Chapter 361: Chapter 361

“Hmph, you big meanie, always bullying me.”

In her room, Xanthea was packing a Hello Kitty toy into her suitcase when she heard Zora’s voice from outside, “Miss, Mr. Lockwood is leaving.

Master and Madam asked you to go and say goodbye. They are in the back garden.”

“What?!”

“What?!”

He’s leaving so soon? He must be angry!

In the back garden, a man of striking posture stood before a mutated iris, gently caressing its withered stems and leaves.

“Orion!”

He turned around and saw the girl running over, breathless, pulling a red suitcase. His expression momentarily froze, “Xannie?”

“Ethan and Samuel are too much. Let’s ignore them and go back to Sunset Hills Estates together!”

No sooner had she spoken than the man’s puzzled look turned into one of deep, fervent intensity. He stepped forward quickly and pulled her into a tight embrace.

“Ah!”

Xanthea was caught off guard, her heart skipping a beat.

He must have been sad and hurt after having his scars revealed by her brother, so that he’s seeking comfort from her.

“Ori, don’t be sad, don’t be sad. Xannie will protect you!”

She reached out and gently patted his back, as if comforting a wounded child.

Orion, with his face buried in her dark, silky hair, felt the cold gloom in his heart dissipate the moment he saw her, heard her voice, and breathed in her scent.

His Xannie, was she really not an angel in disguise?

How could she be so good.

Xanthea: “Orion, if you’re really upset, you can cry. I won’t make fun of you.”

“Heh.”

Before she could finish, he let out a soft chuckle.

Xanthea: “?” Did he lose his mind?

“I’m too happy to be upset.”

“Huh? Big brother revealed your wounds, you’re not angry?”

Those wounds had long been healed by you.

“But Xan defended me and argued for me.”

Little did she know, it took all his restraint not to kiss her in front of everyone.

“Then...” Xanthea looked at him with slight confusion, “Ethan bullied you like that, and you’re not angry?”

“Not angry.” Orion gently brushed her bangs aside, his eyes deep, “If they bully me, I’ll just take it out on you.”

Xanthea: “???” What kind of logic was that? Brother’s debt paid by sister?

Just as she was about to argue, she felt his “bullying,” her cheeks instantly flushing.

Orion’s eyes twinkled with a deep meaning, “But I can make it rain.”

Xanthea quickly caught on and pounded his chest in embarrassment and annoyance, “You jerk, you rogue!”

“Weren’t you just about to elope with this rogue?”

“Who, who said that! I was just...”

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely marry you with all the proper ceremonies.”

Xanthea saw him getting carried away and raised her head proudly yet shyly, “Keep dreaming, I might not marry you!”

Orion’s eyes narrowed, revealing a dangerous glint, “If you don’t marry me, who will you marry then?”

“Let me know when you make the decision, so I can deal with him.”

“Hahaha, I’ll marry you!”

“You agreed?”

“Sly Fox, you tricked me again!”

In the back garden, the sweet and happy laughter of the couple echoed.

Ethan and Samuel stood behind a carved window, watching the scene from afar.

“Who would’ve thought, Orion, the business genius, is even more lovesick than Xan!”

To win Xan, he was willing to offer his entire fortune as a betrothal gift. That was crazy.

“Let’s hope Xan didn’t choose the wrong person this time and can stay this happy.”

“Orion,” Xanthea, hooking her arms around his neck, beamed with happiness, “I haven’t even praised you yet. You’ve made my parents so happy, they’ll definitely agree to our relationship soon!”

“They’ve already agreed, your brothers too.”

“Really? That’s great!”

Xanthea jumped up with joy, and Orion embraced her, murmuring deeply, “Yes, from now on, Xannie will be mine.”

“Tomorrow the crew wraps up filming, let’s celebrate together, okay?”

“Sure.”
