Chen Yifan's expression shifted to frustrated resignation. He stared at both Samuel and Heena for a long moment—clearly biting back something cutting—before finally spitting out, "I have urgent matters to attend to. Good day."
With that, he spun on his heel and marched away, his servant scurrying after him.
Floating between Heena and Samuel, the System stared at the pair with wide-eyed amazement.
Heena caught the look. *What? Was it lost in admiration of her beauty or something?*
The System shook its fuzzy head. *No, Host. It's just that, for a fleeting moment, you and your husband looked exactly like a devious, villainous couple working in perfect coordination to torment someone.*
Heena mentally glared at the floating fluffball, fighting the urge to slap it out of the air. *Evil? Fine, maybe she leaned a little evil when provoked. But Samuel? He didn't even fit the category! He was the most straightforward, annoyingly principled person in this entire household.*
