His Domineering Lover

The outside air was heavy and moist and sultry.

Aleigha left the Woods Residence after dinner. Freddie offered to give her a ride, but she said no. She chose to walk alone.

She was not afraid of people following her. She even wanted people from the Gates family to follow her.

She passed through the noisy Munver Avenue. A couple of blocks away was Adrian's villa.

Aleigha enjoyed the cool breeze. She didn't pay attention to the man walking towards her.

That man's footsteps were heavy and urgent. When he bumped into Aleigha, he didn't even turn his head.

Aleigha had a special hobby. She liked to remember the scent of a person.

She could remember the smells of all kinds of people, good or bad.

A person could have a million faces, but only one smell.

The smell would last a lifetime.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

Aleigha slowed down, but did not turn around. Instead, she searched her head for the owner of

the smell.

After the Gardner family fell apart, she paid a lot of money to get those people to leave. However, one man disappeared before she could tell him where to go. It was Dominic. Dominic was also the man who just ran into her.

In her previous life, Dominic had bullied her many times because he had Lainey's back. He had been really mean to her.

In this life, before he could do anything, Lainey and Emilia were already doomed.

He must have known that he would be over if he didn't run away. But why was he here? Aleigha became alarmed.

But Dominic did not show up again. Aleigha entered the villa and looked out the window, only to see no one. She put it behind her.

The trial was coming up. At this time, the Gates family invited all the celebrities in the city to a dinner party.

They didn't invite the Woodss, but Aleigha had received the invitation.

Holding the invitation card, Aleigha was confused. What was the Gates family up to?

"Godmother, what does the Gates family mean by this? They think they can win this case?"

Aleigha took the invitation and went to the Woods Residence.

"I guess Jodie's trying to take all the credit for what I did.

"The closer she gets to those celebrities, the more proof she's capable.

"She's about to go to trial, and she still hasn't forgotten to climb the ladder. That's really amazing."

Aleigha did not think that climbing the ladder was the only purpose of the Gates family. Perhaps they had other plans.

"Aleigha, if you don't want to go, then just don't go. You won't like this kind of banquet.

"The so-called celebrities are social climbers. I've come around. Nothing is more important than family."

Windy looked calm and her eyes were full of love when she looked at Aleigha.

"Godmother, since the Gates family wants me to go, I will. Anyway, they invited me.

"I'm gonna go see what they're up to and see if I can find anything interesting."

It was a rainy weekend.

Adrian picked Aleigha up from work and took her to the Gates Residence.

If it weren't for Aleigha, he wouldn't have come to this boring party.

Inside the car. Adrian's gaze was slightly cold as his expression darkened. "Aleigha, just stay with me tonight. Don't do anything."

Aleigha nodded and looked at Adrian. Seeing his gloomy expression, she couldn't help but laugh. "Okay."

"Don't laugh. If you continue to act without regard for your own safety, I will have you removed from this matter.

"I can't let my woman be in danger."

Aleigha's heart warmed. She thought he was really childish, but she didn't say it out loud.

She was the one who caused this matter.

When they arrived, they saw a lot of familiar faces. Aleigha remembered Adrian's warning.

So, she just followed behind him obediently.

When Jodie and her husband Gerald Gates saw Adrian, their eyes lit up.

They came to him with great enthusiasm.

It was the first time Adrian had deigned to come to their party. They felt honored.

Aleigha stood aside and looked at Gerald coldly. He seemed to be in his early fifties.

He was balding, stocky, with a sycophantic face and shrewd eyes.

When he stood with Jodie, who was still attractive in her early fifties, they looked perfect for each other. Things of one kind come together.

"Mr. Xiao, we're so glad to have you here. You made this party classy."

The coldness in Adrian's eyes gradually grew, and he did not hide his disgust. He hated flatterers.

It was a waste of time talking to them.

"Let's go over there." Ignoring them, he took Aleigha's hand and went to the champagne tower.

Jodie and Gerald looked at each

other. After a while, Jodie ge

and said in a low voice,

"Does he know what he's doing?

"I'm gonna make him regret it."

"Don't say that in public again." Gerald stopped Jodie in time.

"Aleigha, you're here." Lennon caught sight of Aleigha and Adrian in the crowd.

Normally, he wouldn't have disturbed her. But now, Darien was on good terms with the Landry family.

There was a thaw between the two families, so he took the initiative to greet them.

"Hey, stay away from Aleigha," Adrian warned in a cold voice and his face darkened.

Lennon was slightly taken aback, but

he immediately asked with a smile,

nice?"

"You think I should be nice to the Landry family? I'm supposed to look up to you like Darien did?

"Just because he's a coward doesn't mean I'm one.

Adrian's eyes full of sarcasm.

"You!" Lennon had always been a good-tempered person, but Adrian went too far!

Lennon left unhappily. Aleigha, who had been silent, didn't stop him.

Almost all the guests had arrived. Jodie led the way with a toast.

By doing so, she seemed to be telling people that she had a special place in the city.

"Miss Gardner, may I have the pleasure of this dance?"

"Get lost!"

A man invited Aleigha to dance. The next second, he was frightened away by Adrian's roar.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you so angry?"

Aleigha turned around and looked at Adrian. She felt that he was acting strangely tonight.

Adrian looked at the door without

tax anything. Then, he saw a

tall and straight man.

"How did they get together?"

Adrian frowned as a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "Darien is really everywhere."

"They didn't know each other before?"

Aleigha was curious.

"I don't pry into other people's private affairs, nor do I care what happens between them.

"Let's not come to this kind of pointless party again."
