Chapter 1111
Wearing the light blue strapless steep dress which set her body off to perfect slim, Aleigha looked graceful and elegant. Her skin was fair and tender. In the maid's words, it was white as snow. And her neck was as soft as the swan.
As she moved, her sexy collarbone stood out, below was her loomed cleavage.
There were several pink flowers decorated on her dress, which looked like real flowers scattered on it.
Her hair was tied up high, and only two wisps of curly hair were left by her ears. There were gems on her bun which was shedding lights.
In this dressing style, her long legs and slim waist were all pretty to show off.
Without the makeup, she looked clean. With the makeup, she seemed to be slightly more mature and sexier.
Adrian was speechless but stared at her. Aleigha somehow lost her confidence in his eyes. "Am I ugly?" "Let's go." He turned around and left, but his heart was jumping fast.
Nobody else would know how he felt to see dressed up Aleigha at the first sight. He didn't expect she would be so beautiful.
Aleigha was confused with his reaction, not knowing if he liked or disliked her look. She caught him up.
The car they took parked in the courtyard. It was only one car, in Aleigha's memory, Adrian hated others sharing rides with him.
"Well, no car for me, then I'll take the front seat." She thought as she didn't dare to sit beside him.
However, when Aleigha was about to open the front door, Adrian opened the rear door for her. "How dare you ignore me!" Adrian cursed in his heart.
"Come here!" Adrian shouted. He was even wondering if there would be a spy as cold as her who always kept him so far away.
She was remote all the time not just taking a car but also when they were eating.
She opened the door, looking at Adrian with confusion caused by his shouting.
"I won't say it again!" Seeing the innocent look on her face, Adrian gritted his teeth, holding himself from going crazy.
"Ahem, Miss, the young master wants you to sit with him." The driver could not help saying.
He worked for Adrian for many years, and he had never seen his young master opened the car door for any woman. Aleigha was the first one to receive this service, however, she was so disdainful. "You don't like taking a ride with others, don't you? Why do you want me to sit with you?" Aleigha asked him.
"Why are you so clear about my habits?" Adrian was suspicious again.
"You have mysophobia. Everyone knows that." Aleigha was a little stunned to be questioned, yet she still sat in the front.
Adrian got into the car angrily. None of them spoke along the way.
Until they were almost arriving, Adrian broke the silence. "Aren't you curious about where we are going?"
It was familiar scenery outside the window, Aleigha had confirmed that it was the party she assumed, she was certainly not curious.
Hearing Adrian asked, she pretended to be interested. "Where are we going?"
"Woman, do you know that you're bad at acting?" Adrian looked at her and asked. It was clear that she already knew their destination, that was why no curiosity in her eyes at all.
She had revealed a lot.
There was indeed something wrong with her, but would Darien really send a woman with such poor acting skills over?
Aleigha looked into Adrian's questioning eyes, thinking of the reason why he kept her in the study before, "Was he testing me?" She thought.
In the past life, she attended today's party as Adrian's fiance. Coming to this life, since Adrian didn't fully probe her identity and background, he had no reason to bring her here. Unless...
"He was testing if I am sent by Darien. Such a scheming man. I forgot his nature." Aleigha thought. She felt a chill on her back as if she was working with a tiger.
Adrian witnessed all expression changes on her faces, from disdainful to fearful.
"The fearless woman who dared to call my full name now afraid??" Adrian thought.
The more he looked at her, the more suspicious he felt.
The car stopped in the courtyard of the Gardner family.
Back on the day that Aleigha visited the estate of the Gardner family, she was shocked by this group of ancient-looking buildings.
Even with the passing of time, its charm had never faded.
When Aleigha saw this estate again this time, she wasn't touched by the residence's beauty but by its value sitting in this area. It was already worth over a hundred million yuan.
As long as the Gardner family fell into chaos, this estate would also be implicated.
The walls were covered in moss, and a cluster of red flowers peeked out from it.
She took that flower off and saw it in a daze.
"What are you looking at?" Adrian felt strange about her, thinking how come a spy looked so emotional?
"It is blooming so well." She didn't answer directly.
"Of course, it's right in the full bloom."
"No matter how beautiful it is, it will wither sooner or later." She threw the flower away and left. Last second, she was still pitiful by the blossom, but she discarded right away. How rapidly she changed.
Adrian would not know that Aleigha just saw her miserable life from this flower. Once opon a time, she was a flower- like woman, but she was destroyed right before she greeted her full bloom.
She entered the estate. Every time
she walked into Gardner's
residence, seeing the traditional courtyard immersed in flowers, she felt like having a time- traveling and went back to the ancient palace.
"You've been here before?" Adrian asked Aleigha, who directly walked to the reception room.
"No, I just think here is beautiful. I'm just looking around." Aleigha took back her thoughts. "Mr. Xiao, why do you bring me here?"
"You'll know soon."
Actually, both of them knew the reason. Bringing Aleigha here was to test if she worked for Darien.
Since it was the party of those families, Darien would also present. Adrian suspected it was he who sent Aleigha over.
When they were about to reach the door, Adrian stopped and said, "Come, hold my arm."
Aleigha did not refuse. She wanted to visit those old friends and return the pain she suffered.
She held Adrian's arm and walked into the room with him.
"Adrian! You' re here! I heard that you had a car accident. How are you?" Said Darien's mother, a hypocritical woman.
Adrian couldn't figure out why Elliot married this kind of woman.
In the beginning, the Xiao family was harmonious, since this woman married in, she worked with her son and other relatives, bringing so much chaos to this family. Before Adrian could respond, everyone noticed the woman he brought. Their concerns for his car accident instantly turned into this strange woman. "Who is she?"
"My female companion," Adrian said.
The word "female companion" could be explained a lot. Aleigha could feel the eyes cast from all directions toward her.
The eyes cast on her contained jealousy and envy. But Aleigha understood, she was just a tool that Adrian used to test Darien.
"Probably, he is doubting if Darien used a honey trap on him."
Thinking of this, Aleigha was a little chill. Sure enough, Adrian had always been so scheming.
Fortunately, she didn't fall in love with him again.
A cold gaze came from a corner. Aleigha was quite uncomfortable being stared at by that
person.
He was Dustin, her grandfather. She was raised in the countryside for many years, and nobody of the
Gardner Eamily remembered heret
look. They thought Aleigha was on the way home, and none of them expected the woman who appeared to be Aleigha.
Of course, the old master Xiao was angry to see Adrian bringing a female companion.
"Adrian, come over here." The old man said coldly.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Adrian glanced at the people around him and said, "She's a guest of the Xiao family. Treat her well."
Then he told Aleigha, "Wait for me here."
"Go ahead." She took her hand back.
