The Consortium's Heir

Chapter 313

Chapter 313

Maurice and Edward’s eyes locked on like magnets for the longest time.

As Maurice was about to speak up, he suddenly heard a disdainful snort from the passenger seat ahead.

Felix had remained silent the entire time but secretly thought, "Hah! That Edward is practically a dummy at this point.I doubt he'll respond to Maurice."

Maurice’s heart almost fell out of his chest when he reached to touch Edward’s shoulder.

As soon as he detected an abnormality with the latter, he retreated two steps away and withdrew his hand.

"y-You! W-What on earth are you? How did you possess Mr.Elliott? H-He was just sitting next to me a moment ago!" he muttered.

His voice tremored so much that it took Edward a long while to understand what he was saying.

As Edward thought about how to respond, new emotions and speculations arose in Maurice’s mind.

When Edward finally composed himself, prepared an adequate response, and turned to look at the boy, he found the latter retreating while curling into a ball like a frightened animal.

That instantly left Edward lost for words.His forehead creased with a frown at Maurice.

Instead of voicing his appalled feelings, he tried to keep quiet.

Still, helplessness grew like a hurricane in his heart.So, he took a few deep breaths as he massaged his temple.

"If you keep behaving like that, I can’t guarantee I won’t throw you out on the streets this once."

After saying that, Edward reached out to grab Maurice’s belt, dragging the latter closer to him again.
