Facade of Love (Yvette Scott and Idris Young)
Chapter 327

Chapter 327 Let's Freeze to Death Together

I pursed my lips and did not speak. My voice was cold and stern as I said, "If you need an answer right now, then let's freeze to death together here... Ah!"

I did not have time to react. Suddenly, Idris swept me up in his arms. The car was nearby, and he put me inside. Without saying a word, Ensio started the car and headed straight for Clearwater Residence. It was dead silent the entire journey.

Clearwater Residence.

It had been a while since I last came here, but everything looked just as it did before.

Idris and I were both drenched from the rain. While it was cold in the rain earlier, at least we got some warmth inside the car. Now, as we stepped out of the car and felt the cold air outside again, I could not help but shiver all over.

It was teeth-shatteringly cold.

Idris, being tall and slender, stood in front of me, blocking most of the cold wind. He looked at me and said, "There are clean sets of clothes inside the house. Go upstairs, take a shower, and I'll have Ensio make you some ginger tea to drink before you get a good night's sleep."

I pursed my lips. I had mixed emotions at the moment, and I did not want to say much to him. I merely said, "Ensio is unlucky to have met you."

He did not seem angered by that comment, only smiling faintly and then saying, "Hmm, I'll give him a raise."

What...?

Not saying much more to him, I went upstairs to the master bedroom. I had lived here for two years, and everything was the same as before, with hardly any changes. I was naturally familiar with many things. It was really cold. After finding some clothes, I entered the bathroom. The warm, soothing water washed away the cold from my body, and I finally started to feel alive again.

Indeed, the human body could not thrive in such mistreatment.

After getting cleaned up, I saw that the clock on the wall displayed that it was three o'clock in the morning.

At this hour, I felt guilty thinking about Idris asking Ensio to make me ginger tea. Hence, I went downstairs to ask Ensio to go rest.

Downstairs, I did not see Ensio around, but I did see Idris in a thick robe tinkering in the kitchen.

Perhaps he heard some noise as he turned around to look at me. He had already shed his disheveled appearance and regained his usual grace and elegance. He looked at me and said, "I made some ginger tea. Have some before you sleep."

I pursed my lips and asked, "Has Mr. Candor

gone back?"

"Yes," he replied and served me the ginger tea.

I could not help but feel a bit awkward, but ultimately, it was for my own good, and there was no reason to refuse. I reached out and took it, then drank everything in one gulp. Well... I was still too inexperienced.

The ginger tea was scalding hot, and as it reached my lips, my mouth went numb from the heat, I heard a voice in my ear saying, "Be careful, it's hot."

Nonetheless, before I could react, I had already spat out all the tea I had just sipped. Idris was right in front of me, completely unprepared, and I did not have time to care.

I had sprayed all of it all over him, even on his face.

“I'm... sorry!” I apologized as I grabbed some tissues.

I was not sure whether to wipe his face or the robe he had just put on, and for a moment, I was flustered.

The man quickly held my wrist, and I raised my gaze to meet his. He was good-looking and flawless in every way, no matter the time of day. However, he seemed a bit thinner lately, perhaps due to recent exhaustion, which only seemed to make him even more exquisite than before.

Instinctively, I tried to pull my hand away, but he held it tightly and looked at me with narrowed deep black eyes. "It's okay."

I could not stand his eyes. His gaze was so captivating that it felt like one could easily get lost in them. My heartbeat became somewhat erratic. As I avoided his gaze, I pursed my lips and said, "I'm sorry, it wasn't intentional. You should go wash up again."

I withdrew my hand, hastily finished the slightly cooled ginger tea, and then quickly returned to the bedroom.

At this hour, it would be impractical to go back to the Scotts Residence. In any case, Clearwater Residence had plenty of rooms, so I did not want to be too snobby. I decided to stay the night here.

Lying in bed, I felt a bit confused. This had started as a simple dinner invitation, but somehow, I ended up at Clearwater Residence with him.

This inexplicable turn of events left me wondering what it all meant.

I had already made up my mind to avoid him and live separate lives, but now...

The more I thought about it, the more frustrated I became. I drifted off to sleep in a haze.

I slept deeply, and when I woke up, it was already the afternoon. It had rained the previous night, making Lake City's winter even colder and damper.

There was no sunshine outside. It was foggy and gloomy. It was the kind of day that made you want to stay indoors. I sat on the edge of the bed, lost in thought for a while.

It was not until my stomach started growling that I got up to freshen up.

As I went downstairs, the living room was eerily quiet. There was no one around, and the house felt much colder than before, whether it was because Idris had dismissed the house staff or for some other

reason.

Originally, I had thought about going back to the Scotts Residence, but as soon as I left the living room, I received a call from Ensio.

Getting a call from him at this hour made me furrow my brow. I answered the phone, and on the other end was Ensio's voice, asking, "Mrs. Young, is Mr. Young still at home?"
