Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 304

Chapter 304: They miss her

In the Eve Mansion.

Dark clouds enveloped the lavish mansion and biting cold seemed to seep into the bones of the people present there.

The servants all trembled in discreet corners as they watched the man who sat on the couch, his expressions unreadable.

On the coffee table, Adrian’s phone was placed with due respect.

And Adrian’s eyes had never once strayed far away from it.

"Second Master, why don’t you call me Miss Yu?" Ji Yan couldn’t stop himself at this point.

Adrian did not respond as if the voice of any mortal couldn’t get through him.

Ji Yan wiped his sweat. He really wanted to cry. He couldn’t even blame Ella for this entire situation considering that his second Master himself gave her the permission to visit her parents.

Yet, now, he seemed far from satisfied with Ella’s absence.

’Buzz’

Everyone held their breaths as Adrian picked up the phone.

And in the next moment, the ice around Adrian cracked a little.

From his angle, Ji Yan caught a glimpse of Ella’s text.

[Ella: Baby, are you done with your work yet?]

Then Ji Yan watched his Second Master clumsily typing in 0.1 seconds.

[Adrian: Yes.]

[Ella: Then have your dinner, and sleep early. No matter what, you must not work at night.]

[Adrian: Mm.]

After that, the conversation went dead. And a few icicles grew around Adrian again.

Ji Yan almost shed a few tears: I still work for you, Second Master, but isn’t this unreasonable? What can a lady say after you text her ’Mm’?!

But then, Ji Yan saw Adrian moving his fingers again as he typed something...

’When will you come ba...’

Adrian backspaced it without typing any further.

And he stared at the phone for a few long minutes. But after eternity, there was no further text from Ella.

’Woof’

’Meow~’

Riri and Lala, laying on the opposite couch, stretched their paws as they played lazily.

Suddenly, a huge shadow hovered over them. In the next moment, they felt themselves floating in the air.

’Woof?’

’Meow?’

Being picked up by their ’I might love you but I will rarely express it’ Daddy so abruptly, the two dumb kids blinked blankly.

Adrian looked at the both of them and turned towards the main door, "You miss her."

Riri and Lala: "_"

Ji Yan: "_"

Ji Yan wanted to bury a hole and die there... This... He was absolutely loyal to his second master but, but, but, could he not be so embarrassing in love?

...

Ella couldn’t sleep at all. It was more than an hour past midnight but she kept tossing and turning.

Although he said that, the moment Adrian stepped past the main door, Mr. Yu held his breath.

But with one closer look at the man, the Master and servants of the mention were all dumbfounded.

Adrian was dressed in a custom black suit, and he emanated the kind of aura that made people back off in his presence. However, what bewildered everyone was that...

This fearsome man was holding a small puppy in his hand. And on his shoulder, a tiny kitten was curled comfortably.

The sight was adorable but too difficult to digest. Nobody could take this picture in reference to ’The Adrian King’.

And if the Yu Couple had not seen Adrian before, they would doubt that the person in front of them was not the same man who was preceded by his ruthless reputation.

"Who is causing such disturbance at this hour? Do they have a death wish..." Esther’s disgruntled voice halted and her sleepy face immediately lit up when she saw the person standing downstairs, "Mr. King?" Her voice came out like an angel’s whisper.

However, Adrian did not look at her.

His gaze traced over the rooms inside the Yu Mansion.

Mr. Yu cleared his throat and stepped forward, "Mr. King, it’s your first time visiting our mansion. Since you are here at this hour, please stay over for the night."

Adrian paused and glanced at the man.

Mr. Yu held his breath, suddenly not knowing what to say.

"Alright."

The moment Adrian’s words dropped, Ji Yan entered the mansion with a few boxes in his hand. The small coffee table was immediately covered in the pile of boxes.

Mrs. Yu tugged at Mr. Yu’s hands, who in turn glanced at Adrian, "Mr. King, these are..."
