There\u2019s a project he wants to oversee personalty, and he asked to see you,\u201d Justin said softly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He was usually cold and distant. This was probably the gentlest tone he could manage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But Adriana wasn\u2019t in the mood to appreciate it. Her mind was consumed with thoughts of Curtis.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlright,\u201d she replied quietly, Jeremy suddenly wanting to meet her could only mean trouble.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>People said his health had been poor for years. He almost never took long flights. Even though the trip from Harborton to Haldoria only took about two hours, that was still a lot for him. There couldn\u2019t be many business matters important enough to make him travel that far.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The only thing Adriana could think of was the divorce.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf he wants to talk about me and Curtis getting divorced, I don\u2019t think I need to see him,\u201d she said softly. \u201cIf I disagree, he will get upset.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She doesn\u2019t want to upset so many people, but she didn\u2019t want to divorce Curtis either.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Last night, she suggested the divorce. If Curtis had agreed, she would\u2019ve gone through with it. And as long as he didn\u2019t agree, Adriana would never say yes to anyone about divorcing him. \u201cIt\u2019s not about the divorce,\u201d Justin explained helplessly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen\u2026 \u201cAdriana frowned. Outside of that, she genuinely had no idea why see her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry,\u201d Justin added. \u201cI don\u2019t know the exact reason either.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>wanted to\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He couldn\u2019t tell her the truth, not about her identity, not about the danger. Chandler and Danielle were dangerous. The fewer people who knew who Adriana really was, the safer she would be. Ideally, she should be kept in the dark as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Justin told Jeremy that Adriana was his granddaughter. Jeremy had held back for a long time, but he finally couldn\u2019t control himself. He decided to come to Haldoria to lay eyes on the granddaughter he\u2019d been thinking about for years.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For Adriana\u2019s safety, he had already decided to deal with Danielle and Chandler ahead of schedule. Until they were completely taken care of, he couldn\u2019t bring Adriana home.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Adriana nodded and got into Justin\u2019s car.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>13\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>14:30 Wed, Dec 24 W\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 228 He Loved Her Unconditionally\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCan I call you Adriana?\u201d he asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She nodded.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDo you love Curtis?\u201d Justin asked plainly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Adriana froze for a moment, then nodded without hesitation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Love \u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a579%\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+10 Free Coins\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Something dimmed in Justin\u2019s eyes. To be loved by many might sound like a blessing, but it wasn\u2019t the one he had hoped for.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Curtis loses everything, if people step on him if he no longer has the title of Harborton\u2019s Crown Prince, would you still love him?\u201d Justin asked quietly.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Adriana looked confused. \u201cI\u2019ve never loved him because of that title,\u201d she said. She didn\u2019t understand why everyone kept asking her that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When she loved Matthew, it wasn\u2019t because he was the heir to Langford Group.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She only fell for the sense of safety he gave her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But Curtis was different. Right now, he was her entire emotional support. He was her anchor, her only source of strength and confidence.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I got into a fight and the police took me away, he went to the station and got me out. When my classmates bullied me, he stepped in and stopped it. Every time I needed someone, he was there. Always behind me. He gives me the safety I\u2019ve dreamed of- everything I\u2019ve ever wished for.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Justin watched her, his eyes thoughtful.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He understood now. Adriana didn\u2019t just depend on Curtis. Over time, dependence became attachment, and attachment turned into love.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Adriana was someone who desperately needed safety. People like her often fall in love easily, but Curtis showed up too early. He filled all the empty spaces in her heart before anyone else had a chance. No one could take his place.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Justin turned to the window, staring at the passing view. He couldn\u2019t help but wonder, what if he had met Adriana first?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>After a long silence, he spoke again. \u201cCurtis went to Harborton.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Adriana\u2019s body stiffened. Justin saw the clear, stubborn eyes that always seemed calm. Now, her eyes slowly welling with tears.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>14:30 Wed, Dec 24 W\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 228 He Loved Her Unconditionally\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u6797\u5bb679%\u65e5\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+10 Free Coins\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Justin wasn\u2019t sure if he had said something wrong, but his chest suddenly felt tight. \u201cHey, don\u2019t cry. He went to Harborton because \u2026\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Justin, who was always calm, actually sounded a little unsteady. \u201cHe went ther with his grandfather. He\u2019s old now. His mind isn\u2019t so clear anymore.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Even Justin thought Harold was losing it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>a deal\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But then he thought again. Michael was Harold\u2019s only son. As he got older, how could he not think about his son\u2019s future?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For years, Curtis had shown nothing but cold anger in front of Harold. He acted like the moment Michael returned home, he would tear him apart. Of course the old man would worry about his son and his grandson.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor you,\u201d Justin said softly, \u201cand for the baby you\u2019re carrying. Curtis made an agreement with Harold. He signed a deal. As long as your baby is safely born, Curtis will give up all his inheritance rights. All his shares will be handed over to Denton. No conditions.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Justin\u2019s voice was quiet, almost a whisper.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Adriana\u2019s tears rushed out at once.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Deep down, she had already known.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For her and the baby, Curtis would definitely find a way to speak with Harold and make a deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>3\/3\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Cedella is a passionate storyteller known for her bold romantic and spicy novels that keep readers hooked from the very first chapter.
