Chapter 13 Curtis, "Babe, I've Helped Campaign for You."
After sending the WhatsApp message, Curtis felt uneasy and quickly retracted it, changing it to "Vote For Adeline."
He worried that Logan couldn't handle his provocation and hurried back.
His relationship with Adeline wasn't stable yet.
That guy couldn't come back just yet!
He had to wait until they're totally smitten with each other before he could come back and enjoy the spoils!
After posting the update and informing his close friends and relatives, Curtis still felt it wasn't enough.
He looked solemnly at Steffen, saying, "Immediately send an urgent memo, demanding that all employees in the company vote for Mrs. Riley. Each person should vote three times a day! Not a single vote should be left out! In short, Mrs. Riley must not lose!"
Steffen, "..."
So, all that frowning was because of this???
"And you, you need to report to me every hour about the voting situation for Mrs. Riley. If the second place catches up, we need to come up with a new plan."
Steffen, "..."
"Why aren't you going already?! Do you want Mrs. Riley to lose?"
Curtis shot him a glare, scaring Steffen to shrink his head. Steffen quickly responded and got to work as per Curtis's instruction.
After arranging the voting matters, Curtis messaged Adeline.
"Babe, I've helped campaign for you."
Adeline, "Thank you."
Soon, Curtis added, "Together with me, I won't let you lose."
When Adeline received the message, she felt her face blush slightly.
Through the screen, it was as if she could sense Curtis's dominance.
She didn't reply, unsure of how to respond. But she had a strange feeling in her heart.
It was like being seen as someone really important.
It was an experience she had never had before.
With Curtis's help, Adeline's vote count quickly surpassed the second place and created a significant lead.
By the time school ended, Adeline had a lead of ten thousand votes over the second place.
In Melissa's words, this wave was secure!
Seeing that she didn't need to campaign herself, Adeline was happy. She was about to call Curtis to thank him and ask if he was coming home for dinner when Curtis called her.
"Mrs. Riley, can you leave work now? I'm waiting for you at the school gate."
Adeline paused for a moment, then quickly replied, "Oh, I'm leaving work now. I'll pack my things and come down."
As she walked out of the school gate, Adeline spotted Curtis's car parked not far away.
Curtis rolled down the car window and waved at her.
In a hurry, Adeline ran over, unknowingly passing by two male colleagues by her side.
The male colleagues were stunned when they saw her getting into a luxury car.
Another male colleague nudged his elbow and sarcastically said, "Don't bother looking. A million-dollar car like that is not something we teachers can afford. Good-looking women all want to marry someone rich. Accept this fact!"
Watching the departing figure of Adeline, the male colleague sneered, "Thought she was different, but turns out she's just like any other woman."
"True!"
