Chapter 158: Chapter 158

Strange.

We had seen them go upstairs together just now.

How could they not be here?

I turned to Riley for answers.

But just as I turned my head, I saw that Riley’s face was suddenly ghastly pale.

“Riley?” I asked worriedly.

Riley didn’t respond.

She touched her forehead and seemed to wince in pain.

The next second, she staggered forward and I immediately reached out to help her up.

“Look out!” After helping Riley up, I turned around again, only to find Caleb and Adam in the study.

What the hell? Was I imagining things just now? How did they suddenly appear inside the study?

I was stunned.

I didn’t know what happened.

Riley shook her head and came to her senses.

“Debra, come on.

Let’s give them the dessert.

”

Perhaps it was because Riley wanted to show only her good side in front of her husband that she especially tidied up a few strands of her messy hair before knocking on the door and walking in

“Here’s dessert.

Don’t mind me.

You can talk while eating,” Riley said, smiling at the two men brightly.

Adam, on the other hand, looked extremely unhappy.

He shouted, “Didn’t I say that you’re not allowed to enter the study without my permission? Are you deaf?”

Debra’s POV:

“I’m sorry,” Riley apologized, looking down dejectedly.

Her eyes were filled with sadness.

She put down the tray of dessert and left sadly.

I stood there motionlessly, not knowing how to react.

Adam was obviously very upset.

After Riley left, he vented his anger on me.

“What the hell are you looking at? Who said you can come in with her?”

“Riley said that you might want some dessert, so—”

Before I could finish my sentence, Adam interrupted me harshly.

“I just said that no one’s allowed to enter the study without my permission!” Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Caleb stepped in to mediate.

He gave me a meaningful Look and then said to Adam, “Let’s talk another day.

I’ll get going for now.

”

Adam’s tone softened a Little.

“Okay.

”

After saying goodbye politely, Caleb took my hand and led me away from the suffocating study.

Even after making it downstairs, I was still reeling from the fact that Adam and Caleb disappeared and then appeared again in the study.

It was just so weird.

Perhaps there was a secret chamber in Adam’s study.

That was the only reasonable explanation for what happened just now.

After leaving Adam’s house, Caleb suddenly stopped me and asked, “Debra, did you see anything just now?”

As he spoke, he stared at me intently with his sharp eyes, as though he was trying to gauge my reaction.

After the slightest hesitation, I lied.

“No.
