When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 572: Clear Affection

This afternoon.

After work, Faye Turner tidied her desk, grabbed her bag, and took the elevator upstairs.

As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Dustin Shepherd carrying celebratory candies, and their eyes met.

Yes, he had been busy all day and still hadn’t finished distributing them, because President Lancaster had ordered batch after batch.

The main point was to show that money was no issue, to ensure everyone in the company got some, implying that this romance must be known to all.

Both of them stopped walking, Faye smiled gently, "Congratulations, Dustin."

Seeing the girl’s slightly rounded belly and the happiness in her eyes, Dustin nodded warmly, "Thank you." As long as she was happy, it felt like a sunny day to him.

Compared to Serena Sutton’s affection for him, he didn’t deny he had once liked Faye, yes, he had once liked her.

"Is Adrian inside?" she asked softly.

"He’s inside."

"Okay, I’ll go find him; you go ahead!" Saying this, she joyfully passed by him.

Dustin also carried the bag towards the elevator. Just like that, his life brushed past hers.

She knocked on the door and entered the office, "Adrian, are you working overtime today?"

Adrian Lancaster, sitting at his desk, tidied his documents, "I was just about to come find you, not working late."

"Then let’s go back to the old manor?" She walked towards him cheerfully, "Let’s visit your mom, grandpa, and have dinner!"

"Alright." He didn’t hesitate.

Just like that, the couple left hand in hand, and Mr. Kerr drove them back.

Because they hadn’t called ahead, when the Lamborghini stopped in the yard of The Lancaster Family’s old manor, Eliza Hayes couldn’t have been happier; she quickly put down her book and came out to greet them.

After work, Dustin Shepherd went straight to the wedding site.

Although the traditional Chinese wedding was very beautiful, time was too tight. Dustin, despite having found a great planning team, also integrated some of his own ideas.

With a bright red theme, the atmosphere was already lively, visually striking, both retro and upscale, and had a strong memorable impact.

The cost for just that scene was in the millions, something many people couldn’t achieve in a lifetime.

He couldn’t give her a wedding, but he could plan one for her, which for Dustin, was a kind of happiness.

He planned to pick a time to formally confess to Serena Sutton after the wedding concluded.

These past days, rumors flew around the company, and Serena Sutton’s image continually lingered in his mind.

At this time, Serena Sutton was working late at the office.

After dinner, she came out of the restaurant and didn’t see Dustin’s car parked at his usual spot.

Could he have left work already?

But she didn’t think much about it, though she felt a peculiar bit of disappointment in her heart.

Heading to the lobby, she took the elevator upstairs, returning to the office.

The design department had been busy lately, and she had to work a little late again. It was strange, as inspiration often came at night.

Returning to the office, she picked up her phone and browsed through her social circle, seeing Dustin’s likes and interactions, her lips couldn’t help but curve upwards, her heart feeling sweet.

Putting down her phone, she opened the computer and began to work.

Time slowly ebbed away, and outside, the twilight gradually darkened. The night descended, and the city lights sparkled.

Dustin knew her car was still at the dealership, and had heard from colleagues she hadn’t left work yet.

So, that night, he drove from the wedding site and parked outside the lobby waiting for her, with a bouquet of roses on the passenger seat.

Lowering the car window, he occasionally glanced at the glass door of the lobby not far away.

He waited for three hours.

Until 11 PM, Serena Sutton once again became the last person to leave the office. As she pressed the elevator button, she couldn’t help but think of last night...

Feeling a little disappointed, she realized she wouldn’t see him tonight.

Ding, the elevator stopped, the door opened.

She walked in alone, pressed number "1," the door closed, and the elevator descended. Leaned against the wall, she suddenly remembered the place where he had trapped her and that kiss...
