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 rtionship with Adeline wasn''t stable yet.
That guy couldn''te back just yet!
He had to wait until they''re totally smitten with each other before he coulde back and enjoy the
spoils!
After posting the update and informing his close friends and rtives, Curtis still felt it wasn''t
enough.
He looked solemnly at Steffen, saying, "Immediately send an urgent memo, demanding that all
employees in thepany 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 ce catches up, we need toe up with a new n."
Steffen, "..."
"Why aren''t you going already?! Do you want Mrs. Riley to lose?"
Curtis shot him a re, 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 ce and created a
significant lead.
By the time school ended, Adeline had a lead of ten thousand votes over the second ce.
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 wasing 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
ande 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-
dor car like that is not something we teachers can afford. Good-looking women all want to marry
someone rich. ept 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!"
After getting in the car, Curtis took Adeline to Clita za for dinner.
After they got out of the car, Adeline pushed Curtis into Clita za.
Meanwhile, Adeline''s third brother, Jacob, also entered the shopping center with Mr. Baker.
Mr. Baker and Jacob were both wearing masks, apanied by two sexy femalepanions with
nice figures.
"Mr. Baker, please, this way." Jacob walked ahead like a servant, leading the way.
Mr. Baker frowned beneath the bandage on his forehead, his face not looking too good. He snorted
and his gaze fell on the two femalepanions behind him, and he asked, "What''s the meaning of
this?"
Jacob quickly leaned in closer to Mr. Baker''s ear and whispered, "These two have some fame in the
modelling circle! They''re even younger than my sister. Tonight, let them take good care of you."
"Shoo!" Mr. Baker pushed Jacob away, casting a disdainful nce at the two women, "Tell them to
get lost! Shallow and vulgar!"
Jacob''s face stiffened, about to say something, but Mr. Baker''s eyes widened, frightening him. He
quickly pulled out some tip money and handed it to the two models, sending them away.
"Mr. Baker, calm down. Tonight, I''ll have some drink with you." Saying that, Jacob made a gesture
as if to say, "Please."
Mr. Baker walked towards the restaurant on the second floor of the za, his expression extremely
sour, "I''m asking you, Jacob, what''s your intention now? I told you to bring your sister to apologize
to me, but you haven''t done it."
"Sigh, how could I not do it!" Jacob sighed, "It''s that my sister isn''t sensible enough. She got
pped by our parents, and her face is all swollen. She can''t go out and meet people. I thought,
once her face is better, I''ll bring her to apologize to you."
Mr. Baker nced at him with a doubtful look, "Really?"
"Really. Don''t you know my parents'' attitude! We''re all on your side. It''s all my sister''s fault, she just
doesn''t know how to appreciate it!"
Mr. Baker''s expression eased slightly, "Jacob, let me tell you, I''ve really taken a liking to your sister.
Ever since I saw her, I find these superficial things outside to be meaningless. They''re too low-levelN?velDrama.Org owns all content.
to catch my eye."
"And, I won''t lie to you, I really want to marry Ms. Burton. She''s a nice girl, gentle and adorable, and
she knows how to educate children. It just so happens that your sister is a teacher, and my son likes
her."
"Yes, yes, yes. I''ve always told my sister that it''s her good fortune to be noticed by you."
Mr. Baker nodded in agreement, his expression softening slightly. Jacob''s ttery made his mood
improve a bit.
Suddenly, his gaze fell on Adeline, who was pushing Curtis in a wheelchair not far away. She was
bending down to speak to the man in the wheelchair asionally. They wereughing and talking,
as if nothing else mattered!
Mr. Baker''s anger red up instantly, "You, Jacob! Are you fooling me?! Your sister is perfectly fine,
yet you said she was pped and couldn''t show her face. Look at her, she has the audacity to
mingle with other man!"
Jacob furrowed his brows tightly and blurted out without thinking, "Could it be that she''s really
married?"
"Married?" Mr. Baker''s tone rose a few notches, his chest heaving with uneven breaths, "What?
Your sister would rather marry a disabled person than marry me!"
Jacob realized he had said the wrong thing and mentally pped himself, "That''s not what I meant.
I don''t know for sure if my sister is married or not. She probably said it just to deceive me."
Mr. Baker squinted his eyes and observed the two of them as they walked towards a restaurant. He
was certain, "The way they are, their rtionship must be more than just ordinary! Jacob, let me tell
you, today your sister must apologize to me for this!"
He pointed at the bandage on his head and said firmly, "Even in front of her disabled husband, she
should kneel down and apologize to me! I don''t care if she''s married or not! If she is, she still has to
serve me until I''m satisfied, only then can this matter be over!"
Jacob''s face looked grim.
The words Mr. Baker spoke were too vulgar.
He knew that his previous rtionships with two married subordinates were unclear. But after all,
Adeline was his sister, and no matter how much he disliked her, he couldn''t bring himself to do such
a disgusting thing.
Mr. Baker noticed his hesitation and his voice grew heavier, "What? Don''t you want the project
approved anymore? I know very well that your bankruptpany is counting on that project to turn
things around. Tell me, you''re the third child in your family, so if you make your family''spany go
bankrupt, do you think your father will still look high at you? Will you have any im to the
company''s inheritance?"
Jacob''s face stiffened, and he gritted his teeth as he took out his phone to exin, "I''ll settle this
matter for you, Mr. Baker! I''ll make a call and have several bodyguards downstairse up. They''ll
surely teach my sister and her disabled husband a lesson."
Mr. Baker sneered at him, his eyes narrowed, "Oh, are we not acting like devoted siblings
anymore?"
Jacob smirked, "That''s all on my sister. If she hadn''t bashed your head, would this even be
happening?"
Mr. Baker nodded satisfactorily, looking forward to the moment when he could sit in front of
Adeline''s disabled husband, holding the little beauty in hisp and kissing her. It felt particrly
exhrating.
Soon, several bodyguards arrived, and they hurriedly walked towards the private room where
Adeline and Curtis were seated.
Click.
The door to the private room was forcefully pushed open, startling Adeline.
