Chapter 493: “Let’s Have a Date”
But now, in such a big house, being alone and unheard, it really feels incredibly lonely. Is it because there is now another person in life?
So is it because of not seeing each other that there’s this sense of loss?
With the remote control in hand, Emily Walker curled up on the sofa, her chin resting on her knees, lost in thought.
A glance at the tea table in front of her, and she noticed the cell phone.
At this time, was he busy with a social engagement or something else?
With a curious and uncertain heart, Emily picked up the phone. After much hesitation, she still dialed Baron Stuart’s number.
“Hello?” As soon as the phone was connected, the man’s unique deep and sexy voice was heard from the other side.
Emily smiled faintly, just about to speak when she heard another voice on the other end.
“Young Lord, can I stay with you tonight…”
The sudden woman’s voice caused the smile on Emily’s face to freeze abruptly, and she was momentarily taken aback.
In a private room, one woman who had just approached Baron Stuart was taken aback when she saw his cold pupils and intimidating tone. She immediately backed away.
“Hello?” Seeing that the person on the phone wasn’t speaking, Baron Stuart frowned and spoke again.
Emily came to her senses. Her mood was already a bit low, and now that a woman’s voice suddenly appeared on the other side, it was false to say she didn’t care.
After half a moment, she murmured, “Just now, she, she is… ”
“I don’t know her,” Baron Stuart said, and he really didn’t know the woman just now.
Don’t know her? How could someone he doesn’t know say they’ll stay with him tonight? Emily felt uneasy.
“Oh, what are you doing now?” Since he said he didn’t know her, she didn’t have to pursue the matter further, instead changing the topic.
Baron Stuart looked up at the tense atmosphere of the private room and then said, “Talking about business.”
Talking about business…
It seemed she already knew this answer, but she didn’t understand why she had to ask again.
“Oh.” She simply acknowledged with a soft sound, then lowered her head and didn’t speak again.
Baron Stuart seemed to have noticed the sense of loss in her tone and asked softly, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, just… I wanted to ask what you’re doing.” She made this phone call because she genuinely wanted to know what he was doing right now.
However, it was a bit unexpected that a woman’s voice appeared on the other side.
“So, what are you up to?” Bored by the social engagement that night, Baron Stuart just went with the flow and chatted with her.
“Me? I am watching TV.” Emily looked up and now shifted her gaze to the TV screen.
“What are you watching?” Baron Stuart asked casually, not really caring what she was watching.
But upon hearing the question, Emily hesitated and then took a closer look at the screen. It was a dating show.
“Let’s Date,” she read the title of the show in the bottom right corner of the screen.
But on hearing this, Baron Stuart furrowed his brow, paused, and said, “What?”
“Let’s Date,” Emily repeated, thinking perhaps he didn’t hear her clearly.
Baron Stuart was taken aback again, and there was silence for a while. After a few seconds, he slowly said, “Okay.”
For a moment, Emily was puzzled.
He said okay? Okay to what?
“I’ll be back later. You should rest earlier.”
Emily was about to ask something when Baron Stuart spoke first. She could only suppress the doubts in her heart, and replied, “Oh, okay.”
