Dusk Snow Hides All Return (Rowan and Adrienne) novel Chapter 180

Chapter154.

It was an ordinary emoji, buon Xander… it was jarring!

What was he shy about??

Xander stood up.“To the company.”

He walked out. Zane and I followed.

In the elevator. I stood behind Xander, my eyes fixed on his back. I realized my perception of my new boss was too rigid, shallow, and limited. When he wasn’t being cold… he was hilarious.

And he didn’t care about other people’s feelings.

Zane was still obsessing over the emoji. In the elevator, he leaned close to Xander’s ear. “Mr. Shaw, did you send the wrong emoji? That one is called ‘shy‘.” Fearing he might not understand, he added, “Girlish shy.”

Xander’s expression was cold.“Is it? Oh, probably a slip of the finger.”

I widened my eyes:“…?!”

My wolf had been tortured by Xander’s sarcastic remarks, feeling utterly miserable, “NO, BRO! NO! YOU WERE WAITING FOR

ME! YOU… YOU… YOU… ARE CRAZY!”

Zane continued to persuade, “Should we change it?” To avoid scaring a friend of yours, it’s quite shocking.

Xander: “No.”

Zane wanted to say, “I can do it!” But seeing Mr. Shaw’s deep, dark gaze, he shut his mouth.

I was already mentally checked out. He really was sick. Really, really sick!

On the way to the company, Zane and I were silent as chickens. But Xander’s Moments was exploding.

Someone who never posts suddenly posting was already unbelievable enough. And to post something so unlike his personality – a sweet strawberry cake and a shy emoji who wouldn’t go crazy?

The comments section exploded, the messages exploded, and the phone calls exploded. Especially from his younger siblings.

‘Bro, if you’re kidnapped, reply with a 1.”

‘Bro, if you’re dating, reply with a 2.”

‘Bro, if you’re crazy, reply with a 3.”

At the Shaw Family home.

Thomas Shaw, Xander’s father, was already in the car, ready to go to the company, when Linda, Xander’s mother, pulled him out. “Something’s up with our son.”

Seeing his partner’s serious expression, Thomas felt a pang of anxiety.“… What’s going on? Is he really with the Lawson boy?

“Oh, my, can you be more perceptive?” Xander’s mother hit him playfully, smiling as she opened her phone. “Look, strawberry cake, only girls love that, and that emoji… I guess, it’s the girl who made him post it. But you know our son, if he’s willing to post, it means he likes her.”

“A girl is good!” For the past few days, Thomas dreamed his son was gay, and his ancestors would strangle him.

Tjust wonder who the girl is. Could it be… the one who called him last time?”

“It shouldn’t be, that’s Sophia’s friend.”

Thomas finished, and his heart skipped a beat.

Linda lived a pampered life, and didn’t like hearing gossip. He hadn’t told her about his son’s injury to avoid worrying her. She had heard about Sophia, and knew his new secretary was her. However, she was very open–minded, saying they were all outsiders and shouldn’t meddle in other people’s private affairs; ability was what mattered.

But if she knew that the person his son rushed to save was Sophia, and that the delay of Vanguard’s loan was partly due to his protecting Sophia… would she still be so open–minded?

Sophia was indeed capable and had just accomplished something significant, so showing her favor was understandable. Helping her in danger was also fine. From Liam’s description, their relationship seemed purely professional.

But his son’s Moments post… that table was clearly in his apartment. And there’s only one woman around his son lately… The youngest alpha in MoonCloud Pack’s history, and a bonding severed female… Thomas’s wolf was a bit troubled “THAT IS NOT A PERFECT MATCH…”

‘What are you thinking about?”

Linda pushed him, seeing his serious expression.

Thomas:“Nothing, I’m just thinking, maybe we’re overthinking things. Let’s not jump to conclusions.”

‘You just mentioned Sophia.”
