“Andrius?”
Chapter 553
Halle rushed out of the house when she heard the gate opening. She had an apron on and a spatula in her hand. She was actually practicing her culinary skills by making supper
She saw the drenched Andrius, soaking in not just the rain but also in alcohol.
Halle grumbled, “You look like you just swam across the Pacific. Where the hell were you? You are not a child anymore. Can’t you take care of yourself? You drink and you get yourself wet. Even if your body is made out of steel, it will rust!”
She grumbled as she took off Andrius‘ wet shirt and tossed it into the washing machine. She then care back with a towel to dry his body off.
Since Andrius got drenched in the rain, it would be better for him to take a shower immediately, or else he would catch a cold.
However, he was drunk, and Halle was afraid that he would slip in the bathroom, so she simply wiped him clean. She was careful and meticulous when she dabbed his body.
After that, Halle carried him to the couch. She was afraid that he would catch a cold, so she grabbed the blanket and covered it over his body.
Then, she returned to the kitchen.
They were like husband and wife who had been married for years.
It warmed Andrius‘ heart. He remembered that the day they first met, Halle told him to stay away from Luna in a commanding tone.
Now, after a few months together, they were closer than ever.
Andrius had some supper since Halle was cooking.
It was already late when he was done. Halle helped him to his room and tucked him in before she went back to her room.
After a quiet night, Andrius woke up the following day to find breakfast on the table.
“You’re up.”
Halle put her hand on his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief when it did not feel hot.
“Don’t do that again. You drank and even got drenched in the rain. It’s worrisome.”
Andrius rolled his eyes at her and said helplessly, “I told you many times. Don’t be so good to me. I am not a Sumerian, and I will leave sooner or later. Until then, if you break down because you miss me too much, I won’t be able to do anything.”
He did not care what Halle’s reaction was and went to the bathroom to wash his face.
Halle pondered as she looked at his back. She had a lot of words in her mind, but even after Andrius was done brushing his teeth and had his breakfast, she still could not form a proper sentence.
“Andrius…”
Finally, Halle mustered up enough courage to speak.
Then, Andrius‘ phone rang.
The moment he answered the phone, Luna’s anxious voice rang out, “Andrius, where are you? Something has happened to the Valiant Institute. I need you to come back here immediately.”
“Alright.”
Andrius darted off as soon as he hung up the phone.
Halle felt slightly depressed and sad as she watched him leave the house.
Andrius headed to Luna’s office where Fatty Frank was.
“What happened?”
The Valiant Institute was built for the welfare of the veterans, so other than their safety, Andrius could not think of any other problem.
Luna’s beautiful face looked anxious. “Actually, there’s a foreign company entering Sumeria and they have their eyes on the Valiant Institute. And, they are planning to skip the local government and go straight to the East River State office to apply to demolish the building so that they can build their commercial building.”
Demolish?
Andrius was furious.
