Chapter 176: Get Out Of Here

Gallon didn’t use navigation and seemed familiar with the roads.

Claire leaned against the seat, with her head propped in a hand. Her eyes were narrowed, almost dozing facing the car window.

No one spoke.

The atmosphere in the car was stifling. It was dead silent.

Soon, the car stopped in front of the Garcias’ house.

Claire took the lead to get out of the car, while Gallon was still sitting inside, looking up at the second floor of the villa through the car window.

The sunshine was so dazzling that his eyes soured.

In a daze, he saw a beautiful girl standing on the balcony. The girl in a white dress poked her head out and curled her lips. Her smile was brighter than the warm sun and her voice was melodious and sweet.

She called him over and over again. “Dr. Miller… Dr. Miller…”

Claire suddenly knocked on the car window.

Only then did Gallon wake up from his reverie and find that the balcony on the second floor was empty and no one was there.

The two walked into the gate, and a few servants ran out to greet them. When they saw Gallon, their expressions instantly changed.

There were whispers in the hall.

“How could it be him…”

“Why is he here?”

“Young Master shouldn’t have let him go back then!”

At this moment, Angus walked in from outside the gate, took off his coat casually, and threw it to the servant next to him. His assistant followed behind and gave his report.

When he noticed Gallon, his pupils shook and he stopped abruptly. His face turned ferocious bit by bit with anger.

He asked, gnashing his teeth. “Gallon Miller, how do you have the cheek to come here?!”

Claire narrowed her eyes and looked at Gallon next to her, only to see him lower his head and clench his hands. His face had turned pale.

“Shawn, take Miss Claire to the study on the second floor.” Angus stared at Gallon and said angrily. “You, get out of here!”

Claire suddenly clenched the knife in her cuffs and stared sharply at Angus. “Be respectful to my friend.”

Gallon grabbed her hand and said hoarsely, “I’m waiting for you in the car.”

With that, he stepped out of the door.

Shawn took Claire to the second floor. The next door swung open, and a man came out from inside.

Claire glanced at him.

He looked very familiar.

She had met him at that charity dinner. He was the Yu Kingdom’s noble, Bill Carter.

His butler, Paul, followed behind.

When Paul saw Claire, his eyes widened in surprise, and then he smiled and greeted her. “Hello, nice to meet you again.”

Claire nodded slightly.

It seemed that they lived in the Garcias’ house.

Bill walked to the front and found that Paul hadn’t followed, so he stopped and turned his head. Seeing that Paul was talking to Claire, his face instantly darkened, and his voice sounded annoyed. “Hurry up!”

Paul seemed to be startled and hurriedly ran towards Bill.

Walking into the study, Shawn suddenly asked her. “Is Gallon Miller your friend?”

Claire raised her brows. “Yes, any problem?”

“I advise you not to associate with him.”

“Does it have anything to do with you?” Claire sat lazily on the sofa, holding up a Go piece, and playing with it.

Speechless, Shawn didn’t speak anymore and turned to leave the study.

In fact, Claire could guess what had happened.

Four years ago, Gallon caused a patient to die due to his hypnosis treatment on her.

That patient was the Garcias’ daughter.

She should be Angus’s younger sister.

Angus seemed to hate Claire. After playing only two games of Go with her, he said that he had something to tend to and told her to leave.

Claire left the Garcias’ house and got in the car.

In the car, Gallon put his head on the steering wheel, remaining motionless. She could not see his expression clearly.

Claire leaned back against the seat.

After a moment of silence, she said slowly, “Are you okay?”
