Chapter 31 Mr. Robinson Doesn’t Seem Like Such a Faithful Person Mrs. Robinson? Adeline was surprised that Damara even knew about Abner being married. This wasn’t common knowledge in high society. Even those aware of it held a contemptuous attitude towards Abner’s nominal wife. As far as they knew, Moore Group was just a tiny company without powerful connections, and Abner was way out of their league. “Are you talking about that woman who hasn’t even shown up?” Adeline sneered. “You probably don’t know that she hasn’t attended a single Robinson Family gathering in all these years, and nobody in the Robinson Family acknowledges her. What makes you think she can be called Mrs. Robinson?” Many even suspected that she was so ugly that she couldn’t be seen in public, which was the reason for her obscurity. What Adeline said was true. Damara was virtually invisible in the Robinson Family, and only Old Mr. Robinson enjoyed her presence. Damara did not get angry and replied, “Whether Mrs. Robinson has attended the family gathering or not, she is still married to Abner. As long as the marriage certificate exists, any woman who tries to catch Abner’s attention should be morally condemned, don’t you think?” Adeline realized she couldn’t win this argument. 1333 ) Chapter 31 Mr. Robinson Doesn’t Seem Like Such a Faithful Person 40 Vouchers If she continued, her cousin would be branded as the woman trying to steal someone else’s husband. Adeline angrily retorted coldly, “But you’re doing the same thing! Do you think you can attract Abner with your good looks? He loves my cousin and has loved her for ten years.” “I don’t think he is that faithful.” This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Just as Damara finished her sentence, a cold and indifferent voice came from the doorway. “What kind of person do you think I am?” Damara froze momentarily; wasn’t Abner supposed to be in a meeting? Abner stood calmly; he had overheard their conversation clearly as Adeline didn’t close the door when she entered. Realizing this, Damara looked a little uneasy. Meanwhile, Adeline’s face lit up with excitement as she approached Abner. “Abner, aren’t you supposed to be in a meeting?” Abner cast a faint glance at her and spoke softly. “Penny is right. After all, I am married. I was hoping you wouldn’t say that I am your cousin-in-law anymore. That might be your cousin.” Adeline reluctantly lowered her head and mumbled, “I got it.” Abner looked deeply at Damara, put on the wristwatch from the nearby shelf, and turned to leave. Damara stood there, feeling a bit regretful. Why did she bother with 13:33 40 Vouchers someone like Adeline? Now it seemed like she might have offended the client She sighed, picked up the bag she left behind, and went to the innermost part of the room to change into the new clothes. Then she grabbed her keys and headed straight to A&U Villa. She drove away after touring around A&U Villa and assessing the general surroundings. The layout of A&U Villa and the landscape design around it had already been imprinted in her mind. However, she still hadn’t figured out the homeowner’s preferences. Abrier was just too unpredictable; she had no idea what he liked. On her way past a mall, Damara remembered that today was Perpetua’s birthday. She parked her car and planned to pick out a gift for her. Unexpectedly, as soon as she reached the necklace section, she saw Payne,
Payne was accompanied by a beautiful woman who seemed to be arguing. The woman slapped Payne hard during the dispute. Damara froze in her tracks, regretting that she had stepped into this situation at such an awkward moment. No wonder there weren’t many people around; they were probably all driven away. She just happened to barge in and stumbled upon their awkward situation. “Scu mbag!” The woman cursed and ran off in tears, clutching her bag. Damara planned to pretend she hadn’t seen anything and sneak away. 13:33 Chapter 31 Mr. Robinson Doesn’t Seem Like Such a Faithful Person 40 ¡Vouchers But before she could do so, Payne called out, “Penny, didn’t expect to run into you here. Shopping for something?” Damara had no choice but to stop and greet him with a forced smile, “Mr. Payne.” The young and handsome man didn’t mind the mark left by the slap on his face, and he said with a carefree pla yboy look. “I heard you secured my cousin’s project. Congratulations.” “I have to thank you for recommending me.” Payne scratched his head. “Oh, it’s nothing.” “Not at all. It may sound like nothing to you, but it was a big favor for me. I should treat you to a meal.” “No need for that. If you want to help me, there’s a chance right now.” “What is it?” Damara looked surprised when she saw Payne sigh with a troubled expression. “As you’ve seen, I got dumped by my girlfriend. Now I need you to be my companion and meet someone. You don’t know her anyway, pretend to be my girlfriend. It won’t take long, at most half an hour.” The situation had reached a point where Damara couldn’t easily refuse.

However, when they arrived at the restaurant, she realized that the person Payne wanted her to meet was his mother. It was Abner’s aunt, Jessica.
