The man wore a black trench coat, standing outside the door.

His cold brows and eyes carried hints of fatigue.

At a height of 192 cm, he was almost as tall as the doorframe. He slightly lowered his gaze and looked at Viola Thompson, his thin lips opening slightly, “Let’s get in the car first, I’ll explain everything on the way.”

“Alright,” Viola nodded slightly.

“What about Mantou?” Terrence Lentz noticed the big fat lump on the couch, “Shall I call Adam to come over?”

“I’ll just have a friend come over,” Viola said indifferently.

The friend she was referring to was Rachel Barton.

“Alright.”

The two of them walked out of the residential area, one after the other.

A low-key Maybach was parked at the entrance.

As they approached, the driver immediately opened the car door.

Viola got into the car.

Terrence followed behind.

Once in the car, Terrence handed Viola a cup of milk tea.

“It’s a new milk tea brand that just came out recently. It’s said to be quite good.

Give it a try.”

“Thank you.”

Viola took the milk tea, took a sip, and narrowed her eyes in delight.

In the sweltering summer, taking a sip of iced milk tea made every cell in her body dance with joy.

Just by looking at her expression, it was clear that the milk tea tasted great.

Terrence then started speaking, “Your grandfather’s condition is very bad now. The hospital has already given him two critical condition notices. The prescription you gave needs to be taken with Soothing Pills, but now, there are no more Soothing Pills.”

As he finished explaining, Terrence elaborated on the circumstances surrounding the absence of the Soothing Pills.

Hearing this, Viola squinted her beautiful eyes, “Betty Cooper?”

“Yes,” Terrence continued, “Betty is the 128th generation heir of the

Dreamstone Clan.’

“You mean Oliver Cooper?”

Viola directly called out his name, causing Terrence to hesitate for a moment before finally realizing that Oliver Cooper was the former head of the Dreamstone Clan.

He was also Betty’s grandfather.

“Yes,” Terrence nodded slightly.

Viola stopped talking, lowered her head, and continued drinking her milk tea.

Soon, the car arrived at the airport.

They had purchased business class tickets.

Viola’s seat was by the window.

Terrence sat next to her.

There were a total of six seats.

The other four seats were all empty.

As soon as they sat down, a flight attendant came by to inquire,

“Miss Thompson, Mr. Lentz, good evening. Our main course for dinner tonight are M9 Wagyu Beef and Boston lobster, which do you prefer?”

M9 Wagyu Beef and Boston lobster?

Although they bought business class seats.

But the business class offerings usually didn’t include such high-end dishes.

When did the airline become so generous?

As Viola was puzzling this over, the flight attendant continued, “You two are quite lucky. Today is the 88th anniversary of our airline’s establishment. So tonight’s menu is a bit different from usual.”

So that’s it.

Viola raised her eyes slightly, “Then, I’ll have the steak.”

“Alright,” the flight attendant nodded.

Terrence ordered a lobster.

“Here’s the drink menu. Please have a look and see if you’d like anything,” the flight attendant handed Viola and Terrence the drink menu.

Viola took the menu, and to her surprise, the airplane also offered milk tea. Although she already had a cup in the car, she could never get tired of milk tea, “Bring me a taro milk tea.”

“Alright.”

Terrence ordered a taro milk tea as well.

The flight attendant glanced at Terrence.

Feeling a bit shocked in her heart.

What was going on?

Could it be that the milk tea tonight was added specifically for Miss Thompson by the gentleman?

It seemed rather unbelievable.

Three hours later, the airplane landed at Capital City Airport.

The cabin broadcasted the ground temperature.

River City was a hot city, with temperatures hovering around 28 or 29 degrees Celsius all year round. However, it was already early autumn in Capital City.

The ground temperature at night was only around 10 degrees Celsius.

Viola rushed out without changing her clothes.

She still wore the North Bridge High School uniform.

A white blouse paired with a pleated miniskirt.

It looked a bit thin like that.

As soon as she stepped out of the cabin, Viola felt the northern breeze.

The night wind was slightly chilly.

At that moment, a black trench coat was draped over her, still carrying body heat.

Viola looked up to see the man helping her put on the coat.

He leaned towards her, their faces were so close together that the smell of sandalwood with a hint of tobacco scent penetrated her nose.Viola could even see the length of his eyelashes clearly.

Long and curled.

It was a length that could make women envious and scream.

“Wear it properly,” Terrence helped her wrap up the coat tighter, “Don’t catch a cold.’

“Aren’t you cold?” Viola looked up.

Her clear peach blossom eyes carried a faint starlight.

It made people dare not look directly at her eyes,

Unpreparedly falling into her gaze, Terrence seemed to space out for a moment before lowering his eyes to look at his wristwatch, “What does a grown man have to fear from the cold?”
