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.

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.

The king will make an appearance?

If that is so, then my attire today is embarrassing.

Adalyn turned pale and got ready to leave immediately.
