Alex Fuller had intentionally left two empty seats at the dining table for Naomi and Adam, but one of the seats was currently taken by none other than Skylar Stone. Hailing from a pedigree family, Adam was most likely a prideful man who would not stand being robbed of something that belonged to him.
