Chapter 10 Realizing that he was still so obsessed with Adelaide , Amanda felt a surge of jealousy . She wished Adelaide would just die ! She bit her lip . " I'm okay with being your mistress . I don't need much , just a little bit of affection now and then . Is that too much to ask? " Garrett replied indifferently , " I'll get you a set of jewelry ." Hearing that , Amanda felt even more annoyed . " I wanna be your mistress , not a gold digger ! " " I can only give you money . My heart is all Adele's , " Garrett said , not giving her a chance to make a scene . " Wanna threaten me with suicide ? If you do , make sure you die far away from Evercrest !" Amanda felt frustrated . She thought about how hard it was to get close to Garrett and had to swallow her pride , softening her tone . " Sorry !" " Get out , " Garrett said impatiently , telling her to leave . She reluctantly pursed her lips , knowing she had to leave for now . Chapter 10 Standing in the elevator , she got an idea . She took a photo of the elevator floor display and sent it triumphantly to Adelaide , saying : " Adelaide , when you were on the phone with Garrett just now , guess what ? I was in his office too . " When Adelaide glanced at the message , Teresa snatched her phone away . After reading it , she cursed , " What a shameless , psycho bitch ! I mean , is the psychologist the Pierce family hired even any good ? With the way she's acting , it's not depression . It's more like she has got a serious mistress complex ! " Adelaide smiled faintly but still had to set the record straight . " The psychologist they got is one of the best in the country . No doubt about it ." " Oh , so her depression has taken a turn for the worse . She has gone completely crazy now ," Teresa said , handing the phone back to Adelaide . She looked at Adelaide with concern . " You've been with that jerk for so long . Are you sure you can let go ? " Adelaide took a sip of coffee , her eyes flickering with pain as she looked down . " I can't stand infidelity . " She didn't mind if someone had past relationships , but she absolutely couldn't tolerate them messing around with other girls while they were together . Chapter 10 Garrett knew this , yet he still crossed the line . " I thought all men in the world could cheat , but Garrett would never . " Teresa cursed angrily , " Cheaters are scum ! " Just then , Adelaide's phone rang . It was her mom , Jeanette Pierce . Teresa saw it and her eyebrows went up . " She's probably calling you home . Gonna make up some excuse to get out of it ? " Adelaide picked up her phone and smiled a little . " I can't avoid it anyway ." Then she answered the call . "Mom . " Jeanette bossed her around over the phone . " Tell Garrett to come over for dinner tonight . Get here early . I need to talk to you . " An hour later , Adelaide got to the Pierce's place . When she walked into the living room , she saw Amanda cozy in Jeanette's arms . Jeanette was all smiles , feeding her fruit . Adelaide was about to look away when Amanda gave her a mean look . She ignored it . " Mom , I'm home ." Amanda piped up , " Mom , I'm kinda sleepy . Wake me up when dinner is ready ! " Then she got up , yawned , and went upstairs . Chapter 10 Jeanette stood up and said softly , " Okay , I'll wake you up when it's ready . " She turned back to Adelaide with a completely different look on her face . " Mandy was in such a bad situation last night , and you left with Garrett without thinking twice ! Adelaide , do you think because you got married yesterday , you're really part of the Barnard family now ?! " Chapter 11 Chapter 11
