Chapter 678 Adrian Colland’s Arrival
Skyler, who was walking toward them from not far away, stopped dead in his tracks when he saw what
was going on. A hint of surprise flashed by his pitch-black eyes that went wide slightly.
No, instead of surprise, it was more like he was amazed.
It was as if the door to a whole new world had been opened, and he was learning new things about
Shirley again.
“Oh my, I didn’t know she had such a fiery temperament,” teased Miguel, who was standing beside
Skyler.
As they were at a place like this, Miguel’s voice was lowered so that no one else could hear him.
Hearing him, Skyler tilted his head and quietly glanced at him with his eyebrows raised.
Just as Skyler was about to approach Shirley, another figure was one step ahead of him.
Said person was no one other than Wade Yoder.
Wade, a model at Starshine Media Agency, was also Shirley’s boyfriend who was introduced to Shirley
by Veronica.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe two gave dating a go for half a month, but Shirley had wanted to break up as she didn’t think they
suited each other. However, Wade, who claimed to like her, wanted to continue pursuing her.
Skyler was kicked out of Shirley’s single apartment on the day that Sofia hit Shirley at the entrance of
First Meeting.
Ever since then, Skyler had been deep in his work everyday. The few times he did actually come
across Shirley all ended up with her hiding from him.
Now that he was seeing Wade walk toward Shirley and pull her aside, Skyler couldn’t help his
expression from falling.
“Why are you just standing here? Aren’t you going to take a look?”
Miguel had a playful smile on his face as he watched Skyler’s expression.
“It is none of my business!” Skyler snorted before turning and walking to the pantry, where he stood
alone grumpily smoking.
After Shirley was brought aside, Wade stood in front of her to protect her. “Miss Claude,” he said to
Sasha as she scrambled off the floor and tried to pounce on Shirley. “You are drunk.”
“You’d best get out of my way! I am going to tear her to shreds. B*tch! How dare she… she hit me?!”
Even though Sasha was a woman now, she had the bone structure and strength of a man. As she
staggered forward, she pushed Wade aside and swung her hand at Shirley’s cheek.
Seeing this, Wade subconsciously brought a foot up at Sasha, causing the intoxicated woman to fall to
the floor again.
“What are you all doing?”
Before Veronica could stop him, another voice rang out within the mourning hall again.
Everyone immediately whipped their heads in the direction the sound came from, only to see Adrian
emerging from the crowd.
Adrian kept his eyes on Sasha the whole time. Seeing her fall to the floor, he automatically picked up
his pace to help Sasha up.
“Boohoo… Sob…”
The moment she saw Adrian approach, Sasha immediately threw herself against his chest and bawled
her eyes out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Okay, okay. Don’t cry anymore. I am here. I won’t let them off the hook.” He put his arms around her
and patted her back to soothe her. With his head tilted, he coldly glanced at the crowd before his eyes
finally fell on Wade. “You were the one who hit Sasha?”
Even though Adrian had an abusive streak, that didn’t stop him from loving Sasha.
He was the only one allowed to beat up the women he fancied!
Wade looked at the tall and dignified man in front of him, and he couldn’t help feeling overwhelmed by
the powerful aura from the man from just one look at him.
When Wade thought about Shirley behind him, he still picked up his courage and retorted, “Yes, I was
the one who did it.”
“Wonderful. I admire you owning up to your actions—”
“Mr. Colland.”
Veronica suddenly interrupted Adrian and walked in front of Wade. As she stood still, she stared at
Wade with cold eyes. “It has got nothing to do with him. This is my husband’s mourning hall. Sasha
Claude barged in and hit me for no reason. They were just teaching her a lesson on my behalf. Come
at me if you are displeased about it.”
