Chapter 555
“No, no.” Tiffany chose to refuse, of course.
However, her refusal was… ineffective.
Richard picked her up horizontally and carried her into the bathroom.
Tiffany’s mouth was sealed by a scorching kiss before she could say anything.
“Ugh…”
‘Fine. Then… let him do whatever he wanted,‘ thought Tiffany.
It was close to noon when Tiffany came out of her room, still a bit uneasy. She breathed a sigh of relief only after making sure that marks were fully covered by her clothes, and then she walked downstairs.
June had been waiting all morning downstairs. When she finally saw Tiffany come down, she asked, “Miss Kelley, have we changed our schedule?”
Tiffany was a little embarrassed.
She told June they were going out at 10 a.m. before she went to bed at 6 a.m.
Unexpectedly, Richard came, and she woke up late. Not only did she wake up late, but she also dawdled until this hour.
‘It is all Richard’s fault, the culprit!‘ thought Tiffany.
Tiffany blushed and replied, “Um… I woke up late.”
June had no intention of complaining and was just asking. Her heart ached for Tiffany for not sleeping the entire night, so when she saw Tiffany had yet to go downstairs at 10 a.m., she did not knock on the door to ask since she wanted Tiffany to
rest more.
June smiled and said, “You must be hungry. Let’s put the schedule aside for now. Miss Kelley, come and eat.”
“Okay.”
Tiffany walked to the dining table as instructed.
She heard footsteps from the staircase as soon as she sat down,
Richard slowly walked downstairs.
His handsome face was flawless and captivating.
Richard’s aura was powerful. Almost the moment he appeared, everyone felt a sense of oppression. It was the inherent pressure and aura of a superior. He always attracted attention and made people want to submit wherever he went.
June was stunned and asked in surprise, “Mr. Hampton is here?”
Tiffany looked up, blinked, and greeted in surprise, “Eh, you’re here, too? What a coincidence.”
“Yes, what a coincidence,” said Richard.
Coincidentally, they were still having fun ten minutes ago.
Richard looked at Tiffany. His deep eyes were dyed with a faint smile.

He went downstairs after Tiffany, pretending not to know and pretending that Tiffany’s late wake–up was not because she wasn’t with him, which was what Tiffany had repeatedly ordered Richard to do before she went downstairs.
So, others would not associate her late wake–up with him.
He could only indulge Tiffany who was adorably threatening him with her tiny fists.
Richard walked straight to Tiffany and sat down.
Upon seeing that, June immediately asked the maid to get another bowl and fork.
Richard raised his eyebrows and said, “No need. I’m full.”
His gaze did not leave Tiffany when he said so.
‘What should I do? I always feel I can’t get enough of her every time I look at her… thought Richard.
Tiffany glared at him reproachfully, then lowered her head and ate seriously.
However, the tips of her ears turned red.
Richard curled his lips. The smile in his eyes did not diminish at all. “Honey, you have to eat more.”
‘Otherwise, you’re too light to hold. Besides… you don’t have much strength, thought Richard.
Tiffany was at a loss.
Of course, Tiffany understood what he was implying. She was choked instantly and coughed violently.
Upon seeing that, Richard pushed the water on the table over and stood up. He gently patted Tiffany’s back and sighed helplessly. “Eat slowly. I won’t snatch it from you.”
At the side, June sniggered when she saw that. Then, she waved to dismiss all the servants and left the dining room.
Garry and John also wanted to rush in when they heard Richard come, but June stopped them.
“Talk later if you have anything to say. There’s no hurry,” said June.
They were safe in the castle. With Richard’s arrival, Garry and the others had a backbone and did not have to worry anything else. They were sensible and did not continue to charge in.
There were only Tiffany and Richard in the dining room.
After drinking a glass of water, Tiffany’s choking feeling eased a little.
She looked around and saw no one.
Great!

Tiffany suddenly reached out and twisted Richard’s chest. She said angrily, “Bastard. You’re pretending to be obedient after taking advantage of me.”
However, Richard’s muscles were too firm. She could not twist it even though she tried hard…
Tiffany let go in defeat and turned her face away angrily.
Richard chuckled. “Huh? Did I say anything that would cause a misunderstanding?”
“You…”

Come to think of it, there wasn’t.
However, Tiffany felt guilty, so she felt there was another meaning behind his words. And… she understood it instantly.
Tiffany pursed her lips and lowered her head to continue eating
She was indeed hungry.
Richard sat aside and looked at her. His cold gaze became gentler.
He even handed Tiffany a napkin when she finished eating.
“Thank you,” said Tiffany.
She took it. After wiping her mouth, she asked, “By the way, you dealt with Felix before, and do you know his true strength?”
Regarding the person from last night, there were no investigation results yet.
She asked June to investigate the transactions between Felix and Morwen, but she could not find anything.
‘Grandpa’s condition was critical. If I do not think of a way to treat his illness, I’m afraid…‘ thought Tiffany.
Upon hearing Tiffany’s words, Richard frowned and asked, “Why did you think of Felix again?”
His sour tone confirmed he was jealous.
Tiffany rolled her eyes and snapped, “Tell me quickly.”
“He’s so–so. Anyway, he’s not as good as me,” said Richard.
‘Why did Richard sound like a jealous child?‘ thought Tiffany.
The corner of Tiffany’s eyes twitched. She was angry and amused. “I’m serious. Tell me quickly.”
“So–so.”
Richard was serious this time, but whether he said it or not made no difference.
Tiffany sighed.
The difference in strength between her and Richard was huge. The ‘So–so‘ Richard mentioned was a height she could not reach now.
Tiffany thought for a while and then recounted everything that happened last night.
“Yesterday, that black shadow appeared so suddenly that I didn’t even see what it was before a knife flew over. I dodged it and looked again, but that thing was already gone.”
It was not a machine that could attack her.
After thinking about it, she could only think of someone. And he must be someone with great strength, even with special abilities.
She had to be wary of that.
After listening to Tiffany’s words, Richard frowned as if worried about her experience last night. After all, it was dangerous.
At the thought of that, he could only be glad he had come overnight. Otherwise, who knew what would have happened if he had left Tiffany here alone?

Richard sighed and replied, “Your concern is not misplaced, but that person can’t be Felix.”
“Why?”
Upon hearing his confident tone, Tiffany was puzzled.
‘Could it be my initial conjecture is wrong?‘ thought Tiffany.
