Auteur: Star Pomelo
"That's Pierce Whetman, the scion of the Whetman family," Hank muttered into Tyler's ear. "He's good friends with Mr. Hawke. In fact, he's the one who invited Mr. Hawke here for some fun."

Meanwhile, Pierce looked at Adrian, a brow already raised. His tone carried a familiar teasing lilt.

"Who could be the one checking up on you at this time? I wonder who's the lucky lady that constantly occupies your mind during the gathering."

The scions hanging around Adrian had already perked up by then.

  • You Wed Your Past; I Wed My Future   Chapter 580

    Every time Stephanie visited Daphne's grave, she always had so much to say. She brought up a ton of stories about her daily life too.Once she got it all out, she looked at Daphne's portrait and murmured, "I don't know if this counts as a secret, Mom, but… I really love Adrian."Her ears turned pink. She felt like a little girl confiding in her mother.Adrian had been standing there the whole time, waiting. He didn't look the least bit impatient. He wasn't scrolling on his phone or doing anything else, either. He simply watched with a gentle expression as Stephanie spoke to Daphne.He watched the way she oscillated between smiling and becoming teary-eyed. Even though it wasn't clear from his face, his heart ached painfully for her.At last, he saw her waving him over. He immediately went back to her side and took her hand."We'll be leaving now, Mom," Stephanie said with a smile. "From now on, whenever we have time, we'll come visit you often."Adrian also nodded solemnly to the

    The cold headstone couldn't answer Stephanie's questions. She felt the familiar sting in her nose again, but she forced herself to hold her tears back."I can't cry anymore. I brought your future son-in-law to see you today. I wanted to have a proper talk with you, so I can't keep crying like this. Don't laugh at me for being such a crybaby."After dabbing her eyes with a tissue from Adrian, she continued, "Grandma and Dad are both in great health, so don't worry. They miss you a lot. And the company is doing really well. It's growing steadily. As for me…"She paused, feeling a bit shy. "I'm doing well too. I'm happy with Adrian. You don't need to worry about me, Mom."Adrian glanced at Stephanie with a smile before saying earnestly to Daphne's headstone, "Rest assured, Mrs. Ford. I will definitely stay by Stephanie's side and take good care of her. I'll cherish her and protect her for the rest of our lives."A soft breeze rustled through the cemetery again. Though it was always b

    The three men pretended to chat by the side of the road, but they kept sneaking glances at Stephanie, scratching their heads and blushing furiously.Scoffing, Adrian quietly positioned himself in front of Stephanie to block her from their view. He shot them an icy look that made them break out in a cold sweat. Panicked, they bolted.Stephanie, having just finished chatting with her acquaintance, noticed Adrian's unusual behavior and caught sight of the three fleeing figures."What's wrong?" she asked."They were staring at you," Adrian said with a frown.Stephanie stared after the three men for a moment before recalling something."Could it be those three?""Hm?""I just remembered that when I was little, there were three rebellious young boys who were about three years older than me. They'd been getting into all kinds of trouble ever since they were kids. Whenever I came here to stay with my mom, I hated running into them the most."She remembered the first time she came here

    Bosco didn't dare raise his eyes, but he could feel it. Somehow, he sensed an icy gaze resting on him, sending chills down his spine.Diane went on, "After that, I gave Bosco a proper scolding for thinking about marriage at such a young age. Did he even ask if the girl wanted to marry him? Well, that finally shut him up!"Oh, by the way, he got married a couple of years ago. I even have a grandson now! But unfortunately, my daughter-in-law brought him back to her parents' place today, so you won't get to see him."Once Diane said that, Bosco felt the icy gaze seemingly disappear. He secretly exhaled in relief. This entire meal had been a nerve-wracking experience for him.Under the table, Stephanie couldn't help but give Adrian a soft kick. What was up with him, getting jealous over an insignificant remark that was made years ago?She could see how terrified Bosco got because of him.Adrian pretended not to notice and quietly served her another chicken wing.After the meal, Step

    "Oh, no, you don't need to do anything. Just stay in your seat!" Diane exclaimed.She practically forced Adrian and Stephanie into their seats, refusing to let them help.After serving them some juice, she glanced at the time and grumbled, "Why isn't that brat home yet…"She had barely finished when the front door swung open, and a young man's voice rang out. "Mom, I'm home."Adrian and Stephanie stood and turned to look.Bosco Upton, a young man with a buzz cut, came in looking rather sprightly. But when he spotted Adrian and Stephanie, he froze for a moment before looking pretty intimidated."Y-You two…" he stammered, not knowing what to say.Diane didn't spend much time on the internet, but Bosco practically lived online. Of course he knew who Adrian and Stephanie were.He had even met Stephanie as a child, but back then, he hadn't thought much of it. Now that he was older and knew more, his perspective had completely changed.She was the Ford family heiress, and standing b

    Once Stephanie agreed to dinner, Diane happily went home to start cooking.Stephanie and Adrian exchanged a smile.Once inside the house, Stephanie looked around at the familiar furnishings, and a wave of longing swept through her heart.The cleaners only made sure the house was tidy. They didn't move anything. Everything was in the same spot it had been back then.She remembered the smiling Daphne telling her, "When I was a little girl, I loved practicing my dancing in this part of the house. This is where I did my schoolwork, and when I was feeling lazy, I liked to hide in this corner and play with my toys…"Even after all these years, she could vividly recall Daphne's voice and expressions when she said those words.Suddenly, Stephanie found herself enveloped in a wide, warm embrace. She knew Adrian had noticed her sadness and was holding her to comfort her."It's okay. I'm fine," Stephanie said softly as she rubbed her eyes. "You know, at times like this, it's natural to fee

    If Stephanie had left a little later last night, maybe…But fate was just that cruel to make them miss each other.Adrian was a jerk too! He had already gone to search for her, yet he refused to let Wynette tell her about it!If Wynette never told her anything, wouldn't that mean she'd be oblivio

    Wynette thought for a moment before suggesting, "Why don't you head home and rest, Stephanie?"Stephanie raised her head to see the concern in Wynette's eyes. She smiled in return."I'm fine. Besides, I'm already here, aren't I? Why should I go home this early?"She took a deep breath before forc

    "Hey, you're so mean! Even if I don't do a good job, you should at least reward me for my efforts!" Wynette whined.…Adrian came all the way to the Sutton residence, only for his car to be barred from entry to the compound itself.The Suttons' bodyguards stood by the car window. One of them said

    Naturally, Stephanie wouldn't turn the manager's good intentions down, so she accepted it with a smile."Thank you for your thoughtful gift.""You're being far too courteous, Ms. Ford."After saying goodbye to Stephanie, the manager turned to leave.Stephanie headed to the lounge next door with
