Domineering Lover novel Chapter 1279

The gentle breeze of spring brushed past by like the caress of a maid as the galaxy twinkled brightly above.

When Adrian brought Aleigha back, the banquet was about to reach its climax.

Everyone had a very good time, so when Adrian and Aleigha appeared, there weren't many people paying attention to them.

Caroline and her mother were also in the crowd, still dressed in old clothes, sitting at the table and eating.

Caroline had her eyes drooped down, not saying a word while her mother kept nagging at her about something.

They ate a lot of food, and their mouths never stopped moving.

Aleigha became more and more curious about them, and her eyes almost never left them.

It was not until Caroline looked over that she smiled and nodded to them as a greeting.

When Caroline saw them, she put down her fork and got up to walk over.

Adrian's eyes were dark and cold, and his brows were tightly knitted together. He appeared to be very displeased.

Caroline walked straight over, causing the coldness in Adrian's eyes to grow even more fierce.

Before Caroline could approach, he had already said, "Did you forget about my last warning, or is it just that it doesn't matter to you now?"

"You think you are now sucking off blood from Darien and you can just come up to me like this?"

Adrian was an iceberg that everyone feared. Everyone in the Xiao family knew how could and ferocious he could be.

But because of Aleigha, he had strived so hard to restrain himself. Yet now he was infuriated again because of Caroline and her mother.

Aleigha felt that something wasn't right with Adrian. The cold aura emanating from his body was filled with a thick sense of hostility.

The look he gave Caroline was so penetrating that it almost stung.

Caroline was so scared that she stopped in her walk. She was at a loss of what to do and her body was trembling slightly.

"Adrian, you..." When Caroline's mother saw the killing intent in Adrian's eyes, she swallowed the words that almost came out of her mouth. She didn't dare to offend him.

That warning was kept in her heart, and for nights, she would scream shrilly as she awoke from the nightmares.

"What's going on here?" The smiling tiger, Darien, appeared with a perfunctory fake smile that he was used to wearing.

He came over like a peacemaker and patted Caroline's shoulder as if he didn't know anything.

"Adrian, Caroline only wants to get close to you. You two used to be very close when you were young."

Darien held his wine cup. His face was a little flushed. It was likely that he had drank quite a lot.

"Adrian, I just, just want to apologize to you," Caroline said hurriedly when she saw someone trying to smooth things over.

Her apologetic attitude was written all over her face instead of the malice that used to be almost her tag.

"There's no need, the way I see it." Adrian was already giving them a lot of respect by still being there.

Caroline looked awkward as she looked at Adrian. In the end, she began to whimper.

"Whoa, what's with the tears? Your cousin has always been like this. Don't cry, you can tell me if there's anything you feel like venting out."

Aleigha got up and took the initiative to walk to Caroline's side. Adrian stretched out his hand to pull her.

However, she brushed it away lightly and looked back at him, blinking her eyes.

Only then did Adrian retract his hand.

"Thank you, Aleigha." Caroline suddenly broke into laughter and leaned into Aleigha's arms.

She looked so pitiful and adorable that even her mother was quite taken aback.

Aleigha pulled Caroline to the outside of the banquet hall. As soon as she went out, she moved away in disgust.

"Cut your hypocritical act. Who knows what's going on inside that little head of yours?"
