Chapter 320 Is This Your Husband?
Led by the butler, Kate and Edward proceeded to the living
room.
Kate wore a composed expression but discreetly took in her surroundings, rapidly committing the layout to memory. Edward, following suit, silently let his gaze linger on the butler for a few
moments.
Their unexpected arrival and outright purchase of a mansion in Sagrado’s prestigious neighbourhood had sparked curiosity among the local elite about who they might be.
Typically, newcomers to this area would engage in social events to blend in, which helped them gain easy access after the bodyguard’s announcement.
However…
Kate, particularly, with her exotic features and fluency in Sagrado’s language, drew interest.
Shortly after, led by the butler, Kate and Edward entered the villa’s reception room. There, a woman wearing a long light yellow dress was already present, looking at Kate and Edward with curiosity.
Confidently, Kate stepped forward, placed the gift on the coffee table, and introduced herself, “Hello, I’m Viola.”
The woman glanced at the gifts with evident interest.
She appeared young, in her early twenties, and exuded a noble, elegant demeanour with her delicate makeup. Standing up to shake hands with Kate, she introduced herself as “Erica.”
After a brief handshake, Erica sat back down, her attention fixed on Kate with curiosity. “Ms. Viola, are you also from Sagrado? To which family do you belong, and why have I never seen you before?”
Kate responded with a calm, assured smile, “I am an orphan, raised without parents, and have been living abroad for the last few years to make a living.”
Erica then turned her attention to Edward, commenting, “He looks like someone from Haldoria.”
Her
eyes
rested on Edward’s face for a moment, adding, “Not bad.”
Although Erica’s critical gaze made Edward uncomfortable, he kept his poise, standing next to Kate like a supportive aide.
Kate glanced at Edward and said with a smile, “He’s a very skilled man from Haldoria.”
Erica snorted, “How skilled can people from Haldoria really be? They might look good, but they don’t match up to us from Sagrado in terms of abilities.”

Kate’s expression subtly chilled, her smile fading slightly, but before she could reply, the door next to the living room opened. Her attention immediately shifted, and she froze when she saw who was entering!
Erica also looked towards the door and hurried over, worriedly asking, “Darling, are you okay? Why did you come here by yourself?”
The doorway revealed a young man in a wheelchair, dressed casually with a pale face and sharp, cold eyes.
Kate’s emotions surged at the sight of him, but she quickly regained her composure with a discreet pinch to her thigh and asked in surprise, “Is this your husband?”
The question unsettled Kate internally.
When the man heard her voice, he looked her way, his eyes icy. After a brief pause on her face, he looked away indifferently,
As Erica reached for his hand, he slightly backed away in his wheelchair, giving her a cold look before sharply saying, “No.”
