Chapitre 289: Stop!

Yuri, who stood before his desk, shook his head. "Not at all, sir. Why do you ask?"

Caesar was a bit reluctant, but he eventually said, "Something is wrong with my wife. But she won't tell me." 

"What makes you think that?" Yuri probed, curious. 

"Something was off about her when I came back. She was…" Caesar paused for a second. "She was crying." 

"Huh?" Yuri immediately furrowed his brows. "That's i-impossible. I saw her an hour again before you came back and she looked just fine. She even went to the garden at the back to take care of the flowers herself." 

Now, Caesar was even more confused. If what Yuri said was true, then what was going on? Adeline wouldn't just cry for no reason.

A deep sigh fled his nose and he nodded, waving a hand of dismissal at Yuri.,
