Chapter 523
Zoe couldn’t resist admiring the view longer.
All of a sudden, Mason leaned over and stared at her quietly. His eyes were so deep that she couldn’t fathom what was on his mind.
She couldn’t help but feel that something stirred her heart.
Then, he chuckled lightly, as if he saw through her thoughts. At the same time, Westley would much rather he didn’t see this private moment at all!
The air was sizzling with romance.
Then, they heard a car pulling into the yard. A moment later, Layla led Lisa into the manor. Lisa looked very pissed. She had probably come because of the trouble with Dewetta
However, she was quite surprised that Zoe was here.
She was so stunned by her presence that she couldn’t speak for a good while. “You’re here too, Zoe!”

grabbed her lean arm when she got into the car and said tenderly,” nni has some extra curriculum activities at the kindergarten this aturday. We’re both required to attend it. Mark it on your calendar!”
Zoe was stunned. “When did they decide on this? I can’t believe I’m
not aware of it.”

Snorting, he chided, “You were too busy going on the blind date. Of course, you wouldn’t care about what happens to our kids.”
She couldn’t hold herself back and said, “Mason!”
Pinching her lean arms, he rubbed it gently and said longingly, “I would never have let you go if it wasn’t because I have to tend to my dad’s case!” He looked at her intensely. The lust in his eyes was unmistakable.
On the other hand, Zoe had her pride to uphold. Shaking him off gently, she said softly, “Give me a call as soon as you have an update. Watch yourself, Mason!”
She was so affectionate that he couldn’t help but feel moved. Caressing her cheeks, he urged her to get into the car.
At the next moment, the black limousine pulled out of the manor.
Pulling his phone out of his front pocket, he made a phone call. He spoke casually when the other end picked up. “Can we meet up somewhere, Aunt Lila?”
Lila ch ed warmly, “What made you think of me today, Mason?

It was early in the morning in June. The sun was shining brilliantly.
However, his face was as gloomy as it could be while he held his phone. “I understand. Thanks for being so concerned about me, Aunt
Lila!” Then, he hung up the phone.

Westley was bickering with Lisa in the living room.
Lisa stayed in her manor most of the time and didn’t really pay too much attention to what went on outside. So, she knew nothing about the homicidal case in Lockwood Hospital last night. She came here just to question her husband about Dewetta.
She had always been arrogant. Top that off with the fact that she was pissed off now, she was being as harsh as she could possibly be toward Westley.
“I don’t think you’re really there to work, Westley. I firmly believe that you’re there to get laid! That Dewetta character has to be over thirty years old. The way I hear it, she has had relationships with several guys. I can’t believe you slept with someone like her. You’re not very picky when it comes to ladies, are you, Westley?!”
Westley was quivering with rage now.
Pointing at Lisa, he said, “Stop accusing me without any evidence, Lisa! I didn’t do anything with her! Do you really think so badly of me? Do you think I sleep with a different lady every day? Is that what you think of me?”
Sneering, she said, “As far as I’m concerned, you’re an animal!”
Westley was done fighting with her. They had argued for more than a decade when he was still around. Their fights were so exhaustive that it took a toll on their marriage.
Now, he finally had a good life, but she still wanted to fight with him!
