Chapter 286 Neither Keith nor Tina expected to find an uninvited guest at the door. Samuel Langford had actually shown up in person!
Even more frightening was the fact that Tina was standing right behind Keith. If Samuel lifted his head ever so slightly, her undisguised face would be exposed to Samuel in all its glory!
Tina couldn‘t react. All the blood in her body froze. Thankfully, young Keith‘s reflexes were lightning fast.
Samuel had his head lowered to look at Keith, but when he realized there was someone else in the room, he prepared to look up. It was then that Keith shouted loudly. “What‘s that?!”.
He stuck out his hand and pointed behind Samuel.
Ever cautious, Samuel turned his head for a look.
At the same time, Tina snapped back to reality and hurriedly hid herself in a corner. She picked up the cocktail hat from the ground and put it on, covering half of her face.
”
Behind Samuel were only a few of his subordinates. Everyone else had already gone away. The moment he turned his head, Samuel knew he had been tricked. He glanced coldly at Keith.
“What are you up to?”
Anyone else would have wet their pants at such a frigid look from Samuel.
However, Keith was unmoved. He only shrugged calmly.
“It‘s just a joke. Are you going to be so particular with a kid like me?”
Samuel was speechless. The employees around him couldn‘t help but wipe away their cold sweat. All thought that Keith should have stayed silent.
As expected, the aura around Samuel turned colder.
Only, he really didn’t seem interested in pursuing the matter any further with a child like Keith.
Follow me. Don‘t run off.” “Okay, got it.” Surprisingly, Keith went along with it. From the surface, he still looked like the cool and haughty little man he always was.
However, his small hands were clenched into fists. He was so anxious, his palms were covered
in sweat. After all, he was worried he would accidentally cause Tina to be discovered by Samuel.
Samuel once again looked into the room.
In her hat with her head bowed, Tina called out deferentially, “Mr. Langford!” Samuel‘s brows knitted together as he said, “You have quite a good relationship with this woman. Those who don‘t know the truth might assume she‘s your mother.”
“Is that so? I wish!” Keith said huffily. “Even dogs get excited seeing someone who feeds them. I‘m a kid. Of course I like hanging out with someone who‘s nice to me.” With the cold way this pair spoke to each other, it seemed like the father and son were about to get into a fight. The subordinates around them quickly spoke up. “Mr. Langford, you drank quite a lot at the banquet. You should probably hurry back and rest.” “That‘s right, that‘s right! Now that Young Master Keith has been found, you can leave him to
Us...”
At these cajoling words, Samuel coldly turned to go and moved toward the room next door. “Take good care of him.” “Yes, sir!!! After Samuel left, the oppressive tension finally dissipated. The subordinates could finally breathe a sigh of relief. To Keith, they said, “Let‘s go back now, Young Master Keith.” Keith went along with them. Out of curiosity, he asked something. “Is he resting alone in the room? Where‘s my mom gone?” Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
