So even though Adriana knew Philip meant well, she still felt uncomfortable. It was clear that he didn\u2019t fully trust her abilities either.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cPhilip, marriage should be based on choice. It only works if Justin agrees,\u201d Adriana said softly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She also understood that if Justin left the Barton Group, the internal fallout would turn into open warfare.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That was exactly why she had to prepare ahead of time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have to keep Justin at all costs,\u201d Philip reminded Adriana again, stressing that she couldn\u2019t afford a single mistake.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was a critical moment. If Adriana lost Justin\u2019s backing and the trust of senior management, Danielle and Chandler could storm back at any time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After all, Chandler was still Jeremy\u2019s son. Even with a will in place, some executives would still support him for their own benefit.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana nodded, her heart heavy, while quietly thinking about how to stabilize everything.\u00a0<\/p>\n
At the hotel, Danielle sat on the couch, nervously waiting for a call. \u201cDad, this is our last shot. We have to make Justin leave the Barton Group and refuse to marry Adriana. Once Justin gives her up, she won\u2019t be able to win people over with her ability alone. Then we\u2019ll lobby the ex\u00e9cutives together. If more than half back you, you can take control of the Barton Group again.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chandler nodded. He knew it was their final chance. \u201cRelax. Mister already called back. He said he\u2019ll find a way to remove Justin from the situation.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle still felt uneasy. \u201cI\u2019ll call Savannah. Can she really handle this?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis can\u2019t fail,\u201d Chandler warned again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle nodded and walked aside to call Savannah.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Savannah didn\u2019t answer. It was obvious that she no longer took Danielle seriously.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Furious, Danielle slammed her phone down, grinding her teeth. \u201cThat Savannah\u2013what is she so arrogant about? Just because she took down her father and got rid of his illegitimate son, she thinks she\u2019s untouchable now? I can\u2019t wait to see her fall!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Her breathing grew rapid as she clenched her fists in anger.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was dying to see Savannah crash and burn.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGo see Justin yourself,\u201d Chandler said meaningfully. \u201cNo matter what you do, you must stop him from\u00a0<\/p>\n

He even considered letting his daughter seduce Justin. If Justin crossed his own line for Danielle, he would never marry Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle panicked. Justin had never liked her, and she had bullied him since they were kids. She\u2019d even mocked him as the Bartons\u2018 lapdog.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But she had no other option now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll go\u2026\u201d Danielle steeled herself and walked out of the hotel room.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Barton Estate.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jeremy\u2019s funeral lasted seven days. After the burial, Adriana stayed at the cemetery the entire afternoon.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She stood quietly before Jeremy\u2019s gravestone, staring at it in silence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As far back as she could remember, she\u2019d grown up in an orphanage. She had hated her biological parents while still hoping they\u2019d come for her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She thought she\u2019d been abandoned. But the truth was, her parents had been murdered long ago.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She felt resentful and unwilling to accept it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If they hadn\u2019t died, she would\u2019ve grown up cherished by the Bartons, surrounded by admiration and love.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But the world had its rules. There were no ifs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you\u2019re sad, just cry,\u201d Curtis said softly as he walked up behind her, wearing a baseball cap and black athletic clothes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He wanted to stay by Adriana\u2019s side to protect her and support her. But now wasn\u2019t the time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cJust hold on a little longer,\u201d Curtis said, holding her hand. \u201cSoon, it\u2019ll all be over.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
One day, the truth would come out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana squeezed his hand tighter. Being in the cemetery, she didn\u2019t dare hug him, but just having him there made her feel steadier. \u201cI miss you so much.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She was strong inside, but when it came to love, she was fragile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She missed Curtis deeply and wanted him by her side all the time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But that wasn\u2019t realistic. She had to learn how to grow on her own.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople at the company are pushing me to marry Justin soon.\u201d Adriana lowered her eyes as she waited for Curtis\u2018 response.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t worry. You two won\u2019t get married,\u201d Curtis reassured her. \u201cAnd the Barton Group won\u2019t fall into chaos either.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
If Adriana truly couldn\u2019t handle it, he would step in.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Even if it exposed him, he wouldn\u2019t let her get attacked from both sides or let Chandler take back the Barton Group.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI can handle it,\u201d Adriana said firmly, looking at Curtis and asking him to trust her. \u201cI really can.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She already had a plan.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She looked at Curtis seriously. \u201cJustin does plan to leave the Barton Group, but not right away. We\u2019ll use Grandpa\u2019s funeral as the reason and say we need a year of mourning, so the wedding won\u2019t happen yet. Before Justin leaves, I\u2019ll make sure everyone in the Barton Group sees what I\u2019m capable of.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
