Chapter 473: Chapter 474: Sense of Belonging

"Big brother, are you leaving again? What’s so good about the United States that you have to go back? I can hear grandpa and grandma’s angry voices." Hailey Griffith looked up at him, very reluctant to let go.

Her gaze was like a discarded kitten, making William Griffith’s expression soften, "Just one call from you, and I’ll be back at any time."

"Hmm." Hailey Griffith nodded, but there was still an air of melancholy between her brows.

William Griffith reached out and gently tousled her hair, speaking tenderly, "You don’t need to leave Haicheng, of course, if you really want to go somewhere, nobody can stop you. The point is, Hailey, live for yourself, you are great, you don’t need to cater to anyone, you have something that other girls don’t have."

"Really?" Hailey Griffith’s eyes suddenly brightened, and she looked up at him.

The momentary radiance in Hailey Griffith’s eyes, the expectations bursting from the depths of her eyes, vaguely stirred William Griffith’s memories. Those eyes in his memory were just as bright, even with a shy expression, pink lips, all clear in his mind. He solemnly nodded at Hailey Griffith, his fingers touching the piano keys and falling, "ding-" a sound rang.

Chloe Turner had been quietly waiting at home for three days. William Griffith’s phone was broken, so she was unable to contact him. The last phone call was three days ago in the afternoon. She directly called the company and was transferred to him. His voice on the phone was unusually low, he didn’t say anything, only reminding her to take care of herself.

Since the conversation with Grace Harper, Chloe Turner didn’t visit the Griffith much. She knew he had work to be busy with, so she didn’t bother him.

But as time passed, she finally couldn’t hold back.

Chloe Turner went to Yannis Griffith, but Yannis only said he didn’t know.

He wasn’t at the company, his phone was unreachable, Chloe Turner had no choice but to wait at Deep Wave Mansion.

She waited until six in the evening, and William Griffith still hadn’t appeared.

"William." Chloe Turner exclaimed with delight.

The exclamation caused William Griffith, who was standing in the elevator, to lift his head abruptly, only to see her. Upon recognizing her, his silence resumed, "Why are you standing here?"

"I..." Chloe Turner thought for a moment, then whispered, "I was just passing by and came up to see if you were in. I was about to leave when you arrived."

William Griffith used his key to open the door. As soon as the door opened, a chilly atmosphere filled the room.

Without the person who used to open the door for him, he had to adjust back to an empty apartment.

"Sit wherever you like." William Griffith walked into the apartment and spoke with a deep voice.

Chloe Turner was standing in the entrance, and she had already taken off her shoes, she was about to change into slippers when William Griffith, standing not far from her, firmly said, "No need to change."

There were two pairs of slippers on the shoe rack, matching male and female pairs, one pair each, seemed to be couple’s style.

Bold square pattern, both in blue, the men’s darker, the women’s lighter.

Chloe Turner stood there awkwardly and froze for a moment.

Perhaps the subconscious sense of belonging and acceptance had already taken root unknowingly.

Chloe Turner paused for a few seconds, then put her shoes back on. She went and sat on the couch in the living room, and William Griffith got a glass of juice from the fridge for her. Chloe Turner took the juice, took a sip, the apple flavor was very refreshing, she laughed and said, "How come you’ve started drinking juice now, you never used to."

William Griffith was taking a cigarette from the pack, Chloe Turner’s words made him pause. He didn’t reply, he just lit the cigarette.
