Chapter 299 What Exactly Is This Girl's Identity
"I had no idea the person the Vanderbilt Family was looking for would be her," Charles said in a calm voice.
Nicholas didn't keep teasing Charles, after all, he was more than satisfied with Adeline. "Then you better put on a good show. If you don't know how to woo someone, read some novels and get inspired!"
Read novels?
Charles wasn't planning on doing something so silly.
However, when he opened his phone and saw that Adeline hadn't replied to any of his messages, he swiped his finger and opened a novel that was very popular among girls.
After all, the comments were all praising the male lead.
Charles could casually handle business deals worth hundreds of millions of dollars, but he frowned as he read the novel.
The next day, Adeline's house was filled with a hundred cups of coffee, in various flavors and brands, along with a sea of roses.
People walking around the alley were somewhat stunned to see the entrance of the Lumina Vitae Foundation.
Adeline distributed all the sugar-free coffee and gave the high-sugar ones to Robert.
Robert drank until his belly was round, gesturing, "I never want to drink coffee again in my life!"
Adeline patted his head. "Hang in there, and take those flowers to share."
Robert was very agitated, wanting to find out who sent all these!
Adeline plucked a rose and chuckled. "Who else could it be? Charles."
Robert gestured, "He looked cooler when he handed over the bank card!"
Adeline didn't comment. She looked at her phone, put on a baseball cap, and wore a black mask. "Stay home with Grandma, I'm going to accept an award."
An award? What award? Robert looked puzzled.
Boss never liked attending such events, so what changed this time?
Adeline agreed to go mainly because she wanted to meet those who had been trafficked, especially Cadence.
Ravenwood County, after all, was half in Eldoria.
This time, a major case had been cracked.
Countless trafficked children were found.
Parents from all over the country came to personally thank Jesse.
Jesse's methods were indeed swift and thorough, leading to this peaceful resolution.
The situation in Eldoria had changed imperceptibly.
Ordinary people couldn't see it, but those working in the government knew that Jesse was destined to be the top leader in Eldoria.
Thinking back, some people had looked down on the newly arrived Jesse. The power dynamics in Eldoria weren't built in a day, and any move had to be carefully considered.
Who would have thought that Jesse didn't need to consider anything?
The big cases were handed to him, the impact was significant, and he didn't need to afraid to offend anyone. The higher-ups wanted to handle them.
"Jesse is really lucky!"
"Exactly. I see some higher-ups have came; he's definitely going to be promoted!"
Adeline hadn't even entered the door when she heard the drivers chatting outside.
She was on the award list, but she hadn't told anyone her departure time.
Daniel didn't care about that; he just stood at the door waiting. Seeing her arrive, he immediately stepped forward. "Ms. Vanderbilt, over here, over here!"
"Daniel." Adeline smiled as she walked closer. "What a coincidence."
Daniel was dressed formally today and smiled. "Louis is here today too. He asked me to see if you'd like to join us for dinner after the award ceremony."
"Sure, I haven't seen Louis in a while," Adeline said naturally.
The drivers were so scared they didn't even dare to smoke.
What kind of status did this young lady have?
Seeing her ride a motorcycle, they thought she was one of the trafficked people.
How could she know Louis?
