The Return of the War Legate by Celestial Clouds novel Chapter 46

Mario laughed. “He really is enjoying his life. Not only is he a deadbeat, but he seems really proud of it too. Hah!

“It’s a shame that Sam chose to marry such a loser despite her pretty looks.”

Samantha remained speechless, not knowing what to say.

Cassey then continued, “It’s decided then. Wait for my call, Sam. I’m expecting you to attend my wedding. No excuses!”

The Mercedes Benz sped off, taking with it whatever good mood Samantha had earlier. She was so speechless that all she could think to say at that moment was, “What were you thinking, Adrian? It’s obvious she’s trying to humiliate me, so why would you agree to attend her wedding?”

‘I know very well what Cassey and her friends are like,’ she added silently.

“You have no idea what kind of criticisms they’re going to hurl at you if you don’t go. So, you have to come as well.”

“And you think they won't if I do?”

“Well, they’ll hurl it at your face if you do.”

Samantha was confused. ‘What in the world is he thinking?’

“I doubt that will happen.”

Adrian then said, “They’re humiliating you because you aren’t dressed well. Do you think they’d still do it if you buy some nice clothes and change your style?

“People like them just want to insult you for fun. Plus, the insults will grow to become even worse if you don’t go. Are you really planning on avoiding them forever while they scorn you?

“Remember, you’re a human being with dignity.”

Samantha heaved a sigh when she heard all this.

‘Adrian’s right. I’ll have to keep avoiding them for the rest of my life if I don’t go. Worse, they’d talk about me behind my back.

‘I’m about to receive twenty thousand dollars, so I suppose I’d be less humiliated if I got myself some nice clothes and a purse.’
