After the Affair Falling into a Billionaire's Arms novel Chapter 568

Chapter 568

Louisa heard this and thought it made sense,

She looked at Sadie. “You’re a lawyer through and through. This strategy of yours-offense and defense-is really solid.”

Flora laughed too. Of course. Who’s our Sadie? A top lawyer. Anyway, Louisa, don’t worry. Mrs. Tudor invited me, Sadie, and Rach right? With us watching your back, you definitely won’t be taken advantage of. If anyone dares bully you, I’ll beat them up–I don’

who they are.”

Sadie said, “Exactly.”

Their unwavering support really moved Louisa.

She put her arms around both friends’ shoulders. “Having you two is such a blessing.”

Sadie said, “Anyway, the worst-case scenario is just that Adeline won’t accept your identity. If she’s like Hazel and looks down on you because of your background, that’s the Tudor family’s loss, not yours. They’ll regret it big time.”

Louisa nodded repeatedly. “You’re right.”

Discussion over, they went back inside for breakfast.

After finishing a work call in his room, Julian came out too.

He glanced at Sadie and Flora, who were focused on their food, and asked politely, “Ms. Watson, you’re here so early. Is there something

you need?”

The ignored Flora fell silent.

Why only ask Sadie and not her? Was she invisible?

Sadie sipped her porridge and said, “I heard your mom invited us to pray for blessings at the church together. We’re here to sign up. Bluey, Goldie, and Pinkie are all going. After all, if there’s a chance to be your mother’s lifesaver, how could we pass up such a great opportunity? Besides, I helped too. The Tudor family is so wealthy-giving me a few thousand isn’t too much to ask, right?”

Not too much at all fullan heard the heavy sarcasm in her words but didn’t get angry. He even smiled.

After breakfast, Sadie and Flord left.

Louisa and Julian went to the office together.

Today was Louisa’s first day as the new CPO William personally issued the personnel directive, and Louisa had to complete the handover

process.

Then there was Julian’s executive meeting.

Everyone was run off their feet all morning.

When the meeting finally ended, Louisa felt completely drained. She sat in her office to rest and think about what to have for lun

Julian, meanwhile, received a call from his mother.

Adeline couldn’t wait to ask about yesterday-whether Julian had caught up with her, whether Louisa would attend the Tudor family

activity this weekend.

Julian said, “This weekend, all four girls you invited will be there.”

Only then did Adeline relax, her mood excellent.

Justin crouched beside her, smiling slyly. “Mom, you seem to really like Verde.”

Adeline said, “Of course. Verde is smart, beautiful, wise, and most importantly, kind-hearted. That’s the rarest quality.”

Justin gently reminded her, “But you haven’t paid any attention to Verde’s family background. What if she’s poor?”

Adeline said, “So what if she’s poor? The Tudor family doesn’t lack money. As long as her background is clean, that’s fine.”

She didn’t have that many requirements.

Justin pressed his lips together and laughed.

Adeline found him odd. Her eyes grew suspicious. “Justin, what are you laughing at?”

“Nothing, nothing. I’m not laughing at anything. I think it’s great. Justin ran off

Adeline still felt something was off. That kid seemed to know something.

She was about to press him when Alicia said, “Mom, the address Grandma gave for this church is way too remote. How did she even find

it? So strange.”

She looked at the navigation on her phone. Churches were everywhere-there was no need to go up a mountaiN.

And even if it was on a mountain, it should be halfway up with a road so you could drive directly there.

But this church not only couldn’t be reached by car-you had to take a cable car, and after the cable car, there was still a hiking section.

Even stranger, there wasn’t even a picture of this church online,

That made no sense,

Adeline sighed. Forget it. Your grandmother means well. She’s been worried sick about me since the accident. She said this chur

Mothers in law and daughters-in-law had been natural enemies since ancient times. Adeline had been married to William for thi and the secret to peaceful coexistence was: whatever mother-in-law says goes. As long as it didn’t violate her principles, she gene

didn’t argue.

They didn’t live together anyway,

Besides, aside from being a bit overbearing and sharp, her mother-in-law treated her pretty well.

Seeing this, Alicia didn’t say more.

The two days passed quickly,

Soon it was the weekend.

Friday evening, during dinner, George sent Louisa another message: [Leaving at 9 a.m. tomorrow. I’ll wait for you in the underground

garage.

Louisa didn’t want to deal with him, but thinking he might actually wait in the garage and block her from leaving-what then?

George was unreasonable. She couldn’t reason with him.

After thinking, she replied: [I’m busy this weekend. Let’s do next week.]

George didn’t reply.

Louisa had no idea if he’d actually listened or not.

Would this jerk stubbornly go through with it anyway?

Would he really block her in the parking garage?

Little did she know, George was currently at the Capulet Villa.

In the living room

George sat on the sofa, staring at Louisa’s reply. His mind was in turmoil. Why is she still dragging this out? Has she changed her mind? Does she not want to get ild ut the baby anymore?”

His expression darkened.

Hazel didn’t notice his mood-or rather, she was used to his constant displeasure.

She held two photos and handed them to him. “George, look. These two are both from wealthy families. Which one do you like? Co

them.”

George didn’t even look. He slapped both photos to the floor, his face cold as a blade. “Not meeting them! Not a single oner
