The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 745

"You're coming to see me tonight? Perfect!" His mood lifted visibly.

Having settled him down, I quickly ended the video call and stepped out of the bedroom. Caspian was on the couch, seemingly texting someone. "Let's go," I said.

"Alright." He immediately put his phone away.

I didn't know if it was just my imagination, but he seemed to pocket his phone rather quickly, as if flustered or anxious.

How strange. Why was he acting so tense?

"Selena, you look stunning," Caspian's gentle voice broke my train of thought.

I pulled myself together and offered a small smile. "Where's the concert? Do we have enough time?"

"Plenty of time. Don't worry about it." He stood up at once, and we walked out the door together.

When we stepped into the elevator, I unexpectedly ran into the older woman and the little boy from before.

As soon as the boy saw me, he cheerfully greeted, "Hi, Selena."

"Hi, Benny. Funny running into you again," I replied with a smile.

Benny was a highly sociable kid. This time, Mrs. Higgins wasn't carrying him; he was standing on his own two feet.

He glanced at Caspian standing beside me, then marched right up and waved for me to lean down.

Chuckling, I crouched down. Benny cupped his chubby little hands around my ear, whispering like it was a grand secret. "Selena, Grandma said something bad happened at your place yesterday. You better be careful."

So that was what the little guy wanted to tell me.

A warmth spread through my chest, and I thanked him earnestly. "Thanks for the heads-up, Benny. I'll remember that. I'll definitely be careful."
