Falling For My Mysterious Wife

Chapter 309

Jalen thought, I won’t tell Elaina that the only reason why I agreed to Saul’s request was that he promised me not to pester Elaina anymore.

Saul’s request sounded ridiculous, but I agreed anyway.

“I don’t think he is good at acting. If anyone from his family sees them together, they will be suspicious,” Jalen said. Instead of answering Elaina, he changed the topic.

Elaina glanced at Jalen. He didn’t tell her, and she wasn’t intending to ask him further.

“Are you sure you don’t need my help to deal with the Stein family?” Jalen asked. He was worried that Elaina would not be able to handle it and wanted to help, but he was also afraid that by doing so, he would jeopardize her plan without her consent.

Elaina took out her phone, clicked on the photo album, and handed the phone to Jalen.

“Yes. I have found a breakthrough already,” she said.

She had been doing some digging about the Stein family in the past few days, and she had finally found some clues.

Jalen looked at the photo in the album and frowned. “This is?”

“Deven’s sister,” Elaina replied with a smile. “She is the daughter of the Stein family, but not many people know about it. She has received almost no preferential treatment when working in the Stein Group.” Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“Are you going to flip her?” Jalen instantly figured out Elaina’s plan.

Elaina nodded and then shook her head. “Not really. It’s easy to tell that she isn’t close to her family. I don’t need to flip her at all.”

“What if she is doing that willingly? Maybe she wants to sacrifice for her family,” Jalen said. Not everyone was as ambitious as Alisha.

Elaina was silent for a moment. Then she said, “It’s a possibility, but I think it’s pretty remote.

“Maybe she was willing to sacrifice and had no complaints at the beginning. However, it has been a long time. Without anything in return, who won’t hold a grudge?”

Elaina thought, never mind Deven’s sister. I couldn’t have managed it if it were me.

Jalen did not say anything else. “Now that you have a plan, go ahead. I’ve got your back. through thick and thin.”

He thought, taking down the Stein family won’t be easy, but it’s not entirely impossible.

“Thanks,” Elaina said to him. She thought, it’s nice to know someone is always there for me

Elaina and Jalen chatted as they walked, whereas Saul and Adriana, who were ahead of them, weren’t having a pleasant conversation,

Before today, Adriana did not think much about it. However, after hearing Saul and Elaina’s words today, she figured something out. Once she gave it a bit more thought, she could easily infer what Saul meant.

She was silent with a heavy heart.

Saul did not know what she was thinking. He asked while seeming casual, “There’s a movie theater upstairs. Do you want to go see a movie?”

“No!” Adriana refused him without hesitation.

Maybe she realized that her reaction was a bit exaggerated, she quickly explained, “Sorry. It’s just that I don’t like movies.”

Saul smiled and asked casually, “You don’t like movies, or you don’t like movies with me?”

He was not stupid. On the contrary, he was very smart.

“Saul…”

“Adriana, I think you already know that I have feelings for you. If so, why don’t we talk?” Saul glanced at Elaina and Jalen behind them out of the corner of his eye. Seeing that they were still far away, he retracted his gaze.

Adriana bit her lip. She did not say yes or no. Instead, she asked, “What do you want to talk about?”

“Nothing serious. Why don’t we talk about your type?” Saul smiled and looked at

Adriana. His eyes were full of dominance as he stared at her, making her a little afraid to look him in the eye.

Adriana did not know what she was afraid of. She thought, I didn’t do anything wrong. Why do I feel guilty?

I need to force myself to calm down. After all, I’m a few years older than Saul. I shouldn’t be deterred in front of him.
