My Aloof Husband, Mr. Drexler, Dotes Me Excessively-Chapter 303: Ignoring Him
Looking at her at this moment, an inexplicable ache arose in his heart...
He pressed his lips together, speaking softly to her with a serious expression.
"I’ll be back as soon as I can."
If the situation in Rovena hadn’t been so unstable, posing potential danger, he would have brought her along.
But as soon as he said this, Summer Shawcross’s expression turned even paler.
Couldn’t he just not go?
Seeing this, Noah Drexler’s eyes flickered, and he spoke softly to her once more.
"I’ll have Sean Morgan stay with you."
With Sean accompanying her, he felt less worried.
Summer Shawcross felt a surge of frustration, so she simply turned her head to look out the window, ignoring him.
...
Before long, the car arrived back at The Hillside Villa.
Summer Shawcross got out of the car and walked straight inside.
Noah Drexler followed closely behind.
Seeing Noah Drexler and Sean Morgan return, the butler showed a puzzled expression.
"Sir...I thought you’d already boarded the plane?"
Noah Drexler didn’t stop but followed the fuming Summer Shawcross upstairs.
Sean Morgan paused beside the butler, glanced at the two going upstairs, and then sighed.
"Something came up; it’s postponed to tomorrow."
"No wonder, I’ll have the kitchen prepare a few more of your favorite dishes then." The butler nodded and went off to arrange dinner.
...
In the bedroom, Summer Shawcross picked out a dress from the walk-in closet and headed into the bathroom to change.
By the time she came out, Noah Drexler had also returned to the bedroom, leaning back on the sofa watching her.
...
-- Knock, knock.
...
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Noah Drexler’s gaze remained on Summer Shawcross, unyielding.
The door opened, and a housemaid entered carrying a trash bin, smiling politely as she approached Summer Shawcross.
"Madam, I’m here to collect your clothes."
"It’s in the bathroom..." Summer paused, then pointed towards the bathroom.
The maid nodded and walked towards the bathroom with the trash bin.
Seeing this, Summer Shawcross suddenly remembered something and quickly said to the maid.
"No need to wash it, I want that dress thrown away."
The dress had a lot of bloodstains on it, and she didn’t want to wear it even if it was cleaned.
The maid paused, then said, "Madam, sir instructed to have this dress burned."
Burned?
Upon hearing this, Summer Shawcross was momentarily stunned, then turned to look at Noah Drexler, pursing her lips with disdain.
"Polluting the environment!"
Facing her criticism, there was not a hint of displeasure on Noah Drexler’s handsome face; instead, there was a touch of amusement.
The maid took the dress and left the bedroom.
After the door closed, the bedroom returned to silence.
Noah Drexler’s gaze remained on her, watching her for a moment before suddenly pressing his lips together and speaking to her.
"Come here!"
Summer Shawcross glanced at him before slowly stepping towards the sofa.
As soon as she reached his side, he unexpectedly reached out his hand, grasping her wrist.
In one natural and practiced movement, he pulled her over and had her sit securely on his lap, holding her close.
Thinking about his insistence on going to Rovena, Summer Shawcross felt a little displeased, and instinctively moved, trying to struggle out of his embrace.
