Chapter 193 Curtis's Surprising Revelation
Logan stared directly at Adeline and said, "There are also rumors that you sent yourself to Curtis's bed."
Adeline looked displeased, and as soon as her lips parted, she heard the sound of old Mrs. Riley slamming the table.
"Those are nonsense! If I find out who spread these rumors, I'll tear their mouth apart!"
"Yes, Grandma," Logan calmly reassured, then looked at Adeline with conviction and said, "I don't believe a single word of it."
Alston didn't say a word.
Yetta remained silent too.
They thought to themselves, "This silly child..."
Adeline took a deep breath, wanting to say something to Logan, but old Mrs. Riley spoke first.
"Adeline, go upstairs and rest."
As she was saying that, she didn't allow any objections and called a maid to escort Adeline to her guest room.
Seeing that, Adeline didn't want to embarrass old Mrs. Riley and nodded. Then, she left with the maid.
As soon as Adeline left, old Mrs. Riley turned her sharp gaze toward Logan and said, "You're a grown man, don't you know what to say in different situations?"
Logan tried to explain, "Grandma, I just wanted to let everyone know that I trust Adeline. My words were meant for certain people to hear!"
Old Mrs. Riley furrowed her brows and instinctively glanced at Oliva and Viola, but in the end, she scolded Logan.
"That still depends on the situation!"
Alston quickly stood up to soothe old Mrs. Riley by saying, "Mom, don't get upset. You just got back."
Curtis also wanted to say something to calm old Mrs. Riley down, but as soon as his lips moved, old Mrs. Riley pointed at him.
"Don't say a word!"
Curtis was speechless.
"I can't even stand seeing you!"
Curtis didn't know what to say.
"What makes you think that you can comment about it as yourself is single? Do you have a girlfriend? You're still not in a hurry to settle down at your age! Look! Even your nephew is getting married soon. Looking at you makes me even angrier!"
Although he couldn't stand up and in the wheelchair, he exuded a sense of elegance and refinement, just like a clear and tranquil breeze under the bright moonlight on that day.
Adeline's heart fluttered as she looked at him.
How could someone who always appeared so aloof suddenly become uncontrollable when seeing the black silk stockings?
Thinking about those scenes, Adeline's cheeks blushed. Unfortunately, he caught her looking at him. His lips curved slightly as if he could see through everything, and that startled Adeline, causing her to quickly avert her gaze.
Old Mrs. Riley followed Adeline's gaze and scolded Cutis with a stern look, "Don't scare Adeline."
They got into a spacious RV and arrived at the Prodiff Theater.
Old Mrs. Riley seemed to remember something. She turned to Curtis and said, "Your presence today is just right. I have a few old friends here. I'll have them introduce you to some potential partners. So, what kind of girl do you like?"
Curtis looked straight at Adeline, his eyes tinged with a gentle smile, and he spoke softly.
"I like... someone like Adeline."
His voice was so mesmerizing that it sent shivers down one's spine.
Adeline's heart fluttered and her fingers curled up nervously.
