When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster

Chapter 354: It’s Not Her Trap, It’s Their Scheme

"Not really." The girl looked up at the man sitting opposite her, "I’m with him, having steak at The Seaview Restaurant."

"..." The old man was stunned for a few seconds, "So just now... did he hear all those things I said?"

The girl giggled awkwardly, "I had it on speakerphone, he heard it."

The old man let out a heavy sigh!

"Ah, Faye, don’t take it to heart. With me around, let’s see who dares to cause trouble!! If that boy dares to meet his ex-girlfriend again, I’ll break his legs!"

Adrian Lancaster was also embarrassed, he raised an eyebrow and buried his head in his food.

On this end, Faye Turner was constantly comforting the old man, "Grandpa, there’s been a misunderstanding. It’s not like what the media reported, he’s already explained it to me."

She was trying to calm the old man’s anger, but he was still upset, and there was a sense of disappointment, "Meeting that woman, that’s a fact! An explanation is just an excuse! Unless the photos are fake!"

"Grandpa!" Adrian Lancaster couldn’t help but reach over the table for his phone, "What do you mean by that? Faye’s not even mad, yet you’re still stoking the fire."

"You brat! You’re the one who started the fire! Don’t blame me for poking it! Apologize properly to her!"

"..."

In the Lancaster Family’s ancient house.

Not far behind the old man, at the entrance of the tea room, Eliza Hayes dressed in simple clothes, stared fixedly at the old man’s back, having overheard the phone conversation just now.

There was a sentence that made her extremely uncomfortable!

"Let me tell you! Adrian Lancaster! Faye Turner was brought to me by fate! She’s a treasure! If you let her down, even heaven won’t forgive you!"

"When you wake up, maybe your company’s market value will suddenly evaporate! Worse, you could find yourself plagued with illness!!"

Eliza Hayes’ face was cold and her gaze was as deep as an ancient well, emitting a strange chill.

Driving Faye Turner away couldn’t be delayed any longer, if it dragged on, she’d truly seep into Adrian Lancaster’s heart.

Even Sienna couldn’t help, which was something Eliza hadn’t anticipated.

At The Seaview Restaurant, Faye Turner had reassured grandpa very well—

"Grandpa, don’t be angry, the media just loves to make trouble, a lot of it isn’t true, and Adrian isn’t like that. We’re fine."

"As long as you’re fine, grandpa is happy!" The old man finally smiled, "When you’re off early, come home for dinner together? Let’s turn the page on this, and if he upsets you, just tell grandpa!"

"Okay, grandpa."

"Then grandpa won’t disturb your meal any longer, goodbye."

"Goodbye, grandpa."

Facing the sea breeze and eating pasta, Adrian Lancaster listened to Faye Turner soothe grandpa with each word, growing even more fond of her.

This girl truly had high emotional intelligence.

"I have a question." After she hung up the phone, Adrian Lancaster asked, "Did you see the photo of me and her at the cafe before the news came out?"

"Yes." Faye Turner confessed, "She showed me the photo when she approached me."

So, how did Sienna get the photo?

If the media accidentally caught it, the photo wouldn’t be with her, and it would have been released immediately.

Smart Faye Turner saw through his speculation, she smiled, "Adrian, haven’t you realized, you’ve fallen into her trap?"

Adrian Lancaster recalled the message he received—

Sienna met with his mother, and he felt it wasn’t just her trap, but both of theirs.

He truly couldn’t understand why Sienna had become like this... so eager to rise up? She had left so decisively back then.

Terminal illness?

Had she recovered so well after such a serious illness in just a few years?

And what was his mother’s ultimate plan?
