Chapter 1239
Why was Jaidyn here?
Aleigha was a bit confused. She glanced at Adrian. As expected, he looked gloomy.
Adrian was looking at the man in a black suit with cold eyes. He seemed to be thinking about something.
What the hell was going on?
Gerald's heart sank. He was sure Jaidyn did not have friendly intentions.
Jaidyn just ruined his perfect plan.
"It's okay if you don't know me. After all, I seldom show up these years. I'm sorry to barge in like this."
Jaidyn stayed calm. There wasn't a trace of displeasure on his face. No one knew why he came here.
He walked through the crowd with great dignity, and stopped in front of Aleigha.
What did he want?
Aleigha stepped back subconsciously, and her waist was held the next second.
It was Adrian. His eyes flashed with gentleness.
With a light smile, he whispered into her ear with a deep, magnetic voice.
"Aleigha, you naughty girl. I just want to eat you up."
What?
Aleigha was speechless. What was wrong with him?
Unexpectedly, Jaidyn suddenly quickened his pace and approached Aleigha.
While she was distracted, he bent over and whispered, "Aleigha, I'll pay you back what I owe you."
"Now? But I can handle this myself." Aleigha was not ready to settle with him just yet.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
What if she needed him for something later?
Without waiting for her reply, Jaidyn got up and looked at the Gerald. "Shall we settle this between you and me?"
He raised his eyebrow and chuckled, but there was no emotion in his eyes.
Jaidyn seemed to be harmless, but in fact he was more ruthless than a wolf.
He was a poisonous snake. The Gates family was really unlucky.
Aleigha no longer had any interest in it. That was probably how this whole thing ended.
It was just a shame she still hadn't figured out who was behind it.
This really pissed her off. She took Adrian's hand and left the party, not caring what would happen next.
After going out of the Gates Residence, Aleigha gave a snort. "I think Jaidyn did it on purpose.
"He's a troublemaker."
Adrian stood beside her. Seeing her angry face, he was kind of amused.
Pulling her into his arms, he said, "Aleigha, sometimes I just don't know what to do with you." "Why? Did I make a mistake?" Aleigha looked up at him confusedly and blinked her eyes.
Her eyes were clear and bright. He couldn't help but be charmed.
He touched her white cheeks, and then deliberately put her closer to him.
"Yes. You turned me on."
Aleigha's face turned red, and she angrily glared at him. "When did you become such a flirt?"
As she spoke, she gently beat his chest in anger.
Adrian grabbed her arm. "Let's get married. We can get engaged first."
Adrian was very serious. There was obvious sincerity in his eyes.
In his eyes, Aleigha was the only one he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.
Get married?
Aleigha's heart missed a beat. She felt as if something was blocking her throat and she could not say a word.
In the past, she loved Adrian and was willing to do anything for him.
Now, even though she still loved
him,

The old Adrian was disgusted with her.
If he hadn't saved her and helped her again and again, she wouldn't have believed him.
Was she dreaming? The man who proposed her was really Adrian?
"Aleigha, don't you want to marry me?" A hint of coldness flashed across Adrian's eyes. He couldn't help but clutch her hand.
"Hiss, I didn't say that!" Aleigha felt the pain and instantly came to her senses.
His eyes, which had been gloomy for a second, suddenly became dazzling.
Adrian was just like a child, and his eyes were like starry sky, flashing with light.
The went back to the villa. Aleigha was still angry about what had happened today. She even wanted to punch Jaidyn.
The next morning. The phone woke Aleigha up while she was still sleeping.
"Aleigha, they dropped the charges." Windy's voice was calm, but with a hint of happiness.
"They are quite efficient." Aleigha was no longer sleepy at all.
Although Jaidyn broke her plan, she felt relieved that the Woods family had dodged the bullet. And she was sure the Gates family was gonna have a hard time.
That made her feel better.
"Efficient? I don't think Jodie is gonna give up. That woman is too greedy. She won't stop targeting us.
"Aleigha, you have to be careful."
After hanging up the phone, Aleigha started thinking. With Jaidyn around, the Gates family wouldn't do anything.
But it didn't mean that Jodie would behave herself. She still had to be careful.
Adrian left very early and there were only two servants at home. Aleigha was ready to go out.
When she was about to go out, she accidentally saw a servant enter her room in a fluster.
It was Adrian's villa, so these servants should be the ones he trusted. She didn't take it to heart.
In the afternoon, when she was in class, her cell phone rang. It was from the villa.
She called it back after class. It was a servant.
Aleigha thought it was a little weird.
These servants wouldn't usually call her for trivial matters.
The servant told her that her room was leaking, so they opened her door.
Aleigha frowned. Shouldn't they ask her if they could enter her room first?
After leaving the school, Aleigha went straight to Adrian's company. Not surprisingly, she met Aubrie again.
Aubrie still looked like a high and mighty princess. She gave Aleigha a lukewarm look.
There was a faint smile on Aubrie s face.
Aleigha looked at her. She wondered why this woman appeared so often in Adrian's company. Wasn't she with Darien now? Could it be she still cared about Adrian? Tsk tsk. What a playgirl!
Adrian was talking to a client. When he heard that Aleigha was here, he pushed everything aside. Even the expression on his face changed from indifferent to gentle.
