Chapter 130 Mr. Riley Supported His Wife and Sought Parental Intervention
Before Adeline could even ask who the other party was, Curtis pushed his wheelchair out.
He looked at the inverted woman expressionlessly and asked, "Has the foolishness in your brain completely drained?"
"It's drained," the woman answered like a disciplined soldier.
"Apologize to Mrs. Riley," Curtis commanded.
The woman spoke like a well-trained soldier, "Mrs. Riley, I didn't do my job yesterday and failed to protect you, causing you distress. Please forgive me, Mrs. Riley."
Seeing Sara balancing on her hands, Adeline didn't know how long she had been in that position. Her face had turned pale, and her hands were trembling. With a heart full of sympathy, Adeline said, "Come down now."
"I can't. Mr. Riley hasn't given the order yet, so I can't come down," Sara responded.
Adeline looked at Curtis and said, "You should let her come down. Treating a girl like this is too over... Besides, I'm fine now."
Curtis glanced at Sara and said, "Aren't you going to thank Mrs. Riley for this?"
Sara put her feet on the ground, breathed slowly, and politely bowed to Adeline, "Thank you, Mrs. Riley."
Adeline finally got a clear look at Sara's face and said, "Oh! You're the kind-hearted person who helped me when I was surrounded by those journalists previously."
"Mrs. Riley, my name is Sara. Those are my jobs."
Curtis pointed at Sara and said, "From now on, Sara will be assigned to you. She is usually responsible for discreetly protecting you. Being a woman, it should be more convenient with her by your side."
Adeline hadn't realized that Curtis had been secretly sending a female bodyguard to protect her. She felt warmth in her heart once again.
"Alright, thank you, dear."
"You never have to be this polite to me," Curtis said warmly, looking at Adeline. However, when his gaze shifted to Sara, it turned cold as ice. He asked, "Why didn't you follow Mrs. Riley into the alleyway immediately yesterday?"
Sara's face turned pale, her hands clenched tightly, and she offered no excuses, "Mr. Riley, it was my negligence!"
Curtis frowned slightly, knowing that Sara must have encountered something.
Otherwise, with her vigilance and skills, Adeline wouldn't have been bothered by a small hoodlum.
His tone grew heavier, "Sara, remember your duty. I don't want there to be another next time!"
"Yes, Mr. Riley." Sara nodded.
Then, Curtis provided a few phone numbers to Adeline, "Steffen, Sara, Connor, and George. These are the people you can deploy at any time. They all have your number in their phones and know who you are."
Upon hearing that, Sara widened her eyes.
