CEO's Dumb Bride novel Chapter 77

Chapter 77 Going Home

As they were speaking, Francis and Nelson appeared in Lilian's line of sight.

Francis was neatly dressed in a suit. His knee-length brown coat set off his long legs.

He looked down at Lilian and then glanced at Courtney.

Lilian felt guilty and lowered her head.

Her ponytail had already come undone, and strands of messy hair fell on her pale cheeks like the mottled scratches on white jade.

Courtney furrowed her brows but said nothing. Given the previous experience, she didn't have to confront him since the latter didn't provoke her.

Just as the atmosphere became tense, Lester arrived.

When he saw Francis and Lilian, his expression changed slightly. He strode over to Courtney and whispered, "Have you had enough? Come home with me."

Courtney didn't want to argue, nor did she have the strength to.

Lester grabbed her and led her to leave. As they passed Lilian, Courtney looked back at her with concern.

After the two were gone, Francis finally broke his silence. "Are you planning to spend the night here?"

Lilian was taken aback and looked up at the man. His face was devoid of emotions.

She hesitated for a moment and nervously stood up.

Francis turned and left. The wind lifted by his coat, mixed with an unfamiliar fragrance, wafted faintly around Lilian's nose.

She quietly followed behind him while Nelson stood in front of the car door. As soon as he opened the door, Francis said, "You go back first."

Nelson nodded, closed the car door, and stepped aside for the two people.

Lilian got in the car. Neither of them talked, and the temperature inside the car was low.

She fidgeted with her fingers and was anxious throughout the ride.

When they arrived at Azure Shores, Francis took off his coat. Fabiana hobbled out of the kitchen, her eyes sparkling with joy and caution.
