Chapter 154

After stepping out of the car, Seth casually tossed the car keys to a

bodyguard as he confidently strode into the main building. Seated in the

middle of the room, Spencer squinted his eyes, observing the young man

who had just entered.

Seth exuded a cold aura; his eyes were aloof, and every step he took was

firm. With a nonchalant attitude, he plopped into a seat next to Spencer,

unfazed by the scrutiny. “Is there something wrong, Grandpa?”

Spencer’s scrutinizing gaze didn’t bother Seth, and he didn’t even spare a

glance at Christina and Lara. He hit his walking stick on the ground with a

disgruntled look. “It’s so late. What were you doing outside?” Sniffing the air,

he sensed something amiss. “You smell like cigarettes. Have you been

somewhere you shouldn’t have?”

Without flinching, Seth covered his mouth with his fist and coughed tiredly.

“Our family runs a large business, and it’s not surprising that I have to work

overtime occasionally. It’s already late, and it’s too much trouble to drag

Jordan out of the house to be my chauffeur. There’s no need for that.”

Although Seth’s words seemed considerate of his employee, upon closer

inspection, it sounded more like he was complaining about being called over

by Spencer in the middle of the night. When Lara and Christina deciphered

the meaning behind his words, they felt delighted and straightened their

backs simultaneously.
