The night had completely fallen; the streetlights outside the villa cast a faint halo, ultimately unable to resist the overwhelming darkness.
Inside the villa, however, the lights shone bright as day, adorning the entire space with a kind of radiant, flowing brilliance.
Upon entering the house, a servant came forward to take the coat jacket draped over the master's arm.
Usually, upon hearing his return, a girl would run down the stairs from afar and throw herself softly and tenderly into his arms, but today she was nowhere to be seen.
Gong Yeyan knit his brows slightly and casually asked a servant, "Where is she?"
In the Night Palace, everyone knew who "she" referred to.
Chen Bo, who appeared out of nowhere, dismissed the servant who had taken the coat and answered his young master's question, "Miss Ming Ge is in the study."
"The study?"
The study housed important documents of the Gong Group, and Gong Yeyan had never kept her away from it.
