"Forget it, she seems to despise me now," Chuck thought to himself. He didn't want his goodwill to go to waste.
At this time, Black Rose should have already eaten something, right?
Yep, she should have.
Chuck tossed the thought of Black Rose aside. The dishes that Adriana had prepared for him really were dishes that he had never eaten before. However, he was so worried about Willa that he didn't have much of an appetite, so he didn't really eat much.
"You're not having more?" Adriana asked.
It was the first time that a man not from the Whitlock family shared a table with her.
"No, I want to rest now," Chuck replied.
"It's still early. I'm a bit bored, so accompany me to a place first," Adriana suggested.
Chuck fell silent for several seconds before he asked again, "Are you really taking me to see Auntie Logan the day after tomorrow?"
It was in his nature to remain slightly doubtful.
It was not that he didn't believe her. He had just wanted to double confirm.
"Do you still not trust me? Don't you know who I am?" Adriana glanced at him.
"I do."
"Then that's enough explanation. Just go out with me. Well be going somewhere really important after tomorrow, so I need you to change your look!" Adriana stood up and headed outside.
Change his look?
Was she about to buy him clothes?
When he had just become rich, he would purchase luxury brands as well. As for now, he didn't care anymore.
However, he had no choice but to follow Adriana out anyway.
"You don't have to drive. Well take my car," Adriana stated.
Chuck opened the door to the car. A unique fragrance wafted out from the car.
"No other man has taken my car before. Get in," Adriana got in the car by herself. Of course, the driver was her bodyguard, Nelson.
Chuck followed suit.
Then, Nelson started driving.
Chuck glanced in the rearview mirror. He was checking to see if Black Rose was following him. She wasn't.
Was it because she wasn't aware that he had left?
That was not possible.
After all, Black Rose was very dedicated to her job, and she was a professional.
"What are you looking at?" Adriana asked.
Nelson, who was driving, met Adriana's gaze in the rearview mirror. He gave her a slight nod.
"Nothing," Chuck certainly wouldn't say that he was looking for Black Rose.
Now that he couldn't see Black Rose's car, Chuck deduced that Black Rose must've realized that Adriana was a dangerous woman.
Therefore, in order to not be discovered, she followed him farther away than usual.
Thinking of this, Chuck felt a little relieved.
"Oh, there's nothing nice outside to look at anyway," Adriana smacked her lips.
From Nelson's expression, she understood that Black Rose, who had been protecting Chuck in secret, had been subdued by Nelson.
How annoying. Why would Chuck even need a female assassin to protect him anyway?
Adriana hated this. She refused to allow any other women to come close to Chuck!
"By the way, what's your name?" Chuck inquired. They had known each other for so long, but Chuck still didn't know.
"Adriana Whitlock. You can call me Adriana," Adriana introduced herself to him.
Adriana Whitlock?
Chuck mumbled the name to himself but didn't say anything else. He glanced at the rearview mirror once again, but there were still no signs of Black Rose's car.
She was probably really following him from a
distance away. Chuck couldn't even see her car.
What a professional.
Upon thinking of this, Chuck felt at ease. After all, he had Black Rose's protection.
The car suddenly stopped. They had arrived.
This was the largest shopping center in the United States, home to some of the best tailoring shops in the country!
There was everything you needed in the mall.
Adriana felt that Chuck should dress up to attend the event the day after tomorrow.
After all, he would be a member of the Whitlock family in the future. Therefore, he couldn't humiliate her at the Yeager family's wedding.
At the very least, he had to be dressed appropriately.
Chuck had never been to this kind of place before, but even he managed to notice that it was a store for customers to order customized suits.
What occasion is Adriana talking about?
Just where on earth was Adriana planning to take him to?
Rather than feeling excited, Chuck felt more nervous. He had a feeling that something big was about to happen.
He trusted his instincts.
