Chapter 67: Chapter 67
He was the one who brought Seraphina Redgrave out of the restricted area, providing her with food and clothing, and didn’t expose her little tricks. Her courage was growing bigger.
Did she want to borrow his knife to kill someone?
In Seraphina Redgrave’s eyes, what is he? A handy tool?
The ginger tea was knocked over, the bowl rolled across the floor, and the spoon clinked loudly.
Lightning slashed across the sky, making the entire firmament as bright as daylight.
Nanny Lynch and Granny Coleman turned pale instantly, standing by the side, not daring to breathe heavily.
Why did he suddenly lose his temper?
Seraphina Redgrave didn’t understand what was wrong with Ethan Sterling, but she couldn’t react now and could only sit on the sofa in a daze.
"Think you’re so impressive, huh? Fine, I’ll play along with your act."
Ethan Sterling didn’t look at Seraphina Redgrave again, turned around, and stepped into the rain. The bodyguard quickly held an umbrella for Ethan Sterling.
Seraphina Redgrave still sat in place, her mind racing, trying to figure out what was really going on. Granny Coleman somewhat displeasedly blamed Nanny Lynch, "What’s going on, Young Master Sterling was already in a bad mood today, and you kept pushing Miss as if she was going against Young Master Sterling. Now look, Young Master Sterling is angry, isn’t he?"
"How would I know that Young Master Sterling would get angry all of a sudden?" Nanny Lynch was almost crying, "I thought Young Master Sterling was in a good mood after seeing Miss this time."
From the moment Miss entered, Young Master Sterling had never frowned at her.
"Young Master Sterling’s thoughts aren’t something people like us can guess." Granny Coleman sat beside Seraphina Redgrave, sighed, and patted Seraphina Redgrave’s long hair, "Miss, it’s okay, when Young Master Sterling calms down, he’ll come back."
Seraphina Redgrave listened inattentively, wondering if Ethan Sterling was angry not because Nanny Lynch urged her to drink ginger tea.
It certainly wasn’t that simple.
After pondering for a moment, she stood up and walked to the room’s entrance.
Nanny Lynch and Granny Coleman were somewhat surprised.
Seraphina Redgrave walked to the door, looking at Ethan Sterling’s back. He stood in front of the gravesite, while Mia Redgrave walked in holding a pale pink umbrella, wearing a small white dress paired with deliberately youthful makeup, looking quite playful.
Ethan Sterling stood there, motionless.
In the rain, Seraphina Redgrave held the umbrella on her shoulder, slowly walking towards Ethan Sterling.
Seraphina Redgrave looked indifferently at the pair, while Mia tilted her head, pretending to be cute, "Young Master Sterling."
Ethan Sterling still didn’t move.
Standing at the door, Seraphina Redgrave could only see Ethan Sterling’s back, clueless about the expression on his face now.
Mia Redgrave saw the two-meter-tall stone tablets.
She halted, gazing at the pictures on the gravestones.
She almost immediately realized this was Ethan Sterling’s private cemetery, quickly put away the umbrella, joined her hands, and made three bows.
The rain instantly drenched her thoroughly.
Mia Redgrave remained motionless; she knew what made her look best. Back when she chased Leo Lynch, it took a lot of effort.
After bowing, Mia Redgrave stood in the pouring rain, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Ethan Sterling, "Young Master Sterling, this..."
Ethan Sterling’s eyes were filled with coldness.
Before she could finish speaking, Ethan Sterling picked her up and turned to walk towards the house.
Mia Redgrave softly exclaimed, dazedly looking at the man holding her. His deep eyes were clouded with unfathomable emotions.
Ethan Sterling was the head of the largest conglomerate in Z country, so how could he easily let people understand his thoughts?
However, seeing his behavior now, she should have a real chance to become Ethan Sterling’s woman, right?
Thinking of this, Mia Redgrave obediently let her head fall onto the man’s shoulder, content to let him carry her away.
Seraphina Redgrave stood at the door, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"Why did Young Master Sterling bring in that woman from who knows where?" Nanny Lynch was a bit worried, "Isn’t Young Master Sterling supposed to be dedicated to Miss?"
"Alas, who can influence Young Master Sterling’s thoughts? Moreover, Miss is just... slow and silly, and Young Master Sterling changing his taste isn’t unusual, right?"
Granny Coleman was somewhat unwilling to accept reality, almost in tears as she watched Seraphina Redgrave’s unmoving back, "Look, where is Miss slow and silly? She doesn’t even want to move after seeing Young Master Sterling take another woman away."
Seraphina Redgrave was indeed somewhat angry, but it wasn’t out of jealousy.
She didn’t quite understand. Didn’t Ethan Sterling just say he was most annoyed by pretentious women? Mia Redgrave’s antics just now almost made her sick, yet Ethan Sterling had no reaction and even carried Mia Redgrave into the room.
Saying he didn’t like pretentiousness, yet unable to help being attracted—Leo Lynch and Ethan Sterling both had the same demeanor.
This time, she indeed miscalculated.
Men’s words indeed couldn’t be trusted.
She even thought Ethan Sterling would teach Mia Redgrave a lesson, but unexpectedly, he actually brought Mia Redgrave to Ethan Sterling.
Once Mia Redgrave truly secures her position, it will be difficult for her to seek revenge.
Seraphina Redgrave returned to the sofa, sighing deeply in her heart.
"Miss, don’t be upset. The gentleman is only momentarily interested in her, he will surely return to your side." Googlᴇ search novel-fire.ɴet
Nanny Lynch and Granny Coleman sighed while comforting Seraphina Redgrave.
Alas, who could tell them? She really wasn’t upset because Ethan Sterling had another woman.
She just felt that this time the plan was flawed, and as for the rest, she didn’t like him at all, so why would she care how many women he had?
Ethan Sterling didn’t speak, and Seraphina Redgrave could only obediently stay put.
Seraphina Redgrave simply sat in the door frame, looking at the gravestones in the rain curtain. Slowly, her gaze drifted to the place where Ethan Sterling disappeared with Mia Redgrave.
A place even further from the gravestone.
They had been inside for a long time without any movement.
Could they really be completing the union of life so quickly?
It couldn’t be, right? This was a cemetery after all.
Another flash of lightning, and the rain came down harder.
The thunder roared sky-shatteringly,
Seraphina Redgrave, finding it really boring, actually leaned against the door frame and fell into a resting state. Nanny Lynch and Granny Coleman, looking at Seraphina Redgrave’s back, thought she was waiting for Ethan Sterling to return.
The rain fell harder and harder, enveloping the entire private estate in a rain curtain.
The heavy rain seemed to fall into Mia Redgrave’s heart, each raindrop striking inside, one after another, distinctly audible.
She cozily snuggled in Ethan Sterling’s arms, letting him carry her into the house.
Ethan Sterling was a renowned figure throughout Z country, many people wished to cling to him, yet now she, Mia Redgrave, was actually being held by this man.
Before Mia Redgrave could immerse herself in her fantasies, the man suddenly let go, and she fell straight down.
Mia Redgrave nearly cried from the pain, sitting on the ground and looking pitifully at Ethan Sterling.
Ethan Sterling stood at the door, his chiseled face filled with an extremely unpleasant expression, his whole body emitting a chilliness.
Mia Redgrave felt like her heart was about to leap out through her throat, a fine layer of cold sweat forming on her back, but she thoughtfully opened her mouth, her voice lightly trembling and stirring compassion, "Young Master Sterling, what do you mean by this, I’ve fallen."
