Chapter 58


    The four million and five hundred thousand dors from Mandy was sufficient for Bar to continue its


    development.


    Meanwhile, Adrian followed Samantha wherever she went over the next two days. He would even wait


    for her while she was in


    business discussions.


    At first, Samantha was slightly weirded out that he followed her everywhere, but after two days, she got


    used to his presence. In fact, his presence made her feel a little safer.


    In the past, she would always be afraid that the people she met up with for business discussions would


    have malicious intentions toward her. However, that changed now that Adrian was around.


    One evening after Samantha was done with a very exhausting day, she received a phone call when


    she was about to pack up and leave the office. She answered and found that it was from Cassey.


    “Sam, Mario and I will be getting married two days from now. I’ll forego the part where I send you an


    official invitation, but make sure you arrive early that morning. You’re going to be one of my


    bridesmaids.”


    Samantha frowned when she heard this. In truth, she did not wish to have any sort of interaction with


    Cassey, but Adrian had agreed to attend Cassey’s wedding on her behalf.


    She helplessly said, “Sure thing, Cass. I’ll be sure to be there.”


    “See you


    there. Don’t skip out on me. All of our friends will be waiting for you.”


    Cassey hung up after that, and Samantha let out a sigh.


    Next to her, Adrian asked with a confused expression, “What’s the matter?”


    Samantha shot a nce at him. “This is all your fault. Why did you have to agree to go to Cassey’s


    wedding? She’s clearly trying to humiliate me.”


    Adrian instantly recalled what had happened a while back.


    ‘Oh, that’s right. Cassey did indeed invite Sam to her and Mario’s wedding.‘


    Since it was not going to be a big issue, he smiled and said, “I’ll be there with you, so there’s nothing


    for you to worry about. Wear that ne I bought you and I’m sure you’ll be free from any sort of


    humiliation.”


    “Are you talking about the fake Heart of the Sea?” Samantha rolled her eyes, pulling out the ne


    from around her ne. “I’m not wearing this to the wedding. It’s a fake after all.”


    Samantha looked like she was about to rip the ne off, but Adrian quickly stopped her. “Don’t do


    that. I went through a lot of trouble to get it for you, so please just leave it on.”


    Feeling helpless, Samantha chose not to say anything more.


    It was already night by the time they arrived home, and Rue already had dinner prepared for them.


    Rue was talking to Adaline, who was packing her luggage. She looked like she was about to leave


    home.


    “Where’s Ada going, Mother?” Adrian asked as he looked at his little sister.


    “Are sses starting already?” Samantha asked too.


    Rue nodded. “Your sister’s about to start sses. She has to get to the campus and report in by


    tomorrow. Since it’ll be rather inconvenient for her to travel between ces, I told her to stay on


    campus instead.”


    Meanwhile, Adaline lips were pursed. She turned to look at Samantha and said, “Honesty, I don’t want


    to stay there. The living conditions there are horrid. Plus, I might end up bing theughing stock.”


    -a business that


    Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Adaline knew that everyone in Swallowston knew about Henry and Adrian. Henry had passed down


    Paraiso he had single–handedly built front he ground up–to Adrian. However, Adrian almost


    immediately lost thepany to


    someone else, earning him the title of Swallowston’s deadbeat.


    Adaline knew that others at the university wouldugh at her. She just did not know how many would


    gang up on her.
