My Aloof Husband, Mr. Drexler, Dotes Me Excessively-Chapter 283: She Was Gone for a Full Three Hours!

After speaking, the butler hurriedly opened the door of the car’s back seat.

Summer Shawcross got out of the car, flashed a smile at the butler, and then turned to glance at Noah Drexler, who was also getting out.

The man kept a cold face, striding into the villa with his long legs.

Seeing that she wasn’t following, he finally stopped, frowning deeply as he looked at her.

Summer Shawcross shivered, hurriedly quickening her pace and trotting toward him.

Seeing her approach, the man turned around, unhappily saying, "Go back to your room!"

"..." Summer Shawcross sighed, resigned to following his footsteps.

...

Second floor.

Summer Shawcross followed Noah Drexler into the bedroom, gently closing the door behind her.

The man walked to the sofa and sat down, his handsome face still looking tense and cold.

Seeing this, Summer Shawcross sighed inwardly, then slowly walked over, obediently sitting down beside him.

She turned to look at him, suddenly reminded of what her brother Sean Shawcross had said to her earlier today, along with her deliberate evasion of the bodyguards, pausing in her expression.

After a while, she quietly began to speak, explaining to him.

"I just felt a bit stifled being followed by the bodyguards, so I went out for some air. I left my phone in the car, so I couldn’t call you in time..."

She decided not to reveal anything about her brother for now.

When her words fell, the man finally turned his head, his handsome face full of anger as he looked at her, his tone extremely serious!

"Summer Shawcross, you disappeared for three hours!"

She had disappeared for three whole hours!

The serious and earnest look on his face now made her heart tighten.

After a while, she continued softly.

"I’ve come back, haven’t I? It’s just three hours, nothing big happened..."

She had only been out of the bodyguards’ sight for three hours, but she hadn’t expected his reaction to be so intense.

When her words were finished, the man looked at her with an unyielding expression, then reminded her solemnly.

"It only takes a minute to take your life!"

She grew up in a carefree environment, unaware of how many terrifying things exist in this world.

But he was different... He had grown up in darkness, accustomed to seeing all sorts of frightening situations.

Just the assassinations he had encountered over the years from various enemies and competitors numbered in the dozens, big and small.

As his words fell, Summer Shawcross’s face showed a shocked expression.

A minute is all it takes...

If this sentence came from someone else’s mouth, she might think it was nonsense.

But when Noah Drexler said it, she felt only shock.

She had never witnessed the instances where a second could take someone’s life...

But she knew, he had probably seen it...

Precisely because he had seen it, that’s why he was so mobilized, so tense and angry today.

Thinking of this, her face paled a bit, and her heart suddenly ached.

Looking at the man’s tense expression, Summer Shawcross felt a pang of guilt inside.

"Noah Drexler... I’m sorry..." she whispered, bowing her head.

Her forehead gently leaned against the man’s suit, her voice full of apology.

The man’s body stiffened, he slowly lowered his head, looking at the small woman leaning against his embrace.

"I promise, I won’t disappear again without reason in the future." Her soft voice sounded once more.
