Chapter 341
After getting home and muddling through dinner, Princess Xan marched upstairs and angrily took out her phone, deciding she would rather be clingy.
Good for you, Orion. It’s almost 11 PM and you still haven’t called back? Another call, and if he dared to ignore it again.
“Xannie, what’s up?”
This time he didn’t hang up, but his tone was cold, betraying a hint of being too busy to bother with her.
“Orion, didn’t you see my calls?!”
“Too busy, I didn’t notice them.”
“Still busy?” Xanthea frowned, her voice a bit aggrieved, “You’ve been busy all day. Are you still at the office?”
“On a plane.”
“Plane? Why are you on a plane?”
“To see someone important.”
Great!
Hearing this, Xanthea felt a surge of anger. He hadn’t contacted her all day, didn’t return her calls, and now he was off to see “someone very important” Fine, let him go see them. She wouldn’t bother with him anymore!
Orion: “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing!”
She replied angrily.
“Really?”
“Of course, really. Go see her! I’ll hang-”
Before she could finish, she heard a low chuckle from the other end, his magnetic and captivating voice sounding extremely pleasant.
He’s laughing?
She would not be bothering him, and he was happy about it?
“Why is Xannie tearing the curtains?”
Xanthea looked at the lace curtain in her hand, which she had already torn a hole in, “None of your business. These are my curtains, not
yours.”
w did he know she was tearing the curtains?!
Wait, how
She turned to look outside and immediately saw a stunning sight view.
The night was calm, and the bright moonlight pierced through the clouds, casting cool, soft beams. The light filtered through the dense foliage of a tree by the lake, creating dappled circles on the ground,
illuminating the tall, elegant figure of a man.
He wore a well–tailored dark coat, the hem swaying gently in the breeze.
At that moment, he was holding his phone, slightly tilting his head to look at her. The interplay of shadows and moonlight made his already striking features even more chiseled, especially with the profound smile in his eyes, as dark and intense as if an abyss threatening to drown anyone who gazed into them.
Orion?!
How was he in the backyard?
Wasn’t he on a plane, going to see someone/important.
“Xannie, I miss you”
Orion looked up at her, his buming gaze brighter than the moonlight.
“I miss you too!”
Without a second thought, Xanthea dropped her phone and bolted downstairs.
“Miss?”
At the staircase, Zora was bumped by her in her haste.
“Auntie, sorry!”
“Miss, where are you going to this late?”

Chapter 341
“I’m going to the garden to admire the flowers!”
“Admire the flowers? It’s pitch dark, what can you see? Do you want me to turn on the garden lights?”
“No, no, NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
definitely not!”
“Then at least put on a coat, it’s cold outside.”
In the misty, dewy, vibrant garden, Xanthea arrived like a fluttering butterfly, darting straight for the most beautiful “flower” there.
“Orion!”
“Honey”
Orion caught her in a tight embrace, burying his head to inhale the faint, sweet scent of vanilla, finally alleviating a day’s worth of intense longing.
