You Belong To Me (2)

Adrienne was feeling suffocated inside the banquet hall and had chosen to step out in the meantime. She had asked Hunter to send Uncle Shark off after the latter succeeded in collecting his money from her father. From what she heard, Camilla and Cayden were asked to stay in their rooms by Old Master Jiang, forbidding them from joining the rest of the event.

She sent Hunter a quick message informing him that he would find her in her mother's garden. There were no guests around when Adrienne removed her high heels, groaning a little as she felt her foot find relief after being freed.

The night was still young and the guests weren't expected to leave anytime soon. However, Adrienne felt like she had socialized enough for the day and wanted to retire to the comfort of her bed soon. The night breeze blew softly and Adrienne shut her eyes to appreciate its comforting coolness. This was why she didn't notice someone watching her intently from afar.
