Miss Jiang, I Really Like You (1)

Everyone looked at Adrienne as if she had lost her mind. They were puzzled as to why she let the opportunity of being betrothed to Alistair slip from her hands, while Reese and Abigail were both relieved upon hearing her answer. 

Adrienne's decision to reject the betrothal left everyone in disbelief, as they had expected her to eagerly accept such a noteworthy offer. Some whispered among themselves, wondering what could have possibly made her turn down such a promising alliance. 

Alistair, who had yet to say anything, stiffened next to Prosecutor Ji and narrowed his eyes. Adrienne had turned him down before Abigail Li, which would make it hard for him to question her decision. He knew Adrienne was smart, but he hadn't expected her to be this bold. It was as if she already knew how he would react.
