Chapter 890: Chapter 890: Anxious Like a Fire Burning
At this point, Bella Stuart couldn’t help but start to worry.
Baron Stuart had always been rational and steady in handling things; he knew they would worry and wouldn’t stay out for such a long ti without good reason.
The New Year’s fireworks had ended, and at this ti, where could he be?
At this mont, she didn’t feel it appropriate to wake Grandpa. For the ti being, Bella Stuart felt unsure of what to do.
“I… I’ll go out and look for him!” Emily Walker, frantic and at a loss, turned to rush out the grand entrance.
As soon as Leonardo Bryson and Bella Stuart saw what she was doing, they hurriedly grabbed her, “Sister-in-law, don’t panic, it’s so late, where will you go looking for him?”
“Then what do we do!? He never just disappears… he must be in so trouble; otherwise, he wouldn’t be out for such a long ti!” Perhaps because her heart was too anxious, and she didn’t know what to do, her eyes quickly filled with tears, and she couldn’t help but sob out loud.
Her anxious deanor left Bella Stuart sowhat stunned; she knew she was worried, but it was the middle of the night, and she dared not lose her sister-in-law!
“Sister-in-law, I know you’re anxious, but would it be okay for you to wait at ho for our good news, while Leonardo Bryson and I go look for him?” she soothed.
“You all stay at ho; I’ll go look!” Watching the two in distress, Leonardo Bryson finally spoke up.
However, just as he was about to turn around, Baron Stuart walked in through the grand entrance gate.
Seeing the three people in front of him, he was montarily taken aback and furrowed his brow slightly, puzzled.
“Baron Stuart…”
Not until he heard Emily Walker’s voice did he turn his line of sight, and when he saw the moisture in her eyes, Baron Stuart felt a slight jolt in his heart.
“What happened?” he approached and asked softly.
Seeing the man return unhard before her, the tears Emily Walker had been holding back finally burst forth, sliding down her face.
She threw herself into his arms, crying sowhat hysterically, “Where have you been, why did you co back so late… ”
Surprised by the person who suddenly flung herself at him, Baron Stuart was taken aback once more, but then he raised his hand to hold her close, “I, I had sothing and had to leave for a bit.”
So he had been away for quite a while, which is why she was so worried she cried?
Seeing him safe and sound, Bella Stuart couldn’t help but pout in dissatisfaction, “Brother, can’t you let us know next ti you have sothing to attend to? You had us so worried!”
However, Leonardo Bryson noticed sothing off with him; his body had the sll of gunpowder.
“What’s going on? Why are you all standing here?” Hearing the noise, Vivian Ferguson descended from the second floor, wrapped in a coat, and upon seeing everyone gathered in the living room, she couldn’t help but ask.
Leonardo Bryson smiled and responded to Vivian Ferguson, “It’s nothing, we just got back.”
Emily Walker also wiped her tears, feeling finally relaxed at this mont.
“You all should stop staying up all night too, go back to your rooms and rest. Leonardo Bryson, it’s so late, you might as well not go back and spend the night here,” said Vivian Ferguson, seeing that they were okay, she then turned and went back to her room to rest.
.
Once back in their room, given the ti was so late, Baron Stuart naturally didn’t miss the opportunity to carry her toward the bathroom.
While taking a bath, Emily Walker was surprised to notice a clear mark on his back, as if he’d been struck by sothing hard.
“You, what happened here?” she asked, looking at him with so confusion.
Only then did Baron Stuart beco vaguely aware of the pain in his back, but he casually found an excuse, “Oh, Grandpa did it.”
Emily Walker was taken aback, “Grandpa did it? Why would he hit you again?”
