Chapter212
Who could have imagined that not long ago, the new lady had to tread carefully and please Mr. Winford as she walked through the doors of Sunset Vista?
But how long had it been? It was then Mr. Winford’s turn to hold and comfort someone.
After having breakfast and knowing that Winford had something to deal with. Ophelia did not continue to cling to him. She jumped out of hist arms and went out for a walk.
Before the footsteps had even taken a step forward, the hand wast suddenly pulled.
Winford restrained something in his gaze and said, “It won’t disturb me; Lia could go to my study to read.”
She usually liked to read at home. Although she had her own small study, many medical books were still moved to his place.
Ophelia shook his hand and said, “But I wanted to go for a walk.”
She felt uncomfortable, but just sitting still would make her feel worse, so she wanted to move around a bit.
She knew what he was worried about and added, “I just went to the garden, and I won’t go anywhere else!”
His study faced the garden, and as long as she didn’t run too far, he could see exactly what she was doing from upstairs.
Winford then released his grip and rubbed her head, saying, “Then go
ahead.”
Ophelia ran to the garden, instinctively looking up and glancing in the direction of the study. She saw the man standing by the window, his tall figure handsome and charming. Even from a distance, she could feel the charisma radiating from him.
The weather had already turned a bit cool, but his gaze fell on her as if it had warmth, instantly making her feel warm and causing her heart to race a little faster.
She instinctively smiled, her eyes gently curving as she waved at him, “Husband”
Winford’s sharp facial features softened a bit.
He turned his head and ordered someone to move the desk closer to the window, so that with just a turn of his head, he could see the girl in the garden below.
Ophelia wandered for a while and suddenly thought of something-
She was forcibly brought back by Winford last night, and Lucy and Hannah would definitely be very worried.
She touched her body and realized she had forgotten to bring her phone. down, so she got up and prepared to go get her phone to return their call.
At that moment, she glanced upstairs and saw Winford sitting at his desk, with two subordinates standing beside him, seemingly reporting something.
As soon as she looked up, he noticed her gaze.
Ophelia glanced at him with a smile before running back into the house.
She went directly to the bedroom, but found the place where the phone
was supposed to be was empty.
Huh? Did she put it somewhere else?
She searched around the bedroom but didn’t find anything. She then rant directly to the study, pushed the door open, and poked her head inside.
“Honey, did you see my phone?”
The two subordinates who were saying something stopped and stood silently to the side.
Winford paused for a moment and then said, “With me.”
Ophelia was a bit surprised and casually said, “Honey, what are you doing with my phone?”
While saying this, she walked over to him and took the phone from his
hand.
Winford said, “I just took it conveniently.”
“Oh!”
Ophelia didn’t think much and took her phone, preparing to leave.
She took two steps and then remembered something, turned around and returned to his side, suppressing her shyness, and gave his handsome face a quick kiss with a “pata.”
“Then I left to call my classmates, otherwise they would worry about me.
Winford’s sharp brows softened instantly, both because of her shy kiss and because she took the initiative to explain what she was going to do.
He rubbed her head and said in a tone full of affection, “Hmm, go. ahead.”
Ophelia left the study and checked her phone. Sure enough, Lucy and the others had not only called her twice but also sent several WeChat
messages.
She checked the time and saw that it was exactly noon, which was not class time, so she directly made a phone call.
“Ophelia!!” Lucy was very excited and immediately asked, “Are you okay?”
“Nothing, what could I possibly have?” Ophelia said with a laugh.
“Really, are you okay? Did your husband not hit you? He looked so scary yesterday! It gave me the feeling that I might never see you again!”
Ophelia: “Was it really that exaggerated?”
“Where did I exaggerate? What I said was all true! If you don’t believe me, you can ask Hannah!”
Hannah’s faint voice came through: “It indeed was.”
