The Return of the War Legate by Celestial Clouds novel Chapter 31

“I can’t be bothered with you.” Adaline stamped her foot in anger.

Meanwhile, some voices were heard. “Hmm? Ada, isn’t this your deadbeat brother? Isn’t he the guy who disguised as legate in the city yesterday?”

“Yikes, it really is him. What brings him here?”

“Ada, why did you let your brother tag along?”

A few women said to Adaline in succession after walking out of the cosmetics shop next to her.

In these people’s opinion, it was absolutely embarrassing for Adrian to disguise himself as the legate because he was still a deadbeat no matter how hard he tried to pass off as legate.

Adaline’s expression turned extremely unpleasant. These were her friends and they were all heiresses of influential families in Southrive.

She was utterly humiliated by Adrian’s presence.

Adaline said, “I didn’t allow him to tag along. He’s the one who insisted on coming with me.”

The women burst out laughing.

Meanwhile, a woman named Stella York made her way to Adrian and said, “That’s so shameless of you! You’re tagging along on purpose because you know we’re going to dine in a five-star hotel today, right?”

Stella was the leader of the day, and her boyfriend, Kevan, was from the influential Zahn family in Southrive. Both of them had planned and organized today’s gathering.

“She’s right, she’s right. You tagged along on purpose for sure,” the few other women chimed in.

Adaline felt utterly embarrassed, yet Adrian still stood there. She was so infuriated that she was rendered speechless.

Meanwhile, a few Mercedes Benz, BMWs, Audis, and other luxury cars pulled up by the curb. The people inside waved at Stella and the others.

“Kev and the others are here. Let’s go!” Stella said upon seeing the cars.
