Chapter 10 Pretty Adorable

This neighborhood was the most expensive area in Riversdale. Every floor was a standalone unit, and each unit cost millions. Even the rent came at a steep price.

“Yes, Grandma. Thanks for the ride. I’ll get going now.” Nancy bade farewell to Martha politely.

Watching her walk away, Martha murmured, “It seems Nancy can get by just fine on her own without having to return to the Lidell family.”

The driver said, “Mrs. Lidell Senior, I, too, think Ms. Nancy is better than Ms. Raine. She’s real and never gives off a false air.”

“You can see it, but the blind–as–bats couple can’t,” Martha replied, her voice dripping with disdain.

Back at home, Nancy was surprised to receive a text message from Andrew.

It read, “Nancy, are you back home? If you want to move back to the Lidell residence, just say it. Your room’s always ready for you.”

That sounded a little fake.

Nancy replied with a perfunctory “Yes” and proceeded to reply to her friends‘ text messages in their group chat.

Hillary Morgan: “Nance, how’s life in Riversdale?”

Nancy: “I’m fine. What about you? Is shooting going smoothly?”

Hillary: “It’s going well! I just miss you, that’s all. Once I wrap up, I’ll come you

Yelena Hawthorne: “Count me in! Nance, my dad has been forcing me to work

at his company recently. I’m dying here!”

As she lowered her head, busy typing out a reply on her phone, a towering figure walked in and blocked the light above her head. She instinctively looked up and met the man’s gaze.

“Gideon?” Nancy could barely hide her surprise.

“Do you live here too?” Gideon’s voice was deep, and he carried a refined air about him. “Which floor are you on?”

“Yes, I live on the 16th floor,” Nancy replied.

It would be awkward to remain silent in the elevator, so Nancy struck up a conversation. “Did you come here for a project too?”

“Yes, I should be here for quite a while.” Gideon slipped one hand into his pocket, exuding a natural air of nobility. The light caught his profile, making it even more striking.

She had only just moved here and hadn’t planned on getting a car for herself, so she usually drove the company car.

His car was a black Rolls–Royce, which fitted his calm and refined demeanor. After settling into the passenger’s seat, Nancy remarked, “I had no idea you’d drive personally.”
