Chapter 228: A Milf’s Concern
Not long after entering the mansion, we were split up, and I ended up alone in a small but elegant room with two leather couches, a cherrywood coffee table, and human-sized windows covering the entire eastern wall.
’A shame they are blocked with bars.’
I sat and leaned back with both hands on my lap, trying to calm myself down, after what happened with Gu Tianhao; my trust in other groups was zero.
"I wonder if the others are doing okay..."
The moment I finished speaking, the door handle clicked, and what seemed to be a servant opened the door, slick hair and a smart suit. It almost felt surreal in the current world, but that was just a testament to Jiang Roulan’s grandfather.
He looked at me with a slight frown before lowering his head as someone else entered.
The moment she entered, the air seemed to freeze.
An elegant woman stepped forward with a measured gait, each step perfect and without waste, as she stopped just inside the room. "Leave us." Her warm, alto voice entered my ears, soothing yet firm.
Then our eyes met.
An elegant shape, yet her brown eyes looked tired with slight crow’s feet at the corners... but that could barely detract from her beautiful allure.
Short, with long black hair tied into a slightly messy bun, maybe thirty or thirty-five at most from her looks, but in reality, she could be older.
