Chapter 376
Chapter 376 He Wasn’t Angry
I…
Alright, rich people are indeed extravagant.
I was truly tired, I didn’t talk much on the way. Daniel was a man of few words, if I didn’t initiate a
conversation, he, like Walter, could basically stay quiet all the way.
When I arrived at the hotel, it was already two in the morning. Just as I parked the car, I unexpectedly
saw Walter standing coldly at the
entrance.
With the light behind him, I couldn’t see his expression, but I could feel that his mood was not good.
I quickly got out of the car, my first instinct was that Walter was angry. I needed to exin to him why I
came back sote. As I approached him, looking at his restrained expression, I said, “Walter, I…”
“Are you alright?” He spoke before I did, looking me up and down. Seeing that I was fine, he then said,
“Let’s go, go back and rest.”
After speaking, he/she pulled me into the hotel.
I looked back at Daniel who had just gotten out of the car, his face expressionless as he watched us.
Sebastian was also waiting outside, so I wasn’t worried about him. Feeling a bit embarrassed, I waved
at him to indicate that everything was fine.
Returning to the room, Walter didn’t ask me where I had been that night, he just said in a low voice,
“Get some rest early, call me if you need anything.” ? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Seeing him about to leave, I grabbed his arm and said, “After I finished talking with Rachel, she left
without having dinner with me. I
happened to run into Daniel and invited him to join me. I had ordered a lot of dishes and didn’t want to
waste them. I was supposed toe back after eating, but then I found a little female cat on the road
that had been abused. I wanted to save it, so Daniel and I took it to a pet hospital in the city. We didn’t
After exining everything in one breath, I looked up at him, unsure if he would still be angry.
He looked at me, silent for a good while, his face no longer looking upset. After a long time, he lifted his
hand to tuck the stray hair on my forehead behind my ear, and then he spoke, “Are you trying to exin
to me now?”
I was mute, wasn’t that obvious?
Seeing the smile creeping up on his lips, I felt a bit embarrassed. But then again, our rtionship at the
moment seemed to be nothing more than that of ex-spouses. I didn’t need to exin myself foring
homete at night with a man.
With that thought, I took a step back, looking at him and said, “You can go back now, thank you for
worrying about my safety, I’m fine
now.”
Seeing my reaction, his smile didn’t fade. He said, “Too much has happened today. Keep your phone
on at all times, Tabatha. I can’t guarantee that those who are after me won’t hurt you.”
Recalling the ident that happened today, I asked, “How is the investigation going?”
His eyes darkened a bit as he said, “The person who tampered with the

cable car has been found. It was a staff member of the scenic area. He insisted that it was a mistake
he made carelessly. He has been taken away by the police. The person who jumped from the cable car
is dead, and the family is still causing a fuss. We still don’t know what caused the bungee cord to
break, and the deceased’s family is still in contact.”
A scenic spot, two deaths in one day, and both urred while they were having fun. I knew he was
probably at his wits’ end at this moment. After this incident, the scenic spot would be closed for
rectification, and it would have a wider impact.
I couldn’t help him. Looking up at him, I said, “Even if the person behind this is found now, the losses
can’t be avoided. What are you nning to do about grandma and the others?”
The elderly person was frightened today, it probably wasn’t a good idea to stay any longer.
He pursed his lips and said, “I’ve arranged for someone to take them back to River City tomorrow,
you…”
“I’ll stay,” I spoke up first, looking at him, “With Alexander at the Conner Group, I don’t have to worry.”
Meeting his warm gaze, I stuttered a bit, saying, “It’s not easy for me to get out, it’s my first time in
Springbury, there are many ces I haven’t been to or yed in, I want to explore more, besides… the
little female cat I picked up hasn’t been discharged from the hospital yet, when she is, I need to settle
her down, so… I’m not in a hurry to go back.”
A smile yed at the corners of his mouth, his dark eyes fixed on me. His voice was low and husky as
he said, “Alright, I understand.”
