It was already past 9:00 p.m. when Sadie woke up. She sat up in a startle and looked around to find that she was in her own house.‘What‘s going on? Wasn‘t I at the Shengville Hotel? How did I get back?‘ Beatrice noticed that Sadie was awake, so she approached and asked in worry, “Sade, how are you feeling?”“Mom…” Sadie calmed herself down and shook her head. “I‘m fine… Why am I home?” “Your bodyguards sent you back. It‘s too dangerous. You nearly let him have his way. If it weren‘t for the bodyguards… I can‘t even imagine the consequences.” Beatrice could still feel the fear when she recalled how the four bodyguards had sent an unconscious Sadie home.Sadie breathed in relief. “All thanks to them! If they weren‘t there, I‘m afraid. She was terrified. ‘That j*rk Archer!’“Don‘t worry. Your father rewarded all four of them. Remember to thank them when you go to the office tomorrow.” “I will.” Sadie nodded. She did not expect the four bodyguards to be so good. The high price she had paid to hire them specifically was worth it! She had thought that they were doomed when she saw the four men being tied up before she passed out. “Mom, I‘m a little hungry…” “I‘ll make you something.” Beatrice hurried downstairs, and Sadie followed behind soon after.At that time, Kayson returned home.With a slight frown, Sadie wanted to come up with an excuse just to scold Kayson, but she was embarrassed when she recalled that Kayson had warned her when they finished work. She could only harrumph and say, “Don‘t be late for work tomorrow, or your salary will be deducted.”Kayson nodded.Beatrice came out of the kitchen at the same time and asked him gently, “You‘re back, Kayson. Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?”“No, thanks, Mrs. Wolfenden.” “Mrs. Wolfenden? We‘ve got to change that!” Sadie was appalled and quickly interrupted the conversation. “Mom, where did you put the fresh beef? I want to add some!” “It‘s in the fridge…” Kayson chuckled and asked, “Where‘s Grandpa Hugh?”“He and Liam went out saying there‘s an emergency in the company,” answered Beatrice. “Oh… I‘ll take a shower and get ready to turn in for the night then.” Sadie froze. Naturally, she knew that Kayson was saying it specifically for her knowledge. Kayson went upstairs since Sadie did not say anything.The next day, Kayson found that the atmosphere in the car was a little tense. “Dad… I‘m sorry.” Sadie seemed glum in the passenger seat. Liam sighed. “It‘s not your fault. We didn‘t expect
Archer to be so bold and despicable…” Kayson frowned and could not help asking, “Did something happen to the company?” Liam ignored him while Sadie replied impatiently, “Asking the obvious! It‘s got nothing to do with you. Stop asking so much!” Kayson wore a frown of confusion.‘Does Faris think I‘m a fool? Did he not settle the matter with Archer? If that‘s the case…‘ An icy glint flashed across Kayson‘s eyes.At The Tetrad…“Kayson!” Easton greeted him with a smile. He was already back to work. Kayson nodded at him. “Much better now?”
