Chapter227
Comforted and flattered, Adalynn’s anger barely subsided, but her expression still looked very unpleasant. She immediately made a phone
call.
Just losing her job and being at a dead end was not enough. If someone dared to treat her that way, she would make them regret it deeply and come to her on their knees to beg!
“Buy this restaurant for me in three days!” she ordered angrily on the phone.
After hanging up the phone, she glanced around unintentionally, and her gaze suddenly froze.
Not far away, a man and a woman walked out of the restaurant under the protection of a group of bodyguards.
The man was tall and imposing, while the girl was slender and graceful.
The girl clung to the man’s arm in a coquettish manner, and as the man lowered his brows and bowed his head, a gentle and indulgent aura emanated from him.
Adalynn’s heart skipped a beat–why did that woman look so much like Ophelia?!
However, from her angle, she could only see the other person’s back and not their face.
Suddenly, the girl’s face briefly turned this way. Just as Adalynn was about to take a closer look, a bodyguard over there suddenly blocked her view. By the time she looked again, the two of them had already gotten
into the car.
“Adalynn, what were you looking at?” Bessie asked.
Adalynn furrowed her brows tightly, feeling a bit annoyed, “It’s nothing!”
She was irritated that she hadn’t seen clearly just now, but then she found it amusing. What difference did it make if she saw clearly? Could it really be Ophelia? What a joke!
Look at the level of this restaurant, look at those well–trained bodyguards just now, and then look at that globally limited luxury car that disappeared from sight. Which of these was worthy of Ophelia?
Thinking of Ophelia, her mood worsened even more, and she impatiently asked Bessie, “Have you taken care of the matter I asked you to handle?” Bessie bit her lip and lowered her head, “I could get it tonight…”
Hearing this answer, Adalynn was barely satisfied, and a malicious glint flashed in her eyes.
She could soon take care of Ophelia; she was really a bit impatient!
On the other side, in the car.
Ophelia had already put Adalynn Bessie behind her.
She had eyes only for the man beside her, and her mind was still on the meal they had just had.
Suddenly, she realized a problem-
“Honey, what day was it today?”
How could it be that Winford decided to set the surprise for today?
Chapter27
Winford had been unconsciously playing with the soft little hand in his palm when he heard the question, and his movement paused for a
moment.
He lowered his gaze to meet the girl’s innocent and puzzled look. He remained silent for two seconds, pressed his lips down slightly, and said in a flat tone. “It’s not any special day.”
Ophelia keenly noticed that he seemed a little unhappy because of her question.
She was about to ask further questions when Winford noticed her intention and did not give her a chance. Before she could speak, he picked up the phone next to him first.
The phone had started ringing a long time ago, but Winford showed no intention of answering it and didn’t even glance at his phone as he set it aside.
Until now, he had deliberately avoided her probing questions and picked up his phone.
Ophelia furrowed her brow in confusion.
Seeing how concerned Winford was, it must have been a very important day, but she just couldn’t remember why.
