Adrian nodded and got into the car with Samantha,
He was about to head to Bailar with her, but then Rue called and said something. Samantha nodded and said, “Okay, Mother. I’ll have Adrian head over.”
“What’s going on, Sam?” Adrian asked after hearing what she said.
After she hung up, she replied, “Ada is meeting up with her friends, but Mother is worried. She’s asking you to keep an eye on her and ensure Ada doesn’t get drunk. Hurry.”
She patted his shoulder.
Adaline was going to attend university soon, so it was normal for her to attend gatherings.
Rue called because she was worried that some creeps would get Adaline drunk and proceed with their heinous plans. She was worried about Adaline, so she called Samantha and asked Adrian to watch her. “Why would I go to her gathering? Mother shouldn’t worry.” Adrian did not overthink it because he felt normal to meet up with friends.
“It’s not as simple as that,” Samantha said, “There are men with loose morals in this city, and since Ada is pretty, Mother is just worried that people might target her. It’s not too much to ask you to watch over her. Now, go. She’s at Swallow Avenue.”
Samantha hurried him. Adrian nodded because she was right. Gatherings now were different from back in the day. If something happened, it would scar Adaline for life.
“Okay, I’ll be heading there then. What about you?” Adrian asked.
“I’m going to the office. You can take my car. I’ll take a cab there.” She handed him the keys. Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
“No, I’ll get a cab,” he replied.
Samantha did not argue the matter and waved for him to hurry along.
Adrian flagged down a cab while Samantha drove toward the office.
Adaline lingered on Swallow Avenue while her brother got there quickly. He saw her from afar, standing there as if she was waiting for someone.
She was in a short skirt and looked beautiful. She had a figure as good as Samantha’s. Even though she looked pretty, she was covered up because she was not a racy person.
Adrian walked over and called out, “Ada!”
Adaline was waiting for her friends and was surprised to see her brother. She frowned and looked annoyed. “Why are you here?”
“Mother is worried about you, so she asked me to keep an eye on you.” Adrian was honest about it.
Adaline immediately felt agitated when she heard this,
How could she bring her brother to attend a gathering with her friends? Since Adrian was famous throughout Swallowston for being a useless man, her friend would laugh at her.
Adaline said, “Why do you have to follow me around? I’m just meeting up with my friends. There’s nothing to worry about.”
Adrian shrugged. He did not think like that before this, but Rue’s concerns were not unfounded.
Adaline was a proud woman. She shoved him and said, “Leave me alone!”
“Either you walk with me, or I follow you around,” he said.
“Ugh…” Adaline was so furious she almost burst out in tears. If her friends knew that her brother was following her around, she would be the joke of the party.
