Chapter 183 Let Me Go, You Sick B*stard

“There’s a step here. Be careful, Young Mistress.”

Courtney held onto the door frame for support when she heard the housekeeper. “Oh, where did the two children go? There’s a lot of people here. They have to be watched over closely.”

“Little Master and Little Miss have been sent back to their rooms. They have a nanny watching and staying close to them. You don’t have to worry, Young Mistress. It’s quite windy today. Let’s go back inside before you catch a cold.”

“It’s fine. Don’t worry about me. I want to get some air and sober up.”

Courtney freed her hand from the housekeeper’s grasp and waved her off.

As the night breeze blew under the eaves of the veranda, it carried the fragrance of the flowers with it.

“Are you okay, cousin-in-law?”

A man’s voice sounded, catching her off guard. Narrowing her eyes in the direction of the voice, she saw a gray shadow under the eaves of the veranda. He was wearing a silvery-gray suit and looked to be around the same age as Alexander.
