My Aloof Husband, Mr. Drexler, Dotes Me Excessively
Chapter 17: Something Feels Off...
CHAPTER 17: CHAPTER 17: SOMETHING FEELS OFF...
"But don’t worry, as long as you teach me how to make chicken soup, I promise not to mention a word about you and the old man."
Hearing this, the expression on Butler Wang’s face was filled with hesitation.
Seeing this, Summer Shawcross continued.
"I truly support you two. True love knows no age. I still support you in pursuing true love!"
She was sincere about this, because she knew that in two years, the old-fashioned Butler Wang would marry that old man Liu, but just a year later, the old man would pass away, leaving Butler Wang heartbroken, and she would resign her position and return to her hometown.
Later, she learned that Butler Wang was actually a person with a tough life, forced to marry a drunkard by her family when she was young. After marriage, she suffered domestic violence. Fortunately, the drunkard died of alcohol after a few years. She worked hard everywhere to raise her children, doing all kinds of dirty and tiring work. By the time her children were grown, she was old, and when she finally met someone understanding, that person also passed away a few years later.
Therefore, she now hopes that Butler Wang can cherish the remaining time and be well with the one she loves.
After Summer Shawcross finished speaking, Butler Wang showed a surprised expression on her face and asked her somewhat uncertainly.
"Ma’am, do you really think this way?"
"Yes." Summer Shawcross nodded seriously.
In response, Butler Wang couldn’t help but sigh.
"Ah... but I’m worried..."
"Worried about people’s opinions? But life is so short, meeting someone you love isn’t easy. Maybe he appeared a bit late, but it’s good he’s here, so you need to hold on tight." Summer Shawcross couldn’t help but lament.
She understood too late before, and by the time she realized it at death, she found she was so foolish and had missed the man who loved her the most, but by then, everything was too late.
After hearing Summer’s words, Butler Wang’s eyes turned red, and she couldn’t help but wipe them. Even she couldn’t believe that the person who understood her the most right now was someone she had always dismissed, Summer Shawcross.

Morning, TR Group Building, Boss’s Office.
Just after attending a signing ceremony for an important project under the group, Noah Drexler had just returned to the office and was preparing for the next meeting.
Noah Drexler leaned back in the black leather chair, flipping through the documents in his hand while sipping coffee.
After a while, he put down the coffee, turned his gaze to Sean Morgan, who was standing by the desk, and suddenly asked.
"How’s the old man lately?"
"Nothing unusual, but the doctor said his health seems to have improved a lot recently." Sean Morgan lowered his head and immediately responded.
Hearing this, Noah Drexler squinted his eyes, a look of scheming flashing through his eyes.
At this moment, Sean Morgan’s phone suddenly vibrated. He took out his phone and looked at it.
"Boss, it’s a call from home."
"Answer it." Noah Drexler gave him a glance.
Sean Morgan nodded and answered the call, pressing the speakerphone button.
"Something’s wrong, Mr. Morgan, Madam wants to make chicken soup for the boss. I feel something isn’t right..."
As soon as the call connected, the serious yet anxious voice of the butler came through the phone.
Upon hearing these words, Sean Morgan was taken aback and immediately thought of something, hurriedly instructing.
"Then stop her quickly!"
Knowing how much Summer Shawcross resents the boss, why would she be kind enough to make soup for him? There’s obviously something fishy going on here!
