Chapter 543 My Husband
Angela kept talking until she didn't even realize when she fell asleep.
Scott had his hand under his head, listening to Angela's voice getting softer and softer until it turned into light breathing.
However, Scott couldn't sleep. He just lay there staring at the ceiling.
It felt like something was tangled up inside him, but he couldn't figure it out.
It was already past 1 AM, but Scott wasn't sleepy at all.
Scott wanted to check the time on his phone but accidentally grabbed Angela's phone instead. When he lit up the screen, he saw over twenty messages from Caden.
"Where did you go?"
"We weren't done talking, Angela, are you still there?"
The latest message was just a moment ago. Scott replied directly, "She fell asleep."
Caden was very confused.
Caden didn't understand and sent a puzzled message: "She fell asleep? Then who are you?"
Scott turned off the phone and didn't look at any more messages from Caden.
The next morning, when Angela woke up, she instinctively looked at the sofa, but it was empty.
She sat up in bed and saw her phone placed next to her.
Angela glanced at the time; it was now 8 AM.
She opened her phone and saw several messages from Caden: "What's going on?"
"Who are you?"
"Hey, did you kidnap Angela?"
Angela sighed and saw the earlier message where Scott had replied that she fell asleep.
She didn't mind Scott's reply, but it did seem a bit ambiguous.
Angela replied, "Sorry, I really did fall asleep last night."
She couldn't remember when she fell asleep, only that she was talking to Scott.
To be precise, she was the one doing all the talking, and Scott wasn't really responding.
She remembered that Scott used to be quite talkative and easily angered, but now he seemed much more composed.
After that, she didn't know when she fell asleep.
Soon, Caden sent another message: "Who were you with last night? Did you sleep together?"
Angela replied, "My husband."
"Husband?"
"This is a long story. I'll explain it to you later. I have to go now."
After sending the message, Angela put away her phone, got out of bed, and went to wash up.
After washing up, she saw a pair of underwear in the bathroom trash can.
It must be Scott's. When did he throw it away?
Thinking of Scott made Angela think of last night, and thinking of last night made her blush.
Looking at her hand, Angela slapped it lightly. How did this damn hand end up grabbing Scott there!
Angela quietly left the room, and both Chase and Scott were already outside.
Chase was in the living room. Angela came out and greeted, "Good morning, Grandpa Coleman."
"Angela, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
"I've slept long enough. It's already 8 AM."
"It's only 8 AM. It's still early. You can sleep in a bit more."
There wasn't anything Angela needed to do at home. There were servants, and even if there weren't, Scott was there.
Angela just needed to relax and didn't have to do anything herself.
"No, I have to go to the office later."
"Let Scott take you. Scott's breakfast should be almost ready. Come and eat."
Angela said, "Is Scott cooking? That's so kind of him."
"What's there to be embarrassed about? In the future, tell him what you want to eat and let him cook. That's what men should do."
Scott came out of the kitchen with breakfast. Angela quickly lowered her head when their eyes met, not knowing how to face him.
"Angela, try this," Chase called out.
Angela said, "I know, I know. Thank you, Grandpa Coleman."
Scott's cooking was really good.
Even Chase said, "Scott is the best cook among the three brothers."
"Grandpa Coleman, I'm full," Angela said after a few bites.
Chase urged her to eat more, but Angela quickly ran off.
Chase was so kind to her that she couldn't bear to pretend to be in love with Scott to deceive him.
"Aren't you going to take Angela to the office?" Chase urged Scott.
Angela initially refused, but Scott insisted on taking her, probably because Chase wanted him to.
The whole way, Angela didn't say a word, feeling very awkward.
Finally, when they arrived at the studio, Angela quickly ran off.
Scott stood there, wondering if he was really that scary.
Jared had been in Skigeth for a while now, and with so many people around Grace, it was hard for him to make a move.
Moreover, with all those people, he couldn't even get close to Grace.
Meanwhile, Jane called Jared, "What have you been busy with lately? I heard the Coleman family went to Vesperia. What's going on there?"
Jane had been feeling increasingly uneasy lately. Although nothing had happened, she was just scared.
"Nothing's going on. Just relax," Jared reassured Jane.
If Jane knew about Grace, she would definitely arrange for someone to kill her.
However, when Elizabeth left Aetheria, she took something with her and disappeared. That thing had never surfaced.
Perhaps only Grace knew about it.
Jared believed Elizabeth wouldn't take that thing or secret to the grave. She must have left some clues, but only Grace would know.
So he needed to gain Grace's trust first. Unfortunately, with so many people around her, it was very difficult.
Hearing Jared's words, Jane felt a bit more at ease.
"I have some free time lately. I want to go on a trip," Jane said.
"Where to?" Jared asked.
"Vesperia. I've always heard it's a beautiful place. I want to see how beautiful it really is," Jane replied.
She wanted to see what was so special about this country.
Jared didn't expect Jane to want to come to Vesperia. If she came, she would definitely go online and easily find Grace's face.
"Not right now."
"Why not?"
"Because it's chaotic here. You have such a high status. Do you know how many people are watching Dorian? If you leave the palace and Aetheria, they will know. If something happens, who will take responsibility?"
Jared deliberately made it sound very serious to dissuade Jane from coming.
Jane thought about it and realized he was right.
Just then, Jane heard the door open: "Jane, what are you doing? Who are you talking to?"
It was the blonde, blue-eyed Robert: "We've been calling you everywhere. Dorian is already back."
