When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 897: A Bad Choice of Friends, Brother-in-Law Is Angry
"Milo, this bar isn’t for regular folks, every sip costs money. You’re not drinking, just thinking about your sister?"
"Who’s not drinking? He’s had quite a bit, can’t even stand straight now."
"If we weren’t with you, we probably couldn’t have come here either."
"Milo, is your brother-in-law really the president of Prestige Group?"
Clearly, the two companions weren’t genuinely concerned about him; they were hanging out with him because of his connections.
"He really is," Milo slurred drunkenly.
One of them happily guaranteed, "We’ll definitely be friends with you."
Adrian Lancaster frowned as he approached, with his bodyguards following, blocking the path of the three students, "Milo Turner!"
The cold yet familiar voice rang in Milo Turner’s ears, making him tense all over.
The tipsy Milo raised his head to meet his brother-in-law’s gaze, and a heavy thump hit his heart, sobering him up instantly.
Adrian Lancaster scrutinized him, noticing the strong smell of alcohol!
The companions also looked up, shocked and eyes sparkling upon seeing Adrian Lancaster, the man that’s a myth in Argent, they actually saw him tonight??
"Brother-in-law!" one of the classmates called excitedly, "We’re Milo’s friends, so it’s no issue calling you brother-in-law too, right?"
Another quickly chimed in, "Hello, brother-in-law."
Only Milo Turner remained silent, looking guilty.
"Milo, come with me." Adrian Lancaster didn’t acknowledge them; he looked sternly at his brother-in-law.
After speaking, he turned and left, not saying anything more in front of the classmates, clearly disappointed in Milo’s choice of friends.
Milo Turner felt extremely guilty, his heart was in a panic, not knowing how to face his brother-in-law.
His brother-in-law turned to leave, but the bodyguards remained, waiting for him.
The classmates wisely let go of him, and Milo Turner looked at the two of them before stepping forward, the bodyguards following behind.
Seeing this scene, the classmates couldn’t help but comment——
"That’s so cool!"
"I didn’t expect it to really be President Lancaster."
"If I had such a brother-in-law, I’d wake up laughing from my dreams."
"Come on, haven’t you seen the news? His sister’s been missing for so long, who knows if that brother-in-law’s still his."
At the Lamborghini, Adrian Lancaster opened the car door, turned, and looked at Milo Turner, "Back home or back to school?"
Milo Turner, reeking of alcohol and somewhat unsteady, was sobered again by the cold wind and his brother-in-law’s deep, cold gaze.
He didn’t answer, just took a few steps forward and bent down to get into the car.
Adrian Lancaster sat inside afterward, the door closing, with two bodyguards getting into the driver’s and front passenger’s seats.
His thin lips parted slightly, "To my mother-in-law’s home." His tone wasn’t heavy, but it carried some authority.
"Yes, boss."
The car started, and Milo Turner became even more alert, suddenly turning to look at him, "..." Did he hear wrong just now? Taking him home???
It’s almost an hour from here to home!
And he has classes at school tomorrow morning!
His brother-in-law had such a strong presence that he naturally didn’t dare to say anything, while Adrian Lancaster leaned back in his seat along the way, arms crossed, resting with his eyes closed.
His brother-in-law said nothing, leaving Milo Turner very uneasy.
He wanted to explain, but couldn’t find the words, and if his mother found out, he truly feared her blood pressure would spike.
In his anxiety, he turned and grabbed his brother-in-law’s arm, blurting out, "Brother-in-law, I was wrong, can you take me back to school instead? I don’t want to go home."
