Looking at the invitation, Aleigha was lost in thought.
She didn't even notice that Adrian had come back.
As he approached her and took the invitation card from her hand, a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes.
"It's the Landry family again."
"The Reid family fell apart, and the Landry family made an alliance with Darien. So why did Lennon invite you to his engagement?
"You think this is just an engagement party? Why do I feel that this is a trap?"
Adrian's eyes softened. He picked Aleigha up from the sofa and sat down.
This position was extremely ambiguous.
Aleigha blushed slightly, but she didn't feel unhappy at all. She only reached out and pinched his waist.
"You naughty girl." Adrian affectionately poked the tip of her nose.
"I know what the Landry family wants. Darien didn't get anything out of them after he lost the last war.
"Maybe this invitation has something to do with Darien.
"Should I go or not?"
Aleigha raised her eyebrow and looked at him with interest, "Are you afraid? Come on, you're Adrian! The Landry family and Darien means nothing to you, right?"
"Hahaha, is that a compliment?"
He pinched Aleigha's waist and looked at her with a playful look, his eyes flashed with excitement.
Aleigha trembled slightly. She knew the look was dangerous. She hurriedly said, "Yes, but..."
"There's no 'but'. Sweetie, I want you."
The atmosphere became ambiguous in an instant. Aleigha forced a smile and decided to run away.
But Adrian saw it and hugged her tightly. He laughed and said, "Are you scared? Relax, I won't do anything now.
"I'll save it for our wedding night."
Upon hearing that, Aleigha felt shy and helpless. She let him carry her into the bathroom.
On Sunday, Adrian came home from work in a hurry with a dress.
It was Adrian's favorite style. When Aleigha put it on, she thought it couldn't fit any better.
"You wanna go?" Aleigha stood in front of the mirror with a confident smile on her face.
Adrian nodded. He stood up and hugged her from behind. There was a hint of affection in his voice. "Yes. It's a courtesy."
"I don't want people to think I'm a cold fish."
"Well, but you are a cold fish." Aleigha thought. She did not dare to say it out loud.
The two of them headed for the Landry Residence.
Such a party was common for the upper-classes.
The rich seemed to be keen to prove their nobleness by holding parties.
Lennon's engagement was a big thing. There was gonna be a lot of people coming here.
When Adrian and Aleigha arrived, Lennon and his fiancee were standing outside the door to welcome the guests.
Adrian and Aleigha walked to them hand in hand. They looked like a lovely couple. Adrian was hot, tall and straight.
The way he carried himself was a sign of his inherent dignity.
Although Aleigha was a bit thin, she had the air of a lady. Tonight, she was wearing a pure white fishtail dress.
