Chapter249
Adalynn’s heart skipped a beat. “The people from Sunset Vista?”
That was a woman. How could there be a woman in Sunset Vista? Wasn’t it said that Mr. Winford was not fond of women?
Suddenly, she thought of a rumor that had been circulating recently in Kingchester, saying that Mr. Winford had a girl by his side, who was cherished by him like a precious gem. At that moment, her heart sank.
Could it be that the rumors were actually true?!
No, it wouldn’t, and the doorman didn’t say that either; it might have just been a maid from Sunset Vista.
Comforting herself in this way, Adalynn called Cullen.
“Cullen, I was at the entrance of Sunset Vista, and I was stopped by someone. You quickly called Uncle Winford and asked him to give the order to let me in.”
Over there, Cullen leaned on his crutch, and upon hearing this, his expression changed. “Where did you say you were?”
“I was at the entrance of Sunset Vista! Didn’t I tell you before that I wanted to visit Uncle Winford? I happened to hear that Uncle Winford had returned to Sunset Vista, so I came over.”
“However, the doorman didn’t recognize me and didn’t believe my words, so you quickly called Uncle Winford.”
“Besides, I noticed that the guard should have been dismissed.” She deliberately said this loudly in front of the security guard, “I can overlook
the fact that he doesn’t recognize me, but I already stated my identity, and he still didn’t bother to verify it. Someone like him cannot be allowed to stay at Sunset Vista!”
The doorman listened to these words and finally understood where Adalynn’s confidence came from..
“Cullen?”
If it was that nephew, then Mr. Winford had already shown mercy by not killing him. This Ms. Estrada actually dared to use his name to make a fuss: did she think she was living too long?
The guard looked at Adalynn with a somewhat difficult expression.
Adalynn, however, did not notice that she was pouting and acting cute with Cullen, urging him to call Winford.
Cullen’s expression changed repeatedly. He called Mr. Winford? He even acted like the owner, wanting to dismiss the guard at Sunset Vista?
How could Ms. Estrada have been so foolish?!
Not to mention that the statement “Mr. Winford’s most favored nephew” was false to begin with, even if it were true, could Mr. Winford tolerate others running wild on his territory? Where did Adalynn get her confidence from?
“Come back quickly!” he said, his voice tense as he tried to suppress his
urgency.
His engagement to Adalynn was obtained through lies. The Estrada family believed that he was favored by Mr. Winford, which is why they unhesitatingly arranged for their daughter to be engaged to him.
But only his family knew that what Mr. Winford cared about the most, his nephew, was nothing but a lic!
Even if it were possible, Mr. Winford most wanted to kill him!
He was truly afraid that this lie would be exposed and that he would lose his fiancee, which would be a significant blow to the family business.
On the other side, Ophelia had entered the door and seen Winford.
“Honey!”
She rushed into the man’s arms as soon as they met.
Winford noticed that something was off with her emotions and lowered his eyes, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” Ophelia shook her head.
She just felt a bit uncomfortable in her heart.
Seeing Dean Jiang suddenly reminded her of things from her past life.
