Chapter 287 The Improper Lady

"Mason?!" Amelia exclaimed. "What are you doing here?"

"What? Am I not welcome?"

Mason, dressed in a simple beige suit, looked even more strikingly handsome. His androgynous beauty had already caught the attention of many women at the event. "Why would you think that?" Amelia said with a smirk, eyeing Mason and Sadie. "Do you two know each other?"

Mason slung an arm around Sadie and said with a clear voice, "Sadie and I go way back to our college days. I've always been there for her, like a guardian angel."

"I see," Amelia said, smiling meaningfully. "Just like Micah and me, then!"

Amelia never missed an opportunity to remind Sadie of the special relationship she had with Micah. However, mentioning Micah also inadvertently reminded Sadie of a promise she had made to him-to keep her distance from Mason... 'If that devil finds out about this run-in, there will be hell to pay.'

With this thought, Sadie shifted slightly to the side, stepping away from Mason's embrace.

Mason paused, a hint of dejection in his eyes.

"Well, if Sadie's got someone looking out for her, I won't intrude." Amelia grinned effortlessly and walked away.
