Cayden was exuding an icy cold aura that made others keep a distance from him.

Feeling helpless, Avery adjusted her clothes and looked out the window, not daring to speak.

Xavier closed the car door after Avery got into the car. He then went to the house and fetched Zachary and Rory, who were obediently doing their homework.

The black Bentley's backseat was luxurious and spacious. Xavier carried Zachary and Rory into the car one after another. However, Cayden didn't carry them, and his eyes were full of frustration and disdain when he looked at them.

Fortunately, the kids had already gotten used to it over the years.

When she saw Avery, Rory went over and asked obediently, “Ms. Ery, can I sit with you?”

“Of course. Come over here,” Avery said in a soft voice.

After she finished speaking, Avery took Rory's hand and gently pulled the little girl into her embrace.

The scene was so heartwarming. They would have seemed like a family of four on a weekend trip to the countryside if it weren't for Cayden acting cold and distant.

Zachary wanted to snuggle with Avery too, but he shrank his neck into his collar in fright when he saw his father's expressionless face.

Instantly, Zachary knew that his father was in a bad mood again.

Sitting on the soft leather seat opposite Cayden, Zachary fastened his seatbelt with his head down. Then, he looked up at his father without saying a word.

In Ackleton, Dylan had washed himself up and changed his clothes. He then drove away from the bar.

He even brought Milana along because she kept saying that she was Avery's sister.

In Dylan's eyes, Milana was just a lowly tramp with no background. However, after realizing that her last name was also Rumpley and that she was Avery's sister, Dylan's opinion of her changed completely.

Although he had only slept with Avery's stepsister and not Avery, Dylan still felt an indescribable pleasure.

He even had a perverted thought. If only Milana is Avery's biological sister. I would've at least won in a way. It's a pity that she isn't.

Milana kept observing Dylan's expression while sitting in the passenger seat.

The car was moving at an extremely fast speed. Dylan's face was dark and grim, which mirrored his vicious-looking eyes. His lips were shut tight, and faint smoke was coming out of his nostrils.

Soon, Dylan parked his car in front of a private restaurant.

Nicole was wearing ordinary clothes. She was in a hoodie with her hair tied up and a pair of huge glasses on her nose, looking like a student.

The restaurant was owned by someone Nicole knew, so there was no need for her to worry about the paparazzi finding her. Even though that was the case, Nicole was always very cautious when she was out in public on her own.

After all, there were paparazzi everywhere, and Nicole had been photographed last night, even though she tried her best to be cautious.

When Dylan entered the room on the second floor, Nicole looked over and asked, “Who is the person behind you?”

Milana was stunned. It was her first time being face-to-face with a celebrity. Nicole didn't look as surreal as she was on TV, nor was she unapproachable. The photos on the internet were indeed edited.

Nevertheless, Nicole still looked great. She had exquisite facial features and a very distinctive appearance, unlike most celebrities.

As a woman, Milana envied Nicole. We're both women, but why is Nicole's life so much better than mine?

“She's just a friend,” Dylan introduced Milana indifferently and sat down. Then, he stared straight at Nicole with menacing eyes.

Nicole knew what Dylan wanted to ask, so she quickly said, “My mom said that my dad is in a meeting in Beshya. It's a closed meeting, so I'm afraid he doesn't know about us being photographed.”

After confirming that Nicole's parents and the agency were not responsible for what had happened, Dylan took out a cigarette and lit it while frowning and pondering over the matter. When Cayden came to his mind, Dylan sneered with the cigarette in his mouth. “He really cares more than me.”

“Huh? Who cares more than you?” asked Nicole.

“It's nothing.” Dylan threw the lighter in his hand on the table and continued, disregarding Milana's presence, “Didn't you want to meet my wife? We'll set out after a meal.”

Nicole was surprised. That soon?

Milana was listening carefully to the conversation between the two while looking around. Suddenly, the two girls' eyes met, which prompted Milana to smile awkwardly at Nicole.

Nicole gave Milana's childish appearance a once-over. Even though she didn't know who Milana was, Nicole still greeted her politely, “Hello.”

Delighted, Milana immediately introduced herself, “N-Nice to meet you. I'm Milana Rumpley!”

Dylan felt that Milana was embarrassing him and ignored her. He closed his eyes and said while taking a puff, “She wants to enter the entertainment industry. You should guide her if you can. She said that she's even willing to play a corpse or a passerby.”
