Unwanted Girl Spoiled

Chapter 207 Chapter 207 Whats going on? The sudden power outage startled Damon, who immediately jumped to his feet in alarm On the other hand, Bennett was much calmer.

He opened the bedroom door and looked circuit breaker tripping the pitch black hallway, saying, Its probably just the The circuit breaker tripped? Damon frowned, finding it hard to believe.

Why would it trip for no reason! What are the maintenance guys even doing! Sitting around and getting paid for nothing! Alright, alright.

Bennett defended the maintenance team and said, People make mistakes sometimes.

Its already so late at night.

Why are you so anxious! Just have someone gocheck.

Damon furrowed his brows, finding something off about the outage.

Feeling uneasy, he turned to Bennett and said, Hennett, lets talk about the gifts tomorrow.

The power just went out all of a sudden, and I check on Leia .

She scares easily, I dont want her to freak out, Just as Damon reached the door, Bennett stopped him.

What are you doing, Bennett ? Damon halted his steps and asked in confusion.

He glanced back at Bennett, and in the dun glow of the phones cold white light, Benners handsand gentle features took on an eerie and almost chilling quality.

For a brief moment, it frightened Damon .

But almost instantly, he realized he must have been seeing things.

Because upon closer look, Bennett still looked just as calm and composed as ever With his lips slightly curved, Bennett teased, Damon, its late, and the powers out.

Why are you running to Leias room? Even real siblings set boundaries, let alone Leia, who isnt even related to us by blood. If you keep staying so close to her, people might start questioning you.

Hearing Bennett vinsinuation, Damon immediately grew agitated.

His face darkened as he said unhappily, Bennett, what are you trying to say! Blood related or not, Ive always seen Leia as my sister.

Weve been siblings for 18 years.

Do you think that would suddenly turn into something else? Why are you getting so worked up? Seeing Damon about to explode, Bennett quickly slung an arm around his shoulders and laughed.

Of course, I believe you.

But if word got out, would others believe it? Most people only see the surface.

When they think of wealthy families, they will associate them with all sorts of filthy scandals.

Even if youre just looking out for Leia, you still need to be careful.

The world doesnt run on what you think is fine .

Got it? Bennett added.

Damon was deep in thought, wondering if he should keep a distance from Leia But before he could think further , a terrified scream was suddenly heard from the hallway near the stairs.

Ahhh Danson recognized the voice immediately.

It was Leia .

Lela Without hesitation, Damon rushed toward the sound.

At the stime, the lights in the villa suddenly cback on When Damon arrived, he saw Leia and Noelle standing face to face in the hallway.

Lela lurched her chest, still trying to calm herself down.

She complained with annoyance, Noelle ! Were you trying to scareto death? Its so late night and youre walking without making a sound.

I nearly fell down the stairs when you bumped into met Noelle pouted Talways walk lightly.

But Leia, why were you coming up from downstairs? I was startled when she heard that She blinked at Noelle and corrected her, Noelle, I didnt cupstairs.

I was just about to go downstairs, but when I heard footsteps, I turned around.

Thats when you lamped into mor Hearing Hur, Noelle blinked as ell and said, Leia, you just c complained that I walk Ik willanie making footstep sound.

But now youre saying you brand may r about anything You .

Leja was at a loss for words, feeling unerly annoyed with Noelle who could argue with her a 1/2 Chapter 207 Gritting her teeth, Leu forced a smile and said, I didnt put it accurately.

I shouldve said that I sensed someone behind me, so I turned around.

Wow Noelles eyes widened in an exaggerated expression of admiration as she said.

I see.

Leia, youre really impressive.

Im really good at hiding my presence.

Most people dont even notice when I get close.

But you actually sensedLeis rolled her eyes inwardly and pondered, Is she mocking? Damn it.

Noelle is such a bitch! Every word she speaks is dripping with sarcasm.

Hiph. Lets see how long she can keep this up Leia was fed up with Noelle, but she still kept a smile on E) her face and playfully said. That just proves were so in sync.

No matter where you are, I can always sense you.

Oh.

I see Noelle and Leia looked at each other and exchanged smiles.

But in Noelles mind, she was thinking.

Leia sure is quick witted.

But in sync ! Please, the way shes looking at me, shes practically ready to eatalive! An does she think NQ Iman idiot? She clearly just cupstairs, yet she was lying about going down.

But why did the lie While Noelle waspondering Leias motives, Damon and Bennett arrived whats going on with you two two? Damon was the first to speak When Leia saw him, she softly called out, Damon. Then she smiled and said, Nothing, its just that the power went out, so I wanted to see what was going on.

As I was heading downstairs, I ran into Noelle at the stairs.

Leias words sounded harmless on the surface.

Those not paying close attention might misunderstand and think she bumped into Noelle while going downstairs • However, Rennett caught the subtle manipulation in her phrasing The corners of his lips curled up as he thought This woman What a waste of talent.

Shed thrive in a political chess game.
