Chapter 144 The Meaning of Names

Watching her put on his coat again and straighten the front, Huangfu Jue finally stepped out of the bedroom and saw Will, to whom he whispered an order.

"Prepare the car."

Will busied himself with taking out his phone to make a call, but noticing the piercing look from Huangfu Jue, he realized the problem and hurriedly ducked into the study before speaking in a hushed tone.

"Get the car ready, the gentleman will be down soon..." He paused, then added, "Don't talk if it's not necessary!"

...

...

All the way, Huangfu Jue didn't say a word.

The atmosphere in the car was oppressively tense, so much that not only the driver but also Will dared not breathe too loudly.

Knowing he was angry, Gan Yuan also remained silent, wrapping herself in his coat and huddling in a corner of the seat. She turned her face to watch the street lights flashing by the window, her dark eyes filled with a bittersweet sense of helplessness.
