Chapter 949 Accompany Me
“No…” Doris said. “Don’t say that, Mr. Adelmar. I still owe you 700 thousand dollars.”
“I have no reason to… accompany you,” Waylon said. “It’s not like I’d go out with whoever invites me.”
Who do you think I am? I’m an Adelmar, not a social escort!
Waylon felt dirty just thinking of that.
“It’s like this,” Doris quickly explained in case Waylon hung up. “I’ve asked to meet my ex-husband. I want to get
some money for child support, and I’ll also use the money to pay you back.”
“…”
“I’ve asked him to meet me at my rental house, but I don’t trust his character. I’m single and defenseless, and I
can’t fight against him if he decides to be violent. That’s why I need a man to accompany me…”

“Well… you’re the only man I know,” Doris stammered.
Waylon did not know whether he should feel angry or amused. He could not help but smirk.
“You’re the only person I can ask for help, Mr. Adelmar. There’s no one else who can help me,” Doris said. “Can you
help me, considering that the money will go to you?”
“Never mind then. I’m not going to show up just for money,” Waylon said coldly.xo.com fast update
Doris wanted to slap herself. She should have known better than to offer money!
“I’m sorry! I’m sorry!” Doris said. “I misspoke, Mr. Adelmar. I mean, can’t you take pity on me, a single mother with
two test-tube babies? Can you…”
Waylon was not in the mood to listen to Doris’ meandering speech.
However, he was taken aback when Doris mentioned “test-tube babies.”
Test-tube babies… What about them? I was also…
“Give me the location,” Waylon said. “I’ll show up.”
Doris was silent for three seconds. She thought her ears were playing tricks on her.
Wait! Did Mr. Adelmar just tell me to give him the location?
“Ahh! I’ll send it over now!” Doris said excitedly. “I’ll be back home in half an hour. You can come here now.”
“Alright then.” Waylon nodded and ended the call.
He originally planned to visit Nightfall Café to see how Emmeline was going. It looked like he would not be able to go
today.
Doris kept her phone away and prepared to start her electric scooter.
The glass door behind her opened, and Emmeline stepped out.
“Doris? Why are you still here?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEmmeline did not see Doris’ electric scooter from inside the café.
Emmeline happened to go out too, and she noticed Doris riding on the electric scooter.
“I was on a phone call earlier,” Doris said with a smile. “I accidentally knocked into someone else’s car while driving,
so I’ve learned my lesson. I’ll make the call first before I drive.”
“Take care while driving.”
“Yes, Ms. Louise.” Doris started the vehicle and sped away.
Waylon went to the location he was given. After parking his car in the parking lot, he found Doris’ apartment unit.
He knocked on the door.
Doris said that she would be home in half an hour. Waylon was twenty minutes late. She should be at home now.
“Coming!” Doris’s crisp voice was heard.
As soon as Doris opened the door, she widened her eyes.
In front of her was a man dressed in a pure white suit. He carried the demeanor of royalty.
