Adrian had many candidates in mind, but one particular person should prove to be of great help to Samantha.


Adrian turned to look at Samantha and said, “Riley


“Riley?”


Samantha was really surprised when she heard this name, naturally knowing who Riley was since the woman was a Xander.


Although she and Riley had not interacted with each other much, she could tell that Riley was the only one of the Xanders with a decent personality.


The fact that Adrian brought up Riley’s name was proof that he acknowledged her,


But..


“Will she on me though?” Samantha asked in a worried tone.

Adrian simply smiled and said. “We’ll never know what she’ll say until we try.”


He’s right Plus, Riley is indeed a capable woman, Samantha thought


Riley had graduated from a reputable university and even learned a thing or two from Henry when she had been under his tutelage


“Should we invite her for a meeting?”


“Sure. Do you have her number?”


Samantha pondered for a while. “My friend might have her number. Let’s see…”

Riley pondered for a moment before saying, “Sure, where should we meet?”


Adrian contemplated, then replied. “There’s a diner near my place. I’ll wait for you there.”


“Okay,” answered Riley..


After ending the call, Samantha sounded rather displeased as she said, “Why are you being so stingy? Riley’s your cousin. Plus, I may not have been in contact with her over the years, but I know she has gone out of her way to help Ada a few times.


remember Ada was being bullied in school last year, and Riley went directly to the school when she found out.


“She’s actually a decent girl, but I can’t say the same for her parents.”


Samantha felt a little helpless at that point,


Meanwhile, Adrian had nothing to say. Riley had always been protective of Adaline. Hence, it would be impossible for Adrian to change his opinion of her even though he had a huge grudge against Leonard


“We aren’t that well off, so we should save up whenever we can. Plus, Riley’s family. Wherever we bring her, I’m sure she won’t mind.”


Samantha sighed. “He’s right. I can’t afford to take her out to a fancy restaurant anyway
