Chapter 486


    L could hear Johanna’s voice clearly.


    Even though her rtionship with Johanna wasn’t as good as before, she never expected that Johanna


    wouldn’t say such things about her in front of J.


    It was true that L thought David wasn’t good enough for her. The man Johanna chose was not a


    good suitor. If this was in the past, L would never even bother wasting her time on such a person.


    “More often than I like, L makes grandiose aims but has puny abilities to back her up.” Johanna let


    out a mncholy sigh in the room. “You know what she’s like. I’m really concerned that she will end up


    being bullied by her husband’s family after she gets married. Your father and I have brought her up very


    carefully. At the same time, we don’t want her to suffer.”


    J’s gentle voice could be heard at that moment. “None of this matters. People are really open-


    minded now. Even if a woman doesn’t get married, it’s no big deal. Maybe she already has someone


    she likes. Why don’t you give her the freedom to let her choose who she wants to marry?”


    Johanna was still feeling worried. “No, I should keep an eye out on the young men in the White Group.


    Maybe I can find a diamond in the rough there. At this time, I’ll try to persuade L again.”


    L’s heart sank in her chest. She bit her bottom lip and appeared very sad.


    ording to what Johanna said, even if L turned down David Gray, Johanna didn’t intend to find her


    a husband of higher social rank. What hurt L the most was that Johanna implied she didn’t deserve a


    wealthy husband.


    It was not that L didn’t want to get married, but the man selected by Johanna happened to be too


    shabby. If she really married this kind of person, the other rich girls would all take turnsughing at her.


    Furthermore, she had just met Brandon, J’s husband. If the husband Johanna chose for L was


    as powerful as Brandon, L would definitely not object.


    Furthermore, she had just met Brandon, J’s husband. If the husband Johanna chose for L was

    Furthermore, she had just met Brandon, J’s husband. If the husband Johanna chose for L was


    as powerful as Brandon, L would definitely not object.


    What made L angrier happened to be J’s words. Judging from what J said just now, she was


    persuading Johanna not to get herself involved in L’s marriage.


    However, how could L marry a good man without the help of the White family?


    Angry and aggrieved, L ran down the stairs unhappily.


    “Miss White, where are you going? It’s almost lunchtime.” Seeing that L was wiping the tears from


    her eyes, the servant hurried to stop her.


    L was in a fit of rage. She pushed the servant roughly aside, opened the door, and mmed it behind


    her. “Go away! I don’t want to eat!”


    She walked down the streets by herself. The street was filled with people. Everyone seemed to have a


    destination in mind, only L had no idea where she was going.


    She was now known as the adopted daughter of the White family. The girls who used to tter her


    gradually stopped calling her. She didn’t even have a friend to listen to her grieve.


    After walking alone on the street for a very long time, L finally walked into a bar.


    This was the very first time she went to a bar to drink by herself. In the past, she always had several


    companions to drink with her.


    She cried while drinking at the same time. She never felt so alone before. The noisy popr music was


    so deafening that it covered her pitiful sobs perfectly.


    With her legs crossed, L proceeded to sit in the booth and drink wine directly from the bottle.


    Once she was finally drunk, several men suddenly walked up to her, their bulky figures blocking the


    bright light.


    “Hey girl, are you here alone to drown your sorrows with wine?” one of the men asked her roguishly. He


    constantly scanned her body up and down as if he was measuring the size of her breasts. He even


    reached out his hand, trying to grab hold of her wrist.


    L knitted her brows and shook off his hand. “Fuck off!”


    “Hey, it looks like you’re good at ying cat and mouse.” The man burst into raucousughter and


    directly sat down at L’s booth.


    L gave him a closer look. He was both fat and bulky. His face was oily and he was wearing a gold


    chain around his neck.

    What L really wanted to do was throw up, but she was too drunk to do anything. Several men


    surrounded her, which made her feel panicked.


    She looked around and wanted to ask for help, however, other people ignored her and her troubles.


    Just as those men were about to yank on L’s wrist again, a woman with an imposing manner came


    over to their booth.


    “How dare you push my sister around?! If you don’t leave now, don’t me me if I call the police!” The


    woman’s voice was full of aggression and her cold, sharp eyes made those men leave at once.


    After those men were gone, the woman gently helped L to her feet. She took a few tissues from her


    bag to wipe off the tears on L’s face and said in a gentle voice, “I’ve driven those bad guys away, so


    stop your tears.”
