Chapter 20 Shouting Another Man’s Name in His Bed
Russell was not here for these three days, and the two of them. would keep in touch, but Zoey still felt like something was missing.
During the day, there was no time to be distracted while drawing sketches at Galaxy Studio, but as soon as night fell, this feeling became exceptionally apparent.
She knew that she missed Russell.
In the middle of the night, Zoey couldn’t sleep, so she went to Russell’s bedroom.
She lay on the man’s pillow, sniffing his cool woody scent, feeling particularly at ease.
Not long after, she fell asleep.
When the sky had just turned pale, the bedroom door was gently pushed open.
The man maneuvered the wheelchair to the bedside.
Through the narrow gap in the curtains, a faint light seeped in, and he saw a lump on the bed.
He knew that was Zoey.
Just now, when he passed by Zoey’s bedroom, he really wanted to go in and see her. In the end, he resisted the longing and

went back to lils own bedroom. Little did he know that there. was such a surprise waiting for him.
He took off his clothes, changed into pajamas, and slipped into the blanket, lying on his side and looking at the girl.
The dim light didn’t matter, because her appearance had already been deeply engraved in his heart.
“Russell…” Zoey muttered under her breath.
Russell’s magnetic voice lightly hummed, exceptionally seductive, “I’m here.”
Zoey suddenly burst into laughter and unconsciously nuzzled into the man’s arms.
Russell embraced a full, serene fragrance that wafted into his nostrils. They were clearly using the same shower gel, but hers smelled particularly good.
Of course, he preferred her without any makeup, with a faint pear fragrance, very refreshing.
Russell’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he restrained himself and quietly planted a kiss on her forehead.
“Nelson…”
Russell’s body instinctively tensed up, and his hand around Zoey’s waist tightened suddenly.
His lips curved into a straight line, waiting for her next words.
He had waited for a long time, but there wasn’t anymore words.

The light shining through the narrow crack grew brighter, and Russell looked at that fair little face, his expression extremely
solemn.
Lying on his bed, she was actually uttering the name of another
man.
Russell closed his eyes tightly.
Before, Troy had expressed his concerns, after all, Zoey was brought back by Nelson, how could she so quickly turn to his embrace?
He was once extremely confident, but now he is somewhat uncertain.
Russell felt restless in his mind and got out of bed.
Zoey slept until dawn and stretched lazily as she sat up.
She clearly felt that Russell had returned, but when she looked around, there was no sign of the man nearby.
It seems that she really missed him.
She got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom, and happened to run into Emilee.
Emilee nodded, “Good morning, Mrs. Maddox.”
Zoey smiled, “Good morning, Emilee.”
Emilee hesitated and stammered
Zoey asked, “What’s wrong, Emilee?”

Emilee sighed lightly and said, “Mrs. Maddox, ever since your arrived at Serene Manor, I have noticed that Mr. Russell started smiling more. I believe Mr. Russell really likes you, and he is also satisfied with marrying you. When young couples argue, it is important to communicate in a timely manner, otherwise it can hurt the relationship…”
“Wait, Emilee, I didn’t understand what you meant.”
Emilee was puzzled, “Mr. Russell came back and left again, didn’t you have an argument?”
Zoey was taken aback, “Did Russell come back?”
“Yeah. It was probably around three in the morning when I woke up, as I’m a light sleeper and the sound of a car woke me up. I came out and saw Mr. Russell had returned, and he seemed to be in a good mood. However, shortly after, Mr. Russell left again, with a terrifyingly grim face,” Emilee sighed softly. “I didn’t dare to ask too much either.”
Zoey furrowed her brows, did he not like her sleeping in his bedroom when he wasn’t around?
He felt that she violated his privacy?
Zoey pursed her lips, went back to the bedroom, and called Russell.
When the phone was about to hang up, the man answered it, his voice sounding slightly tired, “What’s up?”
Zoey pursed her lips and asked, “I heard from Emilee that you came back and then left again. What happened?”

