Chapter 1444: Chapter 1444: Viscount Zhou: I’m Starving to Death at the Airport

Mason Nightshade’s lips curled up, "It’s a secret."

At night, Mason Nightshade climbed over the wall and snuck into the Parker Family estate.

No one in the Parker Family discovered him.

Mason Nightshade flipped into Aurelia Shaw’s room, moonlight streaming in through the window. Aurelia’s serene smiling face embraced a doll in her arms, her fine eyebrows slightly furrowed, suggesting unease.

Mason Nightshade extracted the doll, tossed it aside, and pulled her into his embrace.

She always felt uneasy in unfamiliar places.

Being alone in the Parker Family household, an environment full of uncertain elements, where there could be adversaries against her, he guessed she wouldn’t sleep well at night.

Aurelia sensed something, only feeling a familiar and beloved aura envelop her. She reached out, wrapped her arms around Mason Nightshade’s waist, finding a comfortable position, "Mason?"

Mason Nightshade watched the little woman’s head burrow into his embrace like a cat, and couldn’t help but smile, "Yes, it’s me, sleep. I’m here."

"Okay."

The next morning, Mason Nightshade was gone.

Aurelia looked at the sunken spot on the bed, confirming last night wasn’t a dream, Mason Nightshade had indeed visited.

He must have been worried she wouldn’t sleep well.

Aurelia couldn’t help but remember, was this the reward Mason Nightshade mentioned? She really liked this reward.

In the evening, Aurelia received a new invitation.

It came from the second house.

Seraphina Parker had come of age, and the second house invited her to the ceremony.

Aurelia’s fingers lightly tapped the table, deep in thought.

The second house surely had ulterior motives.

What were they planning?

In other words, what did they intend to do to her during this coming-of-age ceremony?

Since there was still time before the ceremony, Aurelia decided not to think about it anymore.

Just then, her phone rang. Aurelia picked it up and glanced at it, startled—it was Viscount Zhou.

"Aurelia, hurry and come greet your young master!"

Aurelia was surprised, "You’ve come to M Nation?"

"You’ve stood me up so many times, for so long, and you haven’t responded to my WeChat messages. I had no choice but to come find you. I’m at the airport now, come pick me up."

"I’m sorry, I haven’t been on WeChat lately..." Actually, Mason Nightshade deactivated her WeChat temporarily to keep Alaric Wood from finding her, "Go to the hotel first, I’ll come find you there."

"No way! Come pick me up at the airport, I’m waiting here for you. Aurelia, I don’t know anyone here, I’ve got no money, and an M Nation woman keeps trying to chat me up. If you don’t come, I’ll be sleeping rough at the airport." Viscount Zhou feigned pitifulness.

Aurelia rubbed her temples and smiled helplessly, "Got it, I’ll come pick you up right now, just wait a moment."

Aurelia hung up the phone and instructed a servant to arrange a car.

In the airport, Viscount Zhou sat in a waiting chair, earbuds in, eyes closed.

When women passing by tried to approach, Viscount Zhou shot them a cold look, frightening them away.

Upon seeing the woman walking towards him, the hostility in Viscount Zhou’s eyes vanished instantly, revealing a dangerous little grin with a hint of a fang, hands in his pockets, striding forward, unable to hide his joy.

"Too slow! I’ve been waiting here forever," Viscount Zhou muttered, trying to hide the joy in his heart, stealing a glance to carefully look Aurelia over from top to bottom, and teased, "I’ve almost starved to death at the airport, and you actually took the time to put on makeup before picking me up."

"Nonsense! I’m somewhat of a celebrity in M Nation, it’s only right to pay attention to my image when going out. I’ve arranged for a hotel for you. Do you want to grab a meal first or head to the hotel?"

"Let’s get take-out at the hotel!" Viscount Zhou quickly answered.
