Chapter 323: Spoiled Ella

His words had not even finished when the clicking sound of heels reverberated by the office room and Lilith entered the place.

"Ace, Dad had to return..." Her words trailed off.

The moment Lilith entered the office room, the sight that greeted her was of Ella half-nestled in Adrian’s arms as they sat on the couch.

But within a split-second, she resumed her calm demeanor as she spoke, "Dad had to return early to Country A for business affairs so he left me to deal with the land issue in Westra City."

As she spoke, she took out a file from her bag, ’I have spent quite a long time arranging this information. We can go through it now."

Adrian nodded slowly as he stood up.

Lilith’s steady gaze flicked to Ella as she said, ’This matter is highly confidential."

Ella nodded calmly as she pushed herself to her feet, "I will work outside then...."

Just as Ella had reached out to pick the laptop, Adrian grabbed her hand, "No need.."

Ella blinked as the man sat her back on the couch and ruffled the top of her head gently, ’Be good and work here."

Ella’s eyes twinkled. The words ’I am not a dog, stop ruffling me’ stayed on the edge of her tongue.

The discussion between Lilith and Adrian went on for quite some time.

But during this whole time, Lilith’s composure had shattered, bit by bit.

In the first 15 minutes, Ella accidentally played loud music while editing her videos. And she did not know how to turn it off in the new laptop, so Adrian personally helped her.

In the next 10 minutes, Ella started to doze off so Adrian helped her lie down on the couch.

In the next 15 minutes, she rubbed her hands in her sleep, and Adrian pulled a huge blanket out of somewhere and draped it over her.

Then, she seemed to be snoring lightly so Adrian asked Lilith to lower her voice.

And now that Lilith had finally lowered her voice to speak, Adrian was no longer looking at her or even listening to her.

Lilith followed Adrian’s gaze and glanced at Ella who was lying on the couch, wrapped up in a blanket snugly.

Suddenly, Ella kicked her leg out of the couch and rolled to the side.

For a moment, it looked like she was about to fall.

But Adrian got up and walked off to the couch. He gently cradled the woman and pulled her into his arms, placing her in a comfortable position.

"Ace, I..."

Adrian looked at Lilith, motioning a small finger to his lips.

Lilith froze as she looked at the man but Adrian did not spare her another gaze.

A man like Ace... would really spoil a woman to this extent?

Lilith’s lips thinned as she walked out of the office room.

"Miss Quinn., are you done so soon...?" Ji Yan was astonished when Lilith walked past him without even acknowledging his words.

He had never seen the woman lose her composure like this. Unless....

Ji Yan glanced at the closed door of the office room and thought... Miss Quinn must have seen something she couldn’t tolerate.

"Did you confirm her background?" Lilith asked again. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
