When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 226: What Shocked Faye Turner

Adrian Lancaster looked into the girl’s light amber eyes, and he suddenly felt that there was no need for further explanation, because her mind was clear.

So, he nodded, "Yes, I have no feelings for Ivy Jennings."

The girl’s lips curved into a broad smile, "I’m glad you brought this up with me on your own. If I needed an explanation, you would explain, right?"

Adrian Lancaster answered with silence, but actually, the answer was: Yes.

Even for the sake of his grandfather, he wouldn’t upset her. Since he chose to marry, he hoped to live well.

"Rest early, don’t stay up too late." Adrian Lancaster ran out of words momentarily, saying to her, "You didn’t sleep well last night, so make up for it tonight."

After speaking, he turned and left.

Looking at that long back, Faye Turner felt warmth in her heart. At least he knew, last night, in order to wait for him, she stayed up all night.

Was it Dustin Shepherd who told him?

About half an hour later, the phone placed beside Faye Turner’s mouse chimed with a WeChat notification.

She opened it and saw a text message from Milo Turner.

Just one sentence —

Sis, you really landed a gem, brother-in-law is truly great. Never noticed before.

To be honest, reading these words, Faye Turner felt a bit perplexed.

A bit confused.

Because it didn’t make sense, the news was written like this, how come her brother still praised him?

But Faye Turner didn’t think much of it, quickly edited a few words and sent: What happened?

After a while, Milo replied again —

[Last night I was in a bad mood, called brother-in-law, he came over to drink a few bucks’ worth of beer with me, kept encouraging me, and suddenly I felt he wasn’t distant, not so high and mighty, he’s just an ordinary person with flesh and blood.]

Faye Turner read this text three times over, her eyes sank with disbelief, and she suddenly realized something.

Shortly, Milo sent another message —

He drank, couldn’t drive, not sure how he went back last night.

Clearly, Milo was busy with studies at school and hadn’t had time to follow the news.

But Faye Turner was stunned; did Adrian Lancaster meet Milo last night?

Then why didn’t he mention it earlier?

Was it because he drank, couldn’t drive, and coincidentally ran into Ivy Jennings, who drove him home?

On the way, Adrian fell asleep because he was too tired; Ivy, who had always liked him, got impulsive and, on her whim, drove the car to the outskirts?

Faye Turner’s thoughts were still clear, clear enough to analyze.

On further contemplation, Faye felt it also made sense.

Because she always believed Adrian Lancaster could really have nothing with Ivy Jennings.

But she didn’t expect that he was actually called out by Milo last night.

If Milo hadn’t mentioned it today, perhaps she would never have known about it.

"Until what time did you guys drink?" Faye edited the text and asked.

Soon, Milo replied: Around one or two in the morning, can’t remember precisely, just very late. He walked me to the school gate.

Receiving this information, Faye Turner remained shocked for a long time.

After chatting with her brother, she still couldn’t calm her heart.

Nighttime.

After showering, Faye Turner lay sideways on the bed, next to Adrian Lancaster.

Adrian Lancaster sat at the bedside, wearing pajamas, covered with a quilt, reading a book, his distinctly jointed fingers flipping the pages.

"Milo asked me to thank you." She looked at the man’s handsome profile and spoke softly.

He heard and turned his gaze, "..." meeting her eyes.

"Thank you for going out with him last night, for guiding him." Faye said softly, feeling quite moved inside.

Adrian Lancaster wasn’t good at explaining, nor did he bother to explain, believing truth needs no explanation.

But at this moment, facing the girl’s gentle gaze, he couldn’t help but say a few more words —

"I called for two drivers, but because the car was too expensive, they didn’t dare to drive; before I could say they wouldn’t be liable for any issues, they vanished."

"It was too late, didn’t want to disturb Mr. Kerr, and then..."

"And then you ran into Ivy Jennings?" Her voice was light, guessing without anger.
