Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 352

Chapter 352: Get her

It has been quite a while since she had asked his help in looking into the Yu Family’s history in detail.

And knowing Adrian, no investigation would take so much time if he was the power behind it.

Ella began to speak but before she could utter a single word, his hand rose and gently cupped the back of her head.

He pressed a kiss against her forehead.

"Rest," he said calmly, "We’ll talk later."

Ella opened her mouth.

"...But—"

He had already stood up.

His touch trailed down her cheek, in a kind of touch that reassured her.

Ella closed her eyes for a second.

When she opened them, he was helping her lie back down gently, arranging the blanket atop her.

She watched him quietly.

Tall frame. Straight shoulders. Expression carved from ice but eyes that refused to leave her for even a second too long.

He walked to the door.

Ella’s gaze followed him.

He didn’t look back.

Not until the very last second, when his hand touched the doorknob. The man halted there for a moment and looked over his shoulder.

His eyes met hers again and then he stepped out, letting the door close behind him.

Silence filled the room again and the hospital room felt bigger without the man’s domineering presence.

Ella stared at the closed door, her lashes lowering ever so slightly.

The softness in her eyes vanished.

Her fingers curled slowly under the blanket and her eyes narrowed.

"Second Master!"

The moment Adrian stepped out of the hospital room, Ji Yan stepped forward.

A layer of sweat covered his forehead and his knees trembled.

There was a storm brewing behind Adrian’s calm eyes that made it unable for one to look straight at him.

Ji Yan inhaled a deep breath and stepped forward, "Second Master, some time ago, there had been an attempted abduction with Miss Yu..."

With shaky hands, he turned the tablet in his hand towards Adrian.

And there was a shaky video of a cab rushing past the packed alleys. If one looked closely, they could see the silhouette of Ella being seated inside the cab.

Adrian’s eyes darkened and suddenly the hall fell silent. There was an eeriness lingering in the air.

Ji Yan gulped before he continued, "To not offend Miss Yu, you had instructed our men to stay far back to protect her. That is the reason it took them a long time to reach the venue."

"By the time they reached, the situation was handled and the son of the Mo Family personally escorted Miss Yu back to the Eve Mansion."

The storm in Adrian’s eyes did not budge at all. His fingers pressed the edge of the iPad.

The corner of the screen splintered.
