Chapter 1009 Music To My Ears

“Your aunt is a kind person. We are truly grateful for how well she treats you.”

Nadine gently brushed away the stray hairs from her temples while speaking in a tender tone.

At the mention of Adriana, a faint smile surfaced in Neera’s eyes.

And then… she left for a long time and didn’t come back! I waited and waited, but there was no sign of her. When I tried to call her, I just couldn’t get through…”

Neera frowned. “Where does that person live?”

But that person, no matter what, wouldn’t admit that the director had been to see him. Instead, he insisted that he hadn’t seen Director Lopez today. At first, I didn’t suspect him, thinking that Director Lopez must have had some urgent matter to attend to, and that was why she didn’t return. But just as
