The Return of the War Legate by Celestial Clouds novel Chapter 58

The four million and five hundred thousand dollars from Mandy was sufficient for Bailar to continue its development.

Meanwhile, Adrian followed Samantha wherever she went over the next two days. He would even wait for her while she was in business discussions.

At first, Samantha was slightly weirded out that he followed her everywhere, but after two days, she got used to his presence. In fact, his presence made her feel a little safer.

In the past, she would always be afraid that the people she met up with for business discussions would have malicious intentions toward her. However, that changed now that Adrian was around.

One evening after Samantha was done with a very exhausting day, she received a phone call when she was about to pack up and leave the office. She answered and found that it was from Cassey.

“Sam, Mario and I will be getting married two days from now. I’ll forego the part where I send you an official invitation, but make sure you arrive early that morning. You’re going to be one of my bridesmaids.”

Samantha frowned when she heard this. In truth, she did not wish to have any sort of interaction with Cassey, but Adrian had agreed to attend Cassey’s wedding on her behalf.

She helplessly said, “Sure thing, Cass. I’ll be sure to be there.”

“See you there. Don’t skip out on me. All of our friends will be waiting for you.”

Cassey hung up after that, and Samantha let out a sigh.

Next to her, Adrian asked with a confused expression, “What’s the matter?”

Samantha shot a glance at him. “This is all your fault. Why did you have to agree to go to Cassey’s wedding? She’s clearly trying to humiliate me.”

Adrian instantly recalled what had happened a while back.
