Adriana shot Belinda\u2019s classmate a sharp glare. \u201cWhy are you so pressed about Curtis picking her up? He\u2019s not even related to you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Right then, Curtis showed up with two candy apples in hand, stopping behind Adriana. He passed one to her and gave the other to Belinda.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Belinda\u2019s eyes lit up as she turned to the nosy girl. \u201cSee? None of your business!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Seeing that Curtis had actually shown up, her classmate let out a huff and quickly walked off.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Curtis smiled at Adriana and opened the car door for her. \u201cLet\u2019s\u00a0<\/p>\n
Belinda tried sneaking into the back seat, but Curtis grabbed her collar and nudged her toward the front. \u201cNice try, kid. That\u2019s my seat.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Belinda groaned dramatically before climbing in and slamming the door.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She suddenly felt like Curtis actually liked Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Was that good news or bad?\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAdriana, tomorrow is Saturday. Wanna go shopping?\u201d Belinda asked, her mood bouncing right back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana was about to agree, but Curtis cut in. \u201cNope. She\u2019s got plans.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Belinda\u2019s face fell, her excitement gone in a flash.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd show her some respect. Understood?\u201d Curtis added, figuring she was way too rebellious and had zero manners.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana glanced at him. He looked pretty intimidating when serious.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Still, he was her sugar daddy. As long as their contract marriage was in effect, she had to play along. Thirty million a year wasn\u2019t something to mess up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis took both Adriana and Belinda to a fancy restaurant. Once the girls were full and happy, he treated them to a movie.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Inside the theater, he held Adriana\u2019s hand the whole time. She sat stiff as a board, her mind racing and heart pounding too fast to follow the plot.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Did they really have to hold hands during a movie?\u00a0<\/p>\n
But if that was what her sugar daddy wanted, she\u2019d just deal with it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Afterward, Curtis bought ice cream for both girls.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Belinda felt like an unwanted third wheel.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She studied Curtis carefully. He seemed to be into Adriana now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There was no one else around, so if he was faking it, why keep pretending?\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cReady to head home?\u201d Curtis asked Adriana softly, watching her nibble at her ice cream.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She nodded obediently.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis smiled, took her hand, and led her into the elevator.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Belinda was about to step in when he pressed the close button too soon. The doors almost slammed into her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was startled, almost dropping her ice cream.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis looked apologetic, clearly too focused on Adriana to notice Belinda.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Belinda stood there, feeling a mix of grievance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
What\u2019s up with Curtis lately?\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the underground parking lot, the three of them spotted Matthew\u2019s car just as they arrived.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew was about to lock it when he noticed Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She froze, then instinctively moved closer to Curtis.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was pleased with her reaction and wrapped an arm around her. \u201cMr. Langford, what a coincidence.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew\u2019s face darkened, but he said nothing. His eyes stayed fixed on Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis led her past him and helped her into the car.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana kept her head low the whole time, never daring to meet Matthew\u2019s gaze.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He didn\u2019t call out to her either, though his eyes followed her until she disappeared.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Matthew had been all for marrying Natasha before, but now he kept dragging things out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCurtis and Adriana aren\u2019t divorced yet?\u201d he asked, ignoring the question. His face hardened as he stepped aside to call Danielle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat lunatic!\u201d Danielle shouted. \u201cCurtis went back to the Lincolns, threatened Mr. Harold, said he\u2019d walk away with nothing, and still refuses to divorce Adriana! He won\u2019t marry Nicole!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her voice shook with fury.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had no clue what was going through Curtis\u2018 head. He\u2019d even teamed up with Harborton and Haldoria Chamber of Commerce to block her and her father\u2019s company.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Now the company was sinking fast, nearly broke, with no investors left.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She\u2019d rushed back to Harborton, hoping Jeremy would help.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But he refused, saying everything in the Bartons belonged to Nicole.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle was about to go crazy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat man is insane,\u201d Matthew cursed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He\u2019d thought that once Nicole returned, getting Danielle to tell Harold that Adriana wasn\u2019t pregnant would push for a clean divorce.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He never expected Curtis to go completely rogue,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIs he really doing all this for Cynthia?\u201d Matthew asked quietly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
