Top Actress Beware: Also Reborn Is Your CEO Husband!

Chapter 1094: Chapter 1094: What’s Up with This Man

Aurelia Shaw read over the words on the paper one by one, her peach blossom eyes turning slightly cool, the crimson corners of her lips hooking into a chilling arc. "Heh, they actually dare lay a hand on my man."

Hadrian Turner’s face flushed slightly red.

His chest started pounding violently.

He clearly knew she wasn’t talking about him, yet hearing that woman’s soft, faintly cold voice say those words still somehow felt... insanely attractive.

"I, I’ll help you pull up the surveillance along the route," Hadrian stammered, his face in front of the computer screen red enough to bleed, the rapidly flickering monitor reflecting that rather decent-looking, delicate face.

"Okay." Aurelia didn’t reject him with any fake modesty.

Given the situation right now, there was no room for that kind of hypocritical back-and-forth.

Aurelia saw makeup on the desk. She slathered on foundation thick and pale, smeared lipstick outside the line of her lips, drew her brows thick and black, and finally dotted a few "little pockmarks" on her face.

The woman in the mirror was ugly and unsightly.

Aurelia’s lips curled up in satisfaction.

In the mirror, a flash of icy sharpness darted through the eyes of that ugly, unsightly woman, and then that razor-edged aura was instantly concealed again.

Aurelia put on the black-framed glasses, checked that no one was outside, and pushed the door open.

-

There were a lot of labs in here. If she searched one by one, it was true that she might not find him even by nightfall. From the earlier files, Aurelia had seen that Mason Nightshade was currently in Lab A. Lab A—just from the name you could tell it was a key facility.

On the form, Mason Nightshade was labeled as a test subject.

What kind of experiment did these people want to do on her man?

Right now Aurelia only wanted to find Mason Nightshade.

She could not allow Mason Nightshade to stay in such a dangerous place, handled by a man who might have all kinds of dangerous things in his hands.

"Lab A..." Aurelia murmured the number on the door.

She was just about to push the door open when a voice suddenly sounded behind her: "What are you standing there dazed for? Hurry up and get in. Be careful or Dr. Xiao will punish you." Cool breath brushed against Aurelia’s ear.

Aurelia abruptly took two steps back, lowered her head, and deliberately put on a flustered, uneasy look. "S-sorry."

Aurelia lifted her eyes to secretly size the man up. A head of short white hair, the corners of his mouth curled up in a wicked smirk, and his pupils seemed a blackish red.

What was with this little-devil-looking guy? Why did he give her such a strong sense of danger?

Especially when he’d just spoken by her ear—it felt exactly like he wanted to eat her alive.

Absolutely not in any other sense of "eat," just purely, wanted to rip all your organs out and gobble them down dripping with blood.

She remembered this voice.

This was the man they called Brother Lin.

Brother Lin? With how eerily androgynous this man looked, no matter how you saw it, that "Brother" didn’t fit him at all.

Now that she knew who he was, Aurelia didn’t dare reveal the slightest flaw in front of him.

She hadn’t interacted with this man before, but there was no guarantee he wouldn’t recognize her.

Given her relationship with Mason Nightshade, it was highly likely this man had investigated her.

Wasn’t that exactly how the guy who’d captured her last time had been?

"Dr. Xiao actually took a woman into his lab," the man exclaimed in surprise. "Raise your head and let me take a look."

Raise your damn head!

Aurelia thought that to herself, but still lifted her head.

Seeing the way the man’s face instantly twisted in disgust, Aurelia secretly smiled in satisfaction, but on the surface she showed a hurt expression.

Alaric Wood burst out laughing. "Now I get why Dr. Xiao kept you, hahahaha, no wonder, no wonder."
