Chapter 1063: Chapter 1063: Who’s Intimidating Whom Now?
After speaking, Hadrian Turner immediately regretted it.
Aurelia Shaw was currently in danger, and he deliberately added to her troubles.
"If it weren’t for you, I might really die here without anyone knowing."
Aurelia’s words made Hadrian Turner’s heart skip a beat.
Before Hadrian could say anything, Aurelia’s voice rang out again: "I can’t continue talking with you; they’ll get suspicious. If there’s anything urgent, let me know."
Afraid of further disturbing Aurelia, Hadrian quickly replied, "Okay!"
After ending the call with Hadrian, Aurelia took a stroll around the yard. Besides the surveillance cameras, she found nothing else.
The owner of the villa had not shown up either.
Could it be that the other party truly doesn’t intend to appear?
Aurelia’s brow arched, and for some reason, she suddenly felt like giving the other party a warning.
Having been invited here with such a grand gesture, only not to meet her, when had she ever let herself be at such a disadvantage, allowing others to take the lead?
Aurelia suddenly glanced at a camera under a flower.
Her slender fingers gently caressed the delicate petals, a slight smile at the corners of her eyes, but despite the smile, it did not reach her eyes, the red lips curving into a chilly, scarlet smirk.
The person behind the camera was taken aback.
The butler beside him was also stunned, feeling a chill climbing up his neck as he looked at the woman’s enigmatic and glamorous face, "Did she find out?"
The elder standing with hands behind his back snorted, "With such little tricks, you expect to fool her? Even I wouldn’t be fooled."
The butler remained silent, inwardly grumbling: You’re someone who has weathered storms, but this young girl, what does she weigh in comparison to you? Yet you compare her to yourself, claiming you’re just here to observe, but clearly, you’ve already acknowledged her.
The elder, watching the camera, saw the woman’s cool and sharp demeanor, and his lips curled up with satisfaction.
...
Aurelia felt a bit frustrated inside.
She intended to give the other party a warning.
However, half a day passed since that warning, yet the other side hadn’t reacted at all?
Could it be they hadn’t noticed?
Having invited her here, however, without appearing, they must be watching her from the other side of the camera.
If they indeed saw it, then there’s only one possibility left: the other party was more patient than she was.
Aurelia already knew the other person was not simple, so this conclusion didn’t disappoint her at all.
Since she was here, she might as well settle in.
Having strolled around the yard appreciating the flowers and plants, she comfortably sat down on a wooden chair in the garden.
A teapot was placed on the wooden table.
Aurelia reached out and touched it; the teapot was still warm.
Was it left here for her by the other party?
Or had they been here before her, and left after hearing her arrival?
No matter the reason, until the other party appeared, Aurelia decided not to make any unnecessary guesses.
She poured herself a cup of tea, held the cup leisurely, and started drinking.
The place wasn’t too bad, with the fragrance of flowers, birds singing, nice scenery, and good tea.
Behind the surveillance camera.
The elder sitting on the sofa curled his lips, snorted, "To think she knows the tea ceremony, didn’t waste my tea set."
"..." The butler beside him remained silent.
"Arrange for her to be sent back home," the elder said.
The butler was taken aback, "Send her back already?"
"Or should we keep her, and watch her have dinner?" the elder retorted.
The butler shut his mouth, refraining from speaking, inwardly grumbling: Judging by your manner, that indeed seemed possible.
Nevertheless, the butler complied and proceeded accordingly.
