Chapter 414 From his grip, Xanthea could feel, oh no, he was really scared, and worse, angry! She quickly got to her feet and grabbed his hand with a look of guilty. "Orion, I'm so sorry, I had no idea it would scare you." The floor was not just splattered with strawberry juice but also scattered with fresh green leaves. She had thought he was clever enough to see right through her prank and just be momentarily stunned.

Her hand was brushed off, but she quickly grabbed it again. "I was wrong, I really was. Please, don't be mad, okay?" She looked up, unexpectedly meeting his icy, bone-chilling gaze and the thunderous anger barely contained in his furrowed brows. His expression scared her into silence.

"Ma'am, ma'am, are you t there?" Suddenly, the housekeeper's anxious voice echoed from the doorway.

He had been directing workers by the lake when he received a call from the young master, alerting him to a potential danger to the madam. He rushed over in a panic, and seeing the two of them safe, he was slightly relieved. But the atmosphere between them seemed off.

"Secure the estate, lock all the gates. No one is allowed in out The housekeeper. "Right away!" Xanthea was stunned by his hoarse, harsh command.

His voice? And why suddenly secure the estate? As she stood puzzled, her hand was forcefully released, and the sound of the door slamming shut isolated her completely.

"If you're really that mad, just yell at me, or cout and hit me, but please, don't ignore me, okay?" She kept knocking, but silence was the only response from within.

"Orion, Xan" Leonard stumbled in just as the butler was closing the door. The sight of what looked like "blood" everywhere nearly made his soul leap out of his body, until he noticed the vibrant fruit skin, the green leaves, and Xanthes pitifully knocking on the study door.

"Xan, what's going on here?" Xanthea turned, eyes full of guilt. "When he cback, I lay in a pool of strawberry juice to scare him," "To scare him? Leonard exclaimed, incredulously raising an eyebrow "Were you trying to give him a heart attack? "I didn't think that way."

"You dido't think he'd believe such an obvious setup, did you? Don't you know that when people are overly worried, they lose a sense of logic? He heard about you in the conference room and rushed out without a second thought. Anything concerning your safety, no matter how trivial, makes him lose his mind-let alone coming back to this scenel" "In the boardroom, he heard about in the conference room?" Xanthea didn't understand what he was talking about

Leonard took a deep breath. The hospital reported that Matthew had escaped with a knife, and he's coming to find you" "What?"

"At first, I thought it was ridiculous, Not to mention how far he could get with a knife, he doesn't even know! you're at Xanthea Haven Estate. And even if he did, with the estate's tight security, he couldn't get in. Orion knows this, but when it comes to your safety, he just can't stay calm... X
