Chapter 202 Rewards for Yolanda\u00a0<\/p>\n
That trust made him truly happy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMatthew, look at me. They both attacked me for no reason,\u201d Cheryl comp\u00a0<\/p>\n
rongly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Natasha quickly added, not willing to let this go. Matthew, Adriana and that girl teamed up to hit Cheryl.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew spoke coldly. \u201cShe looks fine to me. Since there\u2019s no proof, stop embarrassing yourselves and leave.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMatthew!\u201d Natasha snapped, furious.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew glanced at her with irritation. The Joneses were on the brink of bankruptcy because Ainsworth Group had been targeting them. Obviously, Matthew no longer saw them as allies. Natasha used to act high and mighty when Matthew liked her, but now she was desperately trying to please him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
What a change \u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n
Thinking about it, it was pretty pathetic.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana thought Natasha was not smart. When Matthew was crazy about her, Natasha kept playing hard\u2013to\u2013get until his love was drained. Now that she\u2019s lost his affection and the benefits, she ended up with nothing.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Langford, you\u2019re easy on the eyes, but your judgment is terrible.\u201d Yolanda looked at Matthew mockingly. \u201cMight want to get your eyesight checked.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew frowned and glanced at Yolanda but said nothing. He simply turned and walked\u00a0<\/p>\n
away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Natasha glared at Adriana. Now that her family depended totally on Matthew, she did to upset him. She had to swallow her pride and leave with Cheryl.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis turned to Adriana and gently pinched her cheeks. \u201cLet see. Did my sweetheart get hurt?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana\u2019s face flushed bright red. She looked at him nervously. \u201cW\u2013what are you doing? Yolanda is still here.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yolanda laughed. \u201cCome on, we totally won the war.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis raised an eyebrow. \u201cSince you won the war, let\u2019s go. I\u2019m taking you both to eat something good. You earned it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Adriana happily grabbed Yolanda\u2019s hand and followed Curtis.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She felt thrilled. She had a real friend now, and someone strong backing her up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before, Adriana wouldn\u2019t even dare dream of this kind of life.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She felt that Curtis treated her like a little kid\u2013spoiled, protected, and somehow, it felt warm.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nera Club used to be the Joneses\u2018 proudest property.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was once the most luxurious private club in Haldoria and a famous entertainment spot in the region. Natasha\u2019s grandfather founded it. He once declared to the public, \u201cAs long as my family stands, Nera Club will never change owners.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The driver pulled over in front of the club. Yolanda\u2019s eyes lit up. She looked thrilled. This was the kind of place people dreamed of experiencing at least once in their lives.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana\u2019s face went pale. She looked at Curtis with confusion. Didn\u2019t the Joneses run this club?\u00a0<\/p>\n
The last time she was here, she had sent Rufus straight to jail.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis glanced at the glowing golden sign at the entrance and spoke calmly. \u201cAt first, Nera Club was just a high\u2013end entertainment spot. But in Natasha\u2019s father\u2019s generation, they began running shady businesses here. It\u2019s no longer owned by the Joneses.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana stared at him, stunned. The Joneses actually lost Nera Club? That meant they were truly at the end of their road.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yolanda was stunned too. \u201cI heard some rumors from my dad. They said the Joneses were crushed badly by Ainsworth Group. They\u2019ve been trying to pull strings everywhere to find out who\u2019s backing Ainsworth Group. Seems they offended the wrong person. I\u2019m guessing Nera Club belongs to Ainsworth Group now.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana turned to Curtis in surprise. \u201cIs that rumor true?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis only gave a smile and didn\u2019t answer directly, but his silence spoke louder than words.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Why was Curtis so hostile toward the Joneses? Was it because of her?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Was she overthinking? Or \u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis held her hand gently as they walked toward the entrance. \u201cTo be exact, this place switched owners three months ago. They kept quiet because they didn\u2019t want to lose their\u00a0<\/p>\n

reputation. In the past three months, Ainsworth Group remodeled everything. Tonight is their soft opening.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yolanda looked even more excited now. A place like this only invited the wealthiest elites to its soft opening. For her, this was the perfect setting to reel in a rich bachel\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana saw the look in her eyes and instantly knew what was going on. scanning the room, ready to hunt.\u00a0<\/p>\n
was already\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis glanced at her and said, \u201cSince you won your fight today, I\u2019ll give you the guest list later. All the single ones. If you\u2019re interested in someone, I\u2019ll introduce you.\u201d Curtis was rarely this generous to any woman besides Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yolanda almost jumped in delight.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Those words felt like someone just handed her a fully loaded, unlimited credit card for her to swipe.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If Curtis provided the guest list and even filter out the married ones, it meant every single person on that list was trustworthy and definitely not one of those secretly married playboys.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana couldn\u2019t help but feel happy too. Curtis was treating her friend kindly. He wasn\u2019t as unapproachable as people said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Yolanda was a smart girl who understood social dynamics well. She knew exactly what she wanted. And she also knew the opportunity Curtis offered came because of Adriana. So while she loved the idea of catching a wealthy man, she understood one thing clearly: no potential man was more important than Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She didn\u2019t deny that she approached Adriana with a motive. But she was honest about it, and her affection for Adriana was genuine.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Curtis might be known by outsiders as cold, domineering, obsessive, or even heartless, but the truth was, no one read people better than he did.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As they stepped into the lounge, Adriana leaned closer to Curtis and asked softly. Ainsworth Group start going after the Joneses three months ago?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
