Chapter 104

Engagement party?” Julie looked at Adeline with confusion.

Adeline looked back at Julie with disappointment. That’s a shame. I thought you were here to stir up the engagement party! Turns out it’s just a coincidence”

“Elliot’s getting engaged today?” Julie was taken aback by the news

Adeline just shrugged it off. “Elliot doesn’t know yet, but that’s what our grandfather’s planning. Blanca, the daughter of Luminary Solutions, has been chasing Elliot for years. I dont know how she won Grandpa’s heart, but he plans to use this occasion to force Elliot into an engagement with her.”

“Force him.” Julie repeated softly

While checking her makeup in the mirror, Adeline said, “The plan is to trick Elliot here, then announce the engagement right in front of the media! I heard that’s how Elliot proposed to you”

So today at the Starlight Haven Hotel, Elliot’s grandfather Raymon and his parents were planning to trick Elliot?

Julie looked at Adeline. If Adeline knew, then only Elliot would be in the dark. “You’re just going to watch Elliot get tricked?” Julie asked Adeline. Despite their outward disagreements, Julie knew that as twins, they cared for each other.

Adeline smiled at Julie. “Do I even need to answer that? If he’s not getting married, I am. I certainly can’t help with this.”

True siblings indeed.

Adeline could tell what Julie was thinking. She patted Julie’s shoulder. “I know you’re not here to cause trouble, but given Elliot’s deep feelings for you, I’ll leave the task of rescuing him to you.”

With that, Adeline straightened her skirt and walked out with her head held high. Then Julie heard a gasp, Kieran? You came with Julie?”

Although Adeline had a delicate face, her voice was forceful

Julie quickly pushed open the bathroom door and stepped out. Kieran was standing quietly in his suit by the bathroom door, seemingly waiting for her.

Ever since Adeline found out that Julie was Kierans ex-wife, she had cut off all contact with Julie. In her anger, Adeline told Julie not to worry about. paying for the car she had damaged, because she didn’t want anything to do with Julie anymore.
