Top Actress Beware: Also Reborn Is Your CEO Husband!

Chapter 1241: Chapter 1241: The Shadow Outside the Window

At that time, she didn’t think things would get this serious, especially since her first instinct was to secretly investigate the events of that year without letting Mason Nightshade know. This naturally couldn’t be divulged to Mason!

Who knew the news would still reach Mason’s ears.

Aurelia considered releasing the soldier. If Mason saw that she was scared, maybe his heart would soften and he would forgive her?

But upon second thought, Aurelia dismissed the idea.

What if Mason was really heartless, ignored her, and left her to the soldier... She would suffer, frightened out of her wits, and still unable to win him back.

Aurelia’s guess wasn’t impossible. That soldier was useless, with a fearsome appearance, yet he wasn’t truly going to harm her.

Mason went straight to the study, while Aurelia returned to the bedroom and dialed Hadrian Turner’s number.

Before she could speak, Hadrian already confessed to "betraying" her, apologizing in a low voice, "Aurelia, are you angry with me? I didn’t mean to. When I heard the police mistakenly thinking you were a murderer, I didn’t know what to do at the time..."

Aurelia had already thought it was Hadrian who said it, "Forget it, you said it, you said it. You should have Nolan Lawson’s detailed information, right? Send me a copy, and then help me investigate how Emily Stewart and Nolan Lawson know each other."

How could two people with no intersection start a relationship?

...

Just as Mason walked into the study, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller indifferently and answered.

"Boss, Emily Stewart has been restrained."

On the way to the police station, Mason instructed someone to move Emily Stewart to an independent location. He couldn’t guarantee this woman wouldn’t do something to harm Aurelia in front of the media.

Any possibility of such an outcome was unacceptable to him.

Of course, Mason didn’t use coercive measures; everyone has things they fear.

"Why is your woman always causing trouble?" A man’s voice sounded, and Mason’s eyes narrowed fiercely into a line. He looked towards the window where the curtain swayed, and saw Grayson Quinn crouching there, legs bent and jumping down steadily.

"She didn’t cause this trouble," Mason said.

"Then someone is deliberately trying to hurt your woman," Grayson said. "Is it someone you’ve offended, or someone she’s offended?... It shouldn’t be from your side; the people on your side are generally ruthless, preferring assassination and surprise attacks."

Grayson sat down, "The president asked me to check on you. If you need help, just ask, but don’t step out of line."

It was a reminder sent his way.

...

Bathroom.

Aurelia had her hand on the edge of the bathtub, browsing through the materials sent by Hadrian, when a shadow flickered outside the window, instantly alerting her.

This was the second floor, and who dared to sneak a peek in the old house anyway?

Aurelia grabbed her robe and quickly wrapped herself, keeping a keen eye on the dark window. After a moment’s observation, she cautiously pushed it open.

Seeing no movement, Aurelia went over and looked outside.

No shadow.

But she was sure she hadn’t seen wrong. What was the intruder’s purpose for climbing to the second floor? Peeping at her... that seemed to lack ambition...

Just as Aurelia was deep in thought, there was a knock at the door.

Aurelia locked the window, opened the room door, and saw Butler Lee standing outside. Aurelia was momentarily stunned; shouldn’t Butler Lee be at the hospital taking care of grandpa at this hour?

"It’s so late, is there something wrong?" Aurelia asked.

"Young master instructed me to bring this up," Butler Lee said, holding a bowl of porridge.