Russell lay on the bed in the office rest area, raising his hand to cover his eyes, blocking the sunlight that seeped through the narrow gap in the curtains.
“The company had some urgent matters to attend to.”
Dealing with company matters at around three o’clock?.
It is obvious that Russell did not want to tell the truth.
Zoey sighed and felt a bit frustrated, “So, are you sleeping now?” Russell lightly hummed, “I was a little sleepy.”
Zoey noticed that the man’s tone was low, and she didn’t know if he was really tired or just brushing her off, not wanting to talk to her.
“Then shall I bring you some food later?”
“No need, I was going to the old house later.”
Rejected!
He must have disliked her invading his personal space when he was not around.
Definitely!
“Shall I cook dinner for you tonight?”
“There is a gathering tonight, you don’t have to wait for me, go to bed early.”
Zoey pouted and said, “Fine then, bye bye.”

“Um.”
Zoey grabbed her hair and let out a long sigh.
She muttered quietly, “So Russell is just like a lion, so territorial and possessive. What a stingy person! Going to the old house for a while and then socializing in the evening…”
Zoey blinked her eyes, “going to the old house?…”
She suddenly remembered that today was Saturday. She asked Roland to arrange for Russell to go to the old house to visit Marlene.
She quickly washed up, changed into a white T–shirt, jeans, and canvas shoes, and went downstairs with the silver needles in her backpack.
Emilee asked, “Mrs. Maddox, breakfast is ready.”
“You prepared it?” Zoey asked.
Emilee nodded.
“What about Joanna?”
Emilee said, “She went to the rose garden at the back and watered the flowers.”
Zoey observed and found that most of the time, Joanna cooked when Russell was at home. When Russell was not at home, it was mostly Emilee who cooked.
Zoey ate a little bit and then chose one of Russell’s most low- key Porsche to drive out of Serene Manor.

She parked the car in the parking space in front of Galaxy Studio’s entrance, and then left through the back door of the design studio. She then went to a narrow alley and changed her outfit.
After turning out of the narrow alley, she transformed herself into a woman wearing ancient clothing and a veil.
A circle of mesh was added to the brim of the hat, perfectly covering the face and neck, so that the Maddox family wouldn’t recognize her.
She got into a Porsche, and Roland, sitting in the driver’s seat, turned around and smiled, “Zoey, did I obediently choose the most low–key car?”
Zoey glanced at him disdainfully and said, “You don’t have a cheaper car?”
Roland chuckled, “No, we don’t have anything cheaper than this in our garage.”
Zoey’s mouth twitched. This kid is a bit dumb, isn’t he? Couldn’t he just buy a cheap one?
She didn’t bother with him anymore and said, “Driver, head to the Maddox residence.”
Roland: “…” So, he was just a ride–hailing driver?
Meanwhile, the stingy Russell sat in the back seat of the car, raising his hand to press against his forehead.
Troy glanced in the rearview mirror and asked, “Mr. Russell, did you have a headache?”

Russell nodded faintly, “There were three pills left. Can we reach Loner?”
“We cannot reach them at the moment, and we only have. enough supply for one month.”
Russell’s lips straightened into a line, “We must get in touch. within a month.”
Troy understood.
When Maybach arrived at the ornate gate of the old mansion, he saw Porsche parked at the entrance.
Because it was a private property, external vehicles were not allowed to enter, so Roland was contacting Troy.
Troy rolled down the car window and looked towards the Porsche beside him, “Look to the left.”
Roland lowered half of the car window and shouted, “I am Dr. Z’s assistant.”
Troy nodded, “Follow my car and go in together.”
Two cars were parked in front of the old house, one in front of the other.
Zoey saw Roland about to get out of the car and quickly said, “You wait in the car, don’t come in with me.”
Roland’s mouth twitched, “Why didn’t you take me on the visit?”
Zoey said, “You talk too much, and those who talk too much are bound to make mistakes. I don’t want Russell to recognize me.”

Roland: It was another day of being rejected!
After Zoey got out of the car, she saw Troy pushing Russell towards her.
The man sat in a wheelchair, his face gloomy. But the next second, upon seeing her, he brightened up as if nothing had happened.
Who made him angry?
