Chapter 22 Your So–called Honorable Father

Peyton was focusing on the documents. Nolan’s sudden question scared her so much that she fell to the ground, the documents in her hands scattering everywhere.

She wondered, “Nolan usually came back late at night. Why did he return so early today?”

Although Peyton was still Nolan’s nominal wife, her sneaking into his study was disgraceful. Moreover, she knew that he hated others playing tricks behind his back the most.

Nolan walked toward Peyton while taking off his suit jacket unhurriedly. He was born into a wealthy family, and his every move captured elegance and dignity.

Peyton couldn’t think straight when she saw Nolan take off his clothes. She wanted to escape, yet something seemed to root her on the spot.
