Chapter 133 Adeline and Mr. Riley Were Flirting with Their Tugging Gaze
Adeline was dumbfounded. It made her feel that she had only just begun to truly know Curtis.
He was quite mischievous.
Yet kind of handsome!
Soon, the two of them arrived at Riley''s mansion.
Before they even entered the living room, Curtis and Adeline could hear voices arguing.
It was Victoria and Olivia.
"Mom, I''m very disappointed in you."
"Olivia, we''re family!"
"I''m going to tell Grandpa and Dad about this. If no one restrains you, Mom, you''re going to get into
big trouble!"
"I won''t..."
As soon as Victoria stopped yelling, Curtis approached with his wheelchair.
Olivia''s eyes turned red as she averted her face, and she muttered "Uncle Curtis."
"Hmm." Curtis responded lightly and said, "I heard your father wasing today to visit Grandpa. I
came specially to have a chat with him and your grandpa."
As his voice trailed off, Victoria became nervous, hopping in ce, while saying, "Curtis, what are
you nning? I warn you, don''t speak nonsense. Otherwise, I''ll expose your fake marriage."
Curtis raised his eyebrow and asked, "Oh? Victoria, why are you so nervous? Are you worried
about what I might say to Frank? Are you implying that you sent your nephew to make advances on
Adeline? Or perhaps you''re concerned about your coboration with outsiders yesterday, attempting
to do something bad on Adeline?"
Victoria''s expression became stiff, and her demeanor was quite uneasy.
Oliva, who was unaware of her mother''s prior dealings with Alexander, looked at her in
astonishment, and her expression showed deep disappointment.
Seeing that, Adeline pretended to be frightened, pressing her hand on Curtis''s shoulder. Then, she
softly said, "Don''t... Our situation would be ruined if she tells Frank."
"Haha..." Curtis smirked, teasingly pinched Adeline''s nose, and whispered in her ear, "Looks like
you''ve learned some bad habits too."
Indeed, she had learned how to set a trap for Victoria.

Adeline gave him a yful re and answered, "Aren''t you the one who taught me that?"
The two of them bantered as if no one else was around, their gazes towards each other were so
sweet.
Olivia was a bit puzzled. She touched the back of her head and thought to herself, "Why do these
two seem to be flirting?"
"Cough, cough..." At that moment, old Mr. Riley slowly walked out, leaning on his dragon-headed
cane. When he saw Victoria and Curtis, he rolled his eyes in secret.
"Dad..."
Victoria and Curtis eximed in unison.
Frank''s headache intensified as he knew something wasing to him. Neither of these two was
easy to handle.
Without responding, Frank looked towards Olivia and Adeline, a kind smile forming at the corners of
his mouth. He said, "Olivia and Adeline are here. Come, quickly join me for tea."
Then, Frank turned and headed to the living room.
Olivia obediently stepped forward to pour a cup of tea for her grandfather.
A trace of contentment shed in Curtis''s eyes, he said, "The biggest contribution my sister-inw
has made to this family is probably raising a pair of well-behaved children."
Upon hearing that, Adeline blinked her eyes slightly.
She recalled Oliva''s argument with Victoria over her affairs just now and thought about everything
Olivia had done for her during those periods. She couldn''t help but admire Curtis''s character even
more.
He scolded Olivia, yet he also gifted her an expensive camera, which showed his approval of
Olivia''s character.
Despite his fierce sh with Victoria, he could still differentiate between the two of them.
At that moment, Adeline looked at Curtis, who was engrossed in conversation with Frank and found
him even more charming.
Of course, Curtis had no idea what was going through his wife''s mind at that moment. After
discussing a few unrted topics, he suddenly mentioned Victoria''s name.
"I''ve heard that Victoria is quite knowledgeable about financial lending and investments, is that
right?"
"No, I''m not." Victoria immediately denied it.
"Oh? I''ve heard that you''ve been involved in..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Victoria stood up nervously and asked, "How''s your rtionship
with Adeline recently? Do you have any ns for the wedding?"
