Chapter 474: Chapter 474: Staying and Not Leaving
Northtown, which had just entered autumn not long ago, was still somewhat warm.
Summer Sutton was wearing a thin summer dress.
Adrian Walyon’s hand reached over, exploring her body, akin to directly touching her skin.
Even the warmth in the palm of his hand, she could clearly feel.
Summer Sutton had drunk alcohol, but she was only hazy-minded, not completely intoxicated.
Instinctively stepping back a few paces, she wanted to dodge away.
Adrian Walyon raised his eyes, casting a chilly glance at her.
His gaze was incredibly sharp, as if warning her that if she dared to retreat, he’d immediately cut her down.
Threatened by him, Summer Sutton truly felt a bit scared and obediently stood still.
Adrian Walyon hooked an arm around her waist, pulling her into his embrace, continuing to search her body.
Actually, the dress Summer Sutton wore didn’t have pockets.
Not many girls would put keys in their clothes pockets during summer, making them bulge.
She didn’t know if Adrian Walyon was doing it on purpose, or simply unaware of this.
Frozen in his arms for quite a while, Adrian Walyon presumably was done with searching, before unzipping her handbag and rummaging inside.
Swiftly finding the keys, he unlocked the door, picked up Summer Sutton and carried her indoors, placing her on the sofa.
He flipped on all the lights in the house with a click, but even after sending her home, he showed no intention of leaving.
Turning to shut the door of Summer Sutton’s apartment, standing within the room, he even scrutinized the space.
The apartment Summer Sutton lived in was truly small, only about sixty square meters, possibly equivalent to the size of a master bedroom in Morning Garden.
The furnishings within were quite exquisite, with many green plants and small trinkets beloved by girls.
For a small apartment, the flowers and plants indeed brought life.
Though simple, the place was rich with the essence of her life, brimming with her presence.
Adrian Walyon scrutinized the room over and again, not only stayed, but even sat down.
Summer Sutton, standing at a distance, reminded him, "You can leave now!"
Adrian Walyon hadn’t even gotten a divorce certificate with her; now standing in his wife’s room, why on earth should he leave!
In the past, he hadn’t disturbed her life, adhering to principles, giving her time, granting her freedom.
However, now that he’d come, as long as he didn’t want to leave, there were a thousand reasons to stay.
Ignoring Summer Sutton, he took his phone to the balcony to make a call.
He seemed to be giving instructions to an assistant; Summer Sutton felt uncomfortable in her stomach, having drunk on an empty stomach, and didn’t listen closely.
After finishing the call with his assistant, Adrian Walyon received several more calls from clients.
As the founder of the massive Morningview Group, he was genuinely busy.
After delivering Summer Sutton home, he stood in the room for about half an hour, answering six to seven calls.
Summer Sutton initially wondered if a client might suddenly call, causing Adrian Walyon to leave due to urgent matters.
However, she was clearly disappointed.
Half an hour passed, and Adrian Walyon was still on the phone, just standing on the balcony talking business with clients, not moving at all.
Obviously, he showed no intention of leaving.
About ten minutes later, the doorbell of Summer Sutton’s apartment suddenly rang, and Adrian Walyon opened the door on her behalf.
Standing outside was the assistant named Fang; upon seeing Summer Sutton inside, the assistant greeted her, "Hello, Miss Sutton!"
His attitude was extremely courteous, smiling slightly, as if afraid of disturbing Adrian Walyon, handing over the late-night snack he’d bought before quickly leaving.
