Kade’s hair looked like a drought had passed over it, and patches of scalp gleamed under the light like a barren battlefield.
His alluring peach blossom eyes were covered in dark circles.
Unlike Adrian’s ’elegant’ dark circles that enhanced his beauty, Kade’s dark circles made him resemble a panda. His face had shrunken and his eyes were red.
And as he halted mid stairs after spotting Adrian, he looked no less than a traumatized raccoon.
Ella was too stunned, ’’This... What happened to you?" She couldn’t hold the question back.
When he heard that voice, Kade’s gaze snapped in her direction.
And his face turned red. For a moment, he seemed to have forgotten Adrian’s presence as he turned his trembling finger towards Ella, ’’You dare... You actually dare...’’
Ella blinked at him innocently, ’’What did I do?"
Kade descended the stairs quickly, ready to skip the steps and jump past the four steps to reach towards Ella.
But his movements were obstructed when a long hand reached over and grabbed the back of his collar.
Adrian held Kade by his collar while Kade swung his legs forward.
The scene—
Ella slapped a hand over her mouth, but a traitorous "Pfft!" still escaped, quickly snowballing into uncontrollable giggles.
—was just too comical.
Ji Yan and the Butler were visibly turning blue from the effort of holding back their laughter, their faces twisted in the most unnatural expressions of seriousness.
"Brother, don’t hold me back today. I... need... to... even it out with her. You can’t be biased..."
"Behave.’’
From Ella’s perspective, Adrian put him down on the floor and scowled at him as if he was a misbehaving puppy.
Forget puppy... Even sweet Riri was never handled by Adrian like this.
’’Brother, you are saying this because you don’t know what she did to me...’’
Ella’s eyelid twitched.
"She is so evil that one cannot know her true colors if I don’t step up to reveal it today!"
"Heh~ There there, Third Young Master, I haven’t even stepped up to defend myself and you are already dead set on maligning my name.’’
Ella sauntered forward, ’’What did I do for you to accuse me in such a manner?"
In this life, she had worked hard to build a good image in front of Old Madam King. But with this guy spouting such nonsense, won’t all her hard work be for nothing?
What if the old lady thought that her own grandson was definitely more credible than her?
"You are acting like you don’t know it now? See this!" Kade stepped forward and shoved his phone in Ella’s hand.
Hmm? Did she really do something to this guy and forgot about it?
Doubting herself just a little, Ella glanced at the mail on Kade’s phone.
It displayed Kade’s marks:
[History: 0]
"See that? It’s all caused by you...!"
Ella frowned, ’’Wait... Wait!" she threw his phone back at him, ready to snap.
But from the corner of her eyes, Ella noticed the old butler’s smiling eyes. She almost tripped.
’’Cough...’’
"What? Got no words to defend yourself now?" Kade looked at her in disdain.

Bloody white lotus!
