Chapter 141 Chapter 141: Mr. Night Visited Your School? Angels POV I stood at the school entrance, watching Christopher guide the twins through the Inige wonden doors.
They looked so small next to his tall figure, with Arla bouncing exclledly as she told him about her upcoming art project while Ethan walked with his usual measured steps.
A knot of discomfort tightened in my stomach. I had alrendy decline Christopher's advances the last twe spoke, yet here he was again, inserting himself into our daily routine.
He'd appeared at my door this morning, saying, "Didn't we agree you think about it? It's been days, I'm guessing you've made u up your mind." His persistence felt suffocating, but with my old secondhand car broken down, I'd reluctantly necepted his help for today.
As the twins disappeared inside, I felt a prickle at the back of my neck-that unmistakable sensation of being watched, I scanned the street until my eyes landed on it: the sblack Bentley I'd noliced yesterday, now parked across the street in a different position.
Or perhaps, this is just another wealthy parent's car, I thought, trying to reassure myself. This is an exclusive private school after all. Luxury cars are common here.

"The children are are safely inside," he said. "Aria madepromise to csee her art exhibition next week." I smiled politely, though my attention remained divided. "Thank you for bringing us, I know you're busy," I said, then added deliberately. "I'm planning to buy a car tomorrow. That way, you won't need to take tout of your schedule to help with the children anymore." Christopher fell silent for a moment, his expression clouding slightly "Have you chosen one already?" "Yes, I've found one within my budget. I'll go see it tomorrow." "Then I'll accompany you," he said, his tone leaving little room for argument.
I hesitated, then nodded. "All right. And when we go... I'll have something important to tell you." This would be my opportunity to formally decline his pursuit, once and for all.
My eyes drifted back to the Bentley, and this tChristopher notice, following my gaze, "Angela," "It's nothing," I replied quickly, forcing my attention back to him. "You should head to the office. Blake Capital needs you." Christopher's eyes narrowed slightly. "Are you sure you're alright? I can drive you to the office." "The fine. It's a short walk from here," I insisted. "We'll talk this afternoon, I'll explain everything then." After a moment's hesitation, he nodded. "Until later, then!" 1/3 Chapter 141: Mr. Night Visited Your School?

Bending down, I tried to peer through the window, shading my eyes against the morning sun's glare. The tint was too dark, revealing nothing but shadowy outlines that might have been my own reflection.
After several attempts, I straightened up, frustrated. Perhaps I was being paranoid-seeing threats where none existed. Still, my instincts rarely ledastray, and something about this vehicle felt wrong. Reluctantly, I turned and beaded toward my office, unaware of the movements inside the car as I walked away. That evening, I stood by my bedroom window, pulling the curtains closed as the twins prepared for bed. Aria was still about her day, particularly excited about a visitor who had cto their classroom.
"Mama, he knew about our videos! He called himself Mr. Night, like from the comments!" 1 froze, curtain still in hand. "Mr. Night visited your school?" chattering "Yes!
