Aurelia Shaw wasn't suspicious of Mason Nightshade, but the chance of something like sleepwalking happening was very small, and she had never had any deep understanding of it.
"Then what's up with my clothes?"
"You changed them yourself." Mason Nightshade's face remained unchanged, confident that if he confessed to helping her change, he could forget about getting close to her in the future.
Aurelia Shaw's brow furrowed deeply. The possibility of sleepwalking wasn't zero. She considered herself lucky not to have gone insane after experiencing such painful events.
"I get it. I'll be more careful in the future so as not to trouble you anymore," she said calmly, with a momentary pause in her voice. "However, to save you some trouble, you'd better still..."
"I don't have time!" Before Aurelia Shaw could finish, Mason Nightshade seemed to anticipate what she would say and interrupted her words. "Are you done talking? Do you want to see me change clothes here?"
Mason Nightshade raised an eyebrow and pretended to really reach for the towel. He had just showered, his hair was wet, and there were droplets of water on his body. It was obvious she had barged in unexpectedly, and it was easy to guess he wasn't wearing anything underneath.
"Not interested." Aurelia Shaw turned and walked away coldly.
She went back to her room, changed clothes, didn't put on any makeup, and went downstairs to leave.
Madam Rong saw her walking over. "Young Madam, breakfast is ready. You can start eating, and Young Master will be down shortly."
"I'm not eating. I have a casting audition this morning, and I'm running late. Is there any bread? Please bring me some. I'll eat on the go," Aurelia Shaw said.
Madam Rong looked at her thin body with concern and turned back to the kitchen.
At this moment, a deep voice came from upstairs.
"Eat breakfast before you go." Mason Nightshade came down from upstairs, wearing a white shirt and black trousers, indicating he also planned to head out for work today.
Aurelia Shaw didn't even glance at him and instructed Madam Rong, "Hurry up, Madam Rong, my car is waiting outside."
"Didn't you hear what I said? Eat before you go." In a few steps, Mason Nightshade was in front of Aurelia Shaw. She wasn't short, but she always felt overshadowed in his presence.
Only then did Aurelia Shaw raise her eyes to look at him. "Mason Nightshade, if you have so much time, why not sign the divorce agreement? I've left it on the dining table. Sign it while eating breakfast and give it to Madam Rong. I'll handle it when I get back."
Mason Nightshade's forehead veins bulged, "I said I won't divorce! Madam Rong!"
Madam Rong shivered in fright, thinking nervously: Last night, the two were fine going out together, so why are they arguing again? Did Young Master ask her to burn the divorce papers again?
Oh, just a few days ago, the old master called to check on Young Madam, asking about her situation and if Young Master was bullying her. If the old master knew about their current relationship, he'd likely fall ill from anger.
Madam Rong's mind was racing, only waiting for Mason Nightshade to give an angry command. However, after a while, she heard his suddenly softened voice, with a hint of frustration.
"Remember to add an egg to the bread, and... add a few more slices of bacon. Is there milk in the house, at room temperature? Give her a bottle!"
The tone was muffled at first, and towards the end, it was unclear if he was sulking or still angry.
Madam Rong was stunned for a moment, not reacting immediately. When she came back to her senses, she quickly agreed and ran into the kitchen.
It's good they're not fighting.
"..." Aurelia Shaw was speechless. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝙣𝙚𝙩
Is Mason Nightshade acting up again?
Isn't the sleepwalker supposed to be Mason Nightshade, not her?
