Chapter 46 

This was clearly Adrian’s property–how did it become his friend’s? And the market rate for this place was clearly so thousand dollars a month. 

“He was a lot of properties and doesn’t care about the price. He’s been looking for the right person. Instead of leasing it out to others for ditterent businesses, it seems only right for it to be used for saving lives,” Adrian explained casually 

Celeste nodded thoughtfully, her eyes narrowing slightly. “Your friend sounds pretty special. 

Adrian gave her a fleeting glance, saying nothing 

Joshua, standing nearby, scratched his nose, instinctively lowering his gaze. 

“If you like it, I can have him draft a contract and send it to your home,” Adrian ottered 

“Alright then, thank you, Mr. Wrenford,” Celeste smiled faintly, the comers of her lips curling upward. “I’m definitely taking this place.” 

Adrian’s lips curled into a half–smile, one that didn’t quite reach his eyes. 

Celeste still had to go check out schools for Eloise in the afternoon, so she parted ways with Adrian at the tea house. 

Adrian sat in the car, his gaze following her as she walked away, her figure slowly disappearing into the distance. 

“Mr. Wrenford, why hide it from Ms. Morin? This is your property after all,” came Joshua’s voice from the front. 

Adrian turned his eyes back to joshua, idly toying with the ring on his right hand. His voice was low, “Tomorrow, have a contract drawn up and deliver it to her place. Sign it under Elias” name. The property is technically in his name anyway, so it makes sense.” 

Joshua’s brow furrowed slightly. By now, he probably had an idea of what was going on 

He nodded quicidy, “Understood, Mr. Wrenford ” 

Just as his words finished, Adrian’s phone rang. 

Gray 

He glanced down at the screen–It was his best friend, Ellas O 

“About your teahouse. Someone offered to rent it for 12,000 dollars a month. I know 12,000 dollars is nothing for you, but the place is still empty. Are you really not considering tenting it out? After all, that place…” Ellas‘ voice trailed off. 

“It’s already rented out,” Adrian replied briefly. 

“Rented out? When? Just yesterday, I heard Joshua say the place was still available! Elias exclaimed, surprised. 

Adrian’s tone remained casual, “Just now 

Elias was incredulous. “How much did you rent it out for? Don’t tell me you got taken for a ride. That location should start at 10,000 dollars a month!” “5,000 dollars.” 

“What?” Elian sounded battled. “Adrian, are you out of your mind? Even though you don’t care much about the place, it’s still the first property we bought together! You can’t just let it go for a price like that!” 

“I’ll have Joshua deliver the contract tough.” 

Before Elias could respond, Adrian had already ended the call. 

Though their conversation hadn’t been on speaker, it wasn’t exactly soft. Since they were waiting at a red light, Joshua had heard everything clearly. 

He still couldn’t understand why Adrian had done that what was his real intent?
