Chapter 479: Don’t Let It Get into Your Head
Miles away from the Xu family’s ancestral home, Daniel Yan made his way into a luxurious apartment rented by his longtime friend, Nicholas Wu.
Being even closer than blood brothers, Nicholas trusted everything in Daniel and vice versa. They knew the passcode for each other’s residence, including the sinister plan they crafted discreetly.
Or so they thought.
’Is he still sleeping? I haven’t gotten any replies to my texts ah.’
Daniel had just returned from golfing with a few new friends he made in the city. Instead of going back to his apartment, he headed directly to Nicholas’ abode.
Daniel hadn’t heard from Nicholas since last night. He only knew that his friend had another date with Belinda, the Qin family’s treasured young lady.
"Hello, aren’t you home?"
Daniel’s footsteps were perfectly audible on the polished marble floor. He headed to the living room where the dazzling summer sunlight filtered through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
A smirk was drawn on Daniel’s lips once his eyes fell on his friend’s figure, lying on the three-seater couch. Nicholas’ eyes were closed, his face marred with lines of exhaustion.
"Did you have another tired yet passionate night with that Belinda lass? Are you trying to knock her up?"
Daniel’s voice was imbued with mockery as he mentioned the young lady’s name. He knew Nicholas had been spending time, mostly nights with the young heiress.
