Her Return, His Regret by Natie

Chapter 168~ Never getting married

Bianca Jones was shooting an Ad at the Davis & Co.

Lora, as Miss L, had released a new collection and hired Bianca as her brand ambassador.

It was during the shoot when Bianca's phone kept ringing.

One of the staff took the phone to her and she was forced to answer when she saw who was calling.

"What is it, Mom?" Bianca asked.

"12 pm at Ocean's Basket. Don't be late," Bianca's mother, Evelyn Jones, said.

Bianca frowned, saying, "Mom, I'm busy-"

"I'm sorry but you have to be there. I always let you do what you want. But this involves the company. Even if you don't want to take over, you can help out in a way," Evelyn said on the phone. "Be punctual." Bianca rolled her eyes. She knew what her mother was up to. What other help can she offer than marrying a very rich man who can partner with the Jones Group?

However, Bianca wasn't interested in marrying a man who she didn't love. The only reason she was going was to give her parents face. After that, she was going to reject the arranged marriage.

It didn't take long for her to arrive at the restaurant. The moment she walked in and raised her head, her eyes met Adan's.

"Adan?" She asked, confusion coursing through her. "What are you doing here?"

Adan stood frozen in his spot, his shock palpable as he glanced at Bianca.

"You've got to be kidding me," Adan muttered under his breath.

How could his blind date be Bianca?

Bianca's eyes widened when it dawned on her. However, before she could speak, Madison intercepted.

"You two already know each other? That's perfect... at least there's no need for introductions," Madison remarked. Bianca glanced at her parents and asked, "Dad, Mom, what's going on?"
