Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover

Chapter 1605 Daddy Is Going To Scold Me

Adalyn turned pale and then blushed.

“No, My Lord Duke, my family is fine. Today, I am only…”

“Lady Emily, have your finances fallen into trouble after buying Sir Goldin’s shares in the school? So, why did you do it?”

“Indeed, you cannot afford even one piece of jewelry, and you are wearing only a crystal flower on your neck. Lady Adalyn, it’s the Duke’s birthday today. Even the king will grace this function. Is your dressing appropriate?”

Adalyn was at a loss for words.

 

Everyone present started to criticize and insult Adalyn without restraint.

When Sir Goldin’s shares were bought off by a foreigner, they were displeased. On top of that, Adalyn had shown so much favor to that girl.

 

Finally, Adalyn’s countenance fell.

Adalyn turned pale and got ready to leave immediately.

At that very moment, a girl dressed in a school uniform made her way through the crowd. She witnessed so many people ganging up on Adalyn.

The girl’s face was cold and stern!

“What is wrong with her attire? The stars today are the old Duke and the old Duchess. Our Lady Adalyn is plainly dressed so that they can shine. Isn’t that a good idea?”
