left carrying her.
Meanwhile, the couple that was on the verge of divorce was left shell-shocked as they watched the duo leave. They felt as if their intelligence was standing on the verge of collapse. They failed to understand anything.
What on earth just happened?!
After some time had passed, both of them finally sorted out their thoughts. The simultaneous rise of anger in their hearts immediately brought about their reconciliation -
Er, they...
In all likelihood, they were fooled, right?
Elsewhere, facing Glenn Hutchinson’s gloomy face, Flossie knitted her eyebrows in confusion without understanding the reason, but as she was still physically drained, she had no intention to quarrel with Glenn Hutchinson. Since, being carried required no effort, she simply closed her eyes to rest.
The villa was quite a distance away from here. Glenn Hutchinson, who was initially in a bad mood, glanced down at the woman in his arms and saw that she was resting with her eyes closed as if nothing generated concern in her.
With a slight change in expression, Glenn Hutchinson’s unfortunately masked look, finally resumed its composed neutrality. Nearly undetectable frustration flashed in his eyes, he tightened his hold around her, quickened his steps, and headed towards the Wright Family’s front gate.
Since they had already left quite late, the time had progressed well into the night by the time they returned. Most of the Wright Family members had already retired for the night. Although it was Glenn Hutchinson’s first visit and it seemed like he hadn’t wandered around, but he had already become familiar with the layout of the villa. Getting in was nothing but a walk in the park.
However, the resting Flossie, quickly opened her eyes when she felt the warmth of the living room, jumped down from Glenn Hutchinson’s arms quickly and stood by his side in an instant. After regaining some of her strength, she was much more agile.
Meanwhile, the maid who had been waiting for them to return breathed a sigh of relief as she saw them enter.
"Miss Wright, Mr. Hutchinson, you have returned."
The maid, who earlier served dinner to Flossie, had been given orders by Regan Wright to wait for their return before retiring for the night. She had given up hopes of Flossie and Glenn Hutchinson returning. However, they actually showed up which came as a strange relief to the maid. She exhaled a sigh of relief.
"You may rest now."
Flossie instructed the maid. After exchanging brief pleasantries and seemingly understanding the situation, Flossie, without lingering around, left Glenn Hutchinson behind and headed upstairs.
After continuously running for several hours, and enduring Glenn Hutchinson’s harsh words and gaze, she was almost drained of energy. At this point, she couldn’t bear to be near Glenn Hutchinson, hence the faster she could walk away, the better.
However, what she hadn’t anticipated was that soon after she had taken a shower upon her return, there was a knock at her door.
"What now?"
Pulling open the door, to no surprise she saw Glenn Hutchinson. Flossie’s gaze instantly turned cold as ice.
Glenn, who had changed into his robe, had no qualms about directly walking into the room, and while Flossie wasn’t paying attention, closed the door behind. He raised an eyebrow towards Flossie, "To sleep with you."
