Chapter 160 New Start

• ADELINE’S POV
• “What are you doing here?” I ask him with a raise of my brow, folding my arms across my chest. He scans my body from head to toe, but not in a sexual way. He’s looking at me like he wants to make sure I am healthy. Like he wants to make sure I have not a single bruise on m skin, but his stare sends heat straight to my stomach. Something I thought I would never feel again.
• “I thought you made it very clear to me that helping me reach my goals is out of the question.” He takes a step closer to me and I don’t budge. I keep staring at him with my hands folded across my chesty, betraying no emotions on my face. I’m angry with him and I hope he can see it.
