Mr. Williams Wants His Ex-Wife Back novel Chapter 177

"Adam..."

"Enjoy your Christmas eve dinner. Have a good rest."

After that, Adam hung up the phone. Then, he walked to the crowded sidewalk.

The snowflakes suddenly began to fall piece by piece. They were on the heads of all the pedestrians, on their shoulders, and their footsteps sped up one after another. Only Adam, tall and straight like a jade, was walking in the stream of people, step by step. It seemed that he was going to leave all his footprints on roads that Rebecca had walked through.

It was still snowing.

Rebecca, Justin, and two other classmates returned to the student apartment together and immediately began to prepare their dinner. Just as Rebecca was busy in the kitchen, her phone rang.

She wiped her hands and went to her phone.

It was a call from the Williams family mansion.

Nominally, she was still the daughter-in-law of the Williams Family. Since it was the new year, she needed to extend her greetings to Arthur and Julia anyway.

Justin stood by Rebecca and looked at her absent-mindedly holding the phone. Then he glanced at the screen of her phone and saw "Williams Family mansion." He didn't say anything and continued to help wash the dishes.

"Hello." Walking to the balcony, Rebecca answered the phone.

"Merry Christmas!" Arthur's loving voice came, mixed with the exciting voice in the TV show and the cracking sound of fireworks.

Because of the jet lag, it was six hours faster at home than in Paris. Now it was Christmas at home.

"Happy Christmas, dad. I wish you and mom good health and everything goes well in the new year." Out of politeness, Rebecca said in a crisp voice.

"Well, you too." On the other side, Arthur nodded kindly and said, "Adam flew to Paris early in the morning and said he wanted to spend Christmas eve with you. How was it? Are you together now?"

Adam came to Paris to spend Christmas eve with her?

Rebecca was shocked for a moment, then immediately smiled and said, "Well, he has called me, but something delayed him. He will be here soon."

Even until now, Rebecca still habitually lied and acted in front of Arthur.

"That would be great!" Arthur nodded repeatedly. "Then you two have a good Christmas eve. Make Adam stay in Paris for a few more days with you."

"Okay, thank you, dad." Rebecca nodded, her voice calm, without any abnormality.

After a few more words, Arthur got to know about her studies in Paris and then hung up.

Hanging up, with the phone in her hand, Rebecca stood on the balcony. The cold wind blew as the snow was drifting. She was wearing a thin cashmere sweater, but she did not feel cold.

Did Adam really come to Paris to spend Christmas eve with her?

However, not only did she not see Adam, but she also did not receive a call from him.

Suddenly, Rebecca thought of the grave and strange feeling that had been lingering on her since she rushed out of the teaching building after class today.

Could it be Adam?

No.

Definitely not!

"Why are you in a daze here? It is cold out." At this moment, Justin walked over and put his arms around her shoulders, blocking the cold wind for her.

Rebecca came back to her senses and smiled. She looked at him and said, "I am wondering if I should call home."
