Chapter 1351 Rejected
Adriana some uneasy head down, lightly pursed red lips, white teeth biting the lips, into a struggle.
Should I tell him?
“You get some sleep and I’ll go make some porridge with you.”
Since she didn’t want to talk about it, Peter didn’t want to force it.
But her reaction had given the yes he wanted.
He got up to go out, and just as he turned around, Adriana tugged him by the hand, “Honey?”
Adriana sat up from the bed, and Peter immediately helped her to do so, caringly, fearing that she might have any discomfort.
To her such selfless care, spoiled into the bones, Adriana can not help but feel guilty, “I’m sorry, I know … I know you should have suspected something. Or rather, I should have told you earlier, but I …”
She looked up at the man and met those dark eyes. Adriana finally looked away with a sheepish inclination of her head, but held his hand tightly, her thumb scraping lightly on his fingernails with unease.
“Not telling me because you’re afraid I’ll be impulsive and look for Chaya?”
Peter did not get angry and sat down on the edge of the bed, raised his hand over her cheek and gently broke her face so that she could look directly at him.
From her clear, bright eyes, Peter clearly felt her unspeakable guilt and complex emotions.
“Silly girl, we are now in Obren, by Chaya’s hand, even if I want to be impulsive, I will not do it. The most important thing now is to take care of you, other things can be discussed later.”
Peter’s words were already clearly telling Adriana that he knew everything.
“I knew that sooner or later you would know. But I … really don’t know how to face you, because …”
Adriana said, covering her cheek with one hand, leaning against the bed, not speaking again.
How can one not see her distress and distress in that look?
“I know you blame Sloane, but I can’t hold Sloane right now so as not to spook the snake. you have to know that although she is my sister, Luis and Helen are my children, so how could I ignore them?”
Peter did not want to see Adriana in pain and unable to extricate herself.
Then he moved a little closer towards her, clasped his hands on her shoulders and leaned down close to her, “Adriana, look at me.”
The man was a stone’s throw away from her, and the warmth of his breath as he spoke came over her face, spurting on her cheeks and tickling her curly, slender eyelashes.
Adriana put down her hand, her bitter eyes met his obsidian eyes, pursed her lips without saying a word.
“Now Chaya thinks I don’t know about this and that’s why she’s blackmailing you at every turn. She thinks she can use you as a manipulable pawn, but why don’t we take advantage of the situation?”
A trick?
His thoughts coincided with hers.
“What are we going to do?”
Adriana stops holding a grudge against Sloane and decides to let go of her hatred for Sloane for a while and devote herself to the ‘battle’ with Chaya.
“Tomorrow, I’ll talk to you tomorrow after your surgery.”
“HONY?! You just said we should trust each other, why don’t you want to talk to me now?”
She pouted.
“The best trust between us is for you to rest today and go to surgery tomorrow.”
Peter took out the majesty of a domineering president and ordered her very seriously, “Lie down and rest!”
In the most domineering tone, saying the most caring words.
Help her to lie down and tuck her in before leaving the bedroom.
The moment he walked out of the bedroom and closed the door, Peter’s face suddenly turned a few degrees colder and his breath plummeted, as cold as basalt ice.
He went downstairs and went straight to the study on the second floor.
Jackson was already in the study glaring at him.
“Boss, I’ve looked into everything you asked me to look into. But McKesson Mitchell really couldn’t find any pictures of him.”
Jackson handed the information he found to Peter and looked at him with some flickering uneasiness, as if he was afraid that what he found out was limited and was reprimanded by his own boss for his incompetence.
“People leave a trail, and geese leave a trail.”
Peter took the information and went to stand in front of the mahogany table, looking down at the information in his hands.
Page by page, a glance at ten lines of sweeping through, lifting the page sounded very loud, through a strong dissatisfaction.
Jackson secretly poked a glance at his own boss that gloomy like ink face, gulped in fear.
With that, there was a snap.
Peter slammed the information down on the table, “Rubbish! You’ve been investigating for so long and you’ve only found this much? Compared to Hank, you are far worse!”
Since that time when Hank disrespected Adriana in a big way, Peter transferred Hank away and then assigned Jackson to his side.
For a long time, Peter has not been angry with Jackson, this is the first time in a long time.
No reason to be scared Jackson shivered violently, creepy.
“boss, McKesson Mitchell and Chaya no connection at all, including he came to Obren, on a fake passport to get a pass, easily into Obren. but that passport on a regular basis, no one has ever used. But that identity has a driving license, a separate registry and a bank card. I followed that identity also checked, the results …”
He spread his hands, “As you can see, only the ATM access records, wearing a duck cap, withdrawing money in a place without any monitoring equipment, where can we see the real face?”
It can be said that this McKesson Mitchell acted without any leakage, careful and cautious, absolute master.
Peter raised his hand and pinched his brow, turned somewhat impetuously and took a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet, poured two glasses and turned to hand one to Jackson.
“Hard work.”
Coldly, he said.
Jackson was flattered and shook his head like a rattle, “No, it’s not hard, it’s my subordinates who are incompetent and failed to complete your orders.”
He apologized profusely.
As Hank’s younger brother, Jackson was very aware of the gap between him and Jackson, so he was both excited and surprised at the moment Peter moved him to his side.
More than anything else, there is a bit of a lack of competence in the heart.
Despite the playfulness on the surface, he actually did his best to get things done.
“Don’t keep your eyes on just one person, but start with the person beside him.”
Peter mentioned Jackson.
Holding the glass of wine, he shook it gently, tilted his head and drank it all, “Adriana is having surgery tomorrow, go make the arrangements, I don’t want anyone else to know.”
“Yes, I’ll go and arrange it right away. By the way, at that moment Richards and William came over to see you, the young lady didn’t let them in.”
Hearing that Adriana had to have surgery, Jackson was a little sorry, but knowing how much the boss cared about the baby, he didn’t dare to say much, and could only digress.
“I went to see Celine, and maybe Richards noticed something and wanted to come over and find out what was going on.”
Before Richards arrived at Qingfeng Court called Peter, Peter said he was at Witchystems pavilion, Richards was a little unconvinced and came straight to Witchystems pavilion.
Who knew that when people arrived at the door they would be turned away by Adriana.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Then won’t the young lady let them in and let their suspicions sit?”
“It doesn’t matter whether they sit down or not, what matters is that they are not fit to come to Witchystems pavilion.”
Whether Richards or William, are not frank and gentleman, let them into the Witchystems pavilion, may refer to what will do tampering, that is the most dangerous.
