“Be a man of conscience, I Theresa loved you for so many years, what have you Peter given me? Saying that you will give me compensation. Is this what you call compensation?”
Such compensation is really beyond her ability to bear.
By Theresa this accusation, Peter wrinkled his eyebrows, face like frost, cold air.
“Is it wrong to love someone? It’s you, you’re the one who walked up to me in the first place and approached me with every intention.”
Theresa walked up to Peter, her tear-stained eyes staring unblinkingly at the man in front of her, and raised her hand to poke him in the chest, “If you hadn’t been so bent on getting close to me, I wouldn’t have fallen in love so deeply that it would have become unbearable.”
Love someone, that’s it.
Once you fall in love, you can not extricate yourself.
Peter’s wrinkled eyebrows deepened a few points, “Theresa, emotional matters can not be controlled, not to mention can not be forced. Now the only person I like in my heart is Adri, if I really get together with you, it will only harm you, do you understand?”
He was grateful to Theresa for what happened back then and had promised to stay with her, but when he thought about it, if he really stayed with Theresa, a marriage without feelings would be painful for anyone.
He could not choose to be with her for his own selfish reasons.
“Harm me?”
She covered her face and laughed, her smile was as hideous and fearful as it could be, raising her hand to poke her chest, “What about now, isn’t it harming me now? You caused me to like you, to fall deeply in love, to think about you every day and night, to think about you all day long, didn’t you ever consider me?”
Peter was silent, he could never be ruthless with Theresa.
He was a man who knew what he was doing, and if he did something assholeish to Theresa now, how would he be able to live up to the fact that she had saved his life.
“Theresa, learn to let go and start a new life. I’m sure there are many people who like you and you can find the one who loves you more.”
The hostility between Peter’s eyebrows gradually dissipated, raised his hand and pulled out his wallet from his pocket, taking out a bank card, “This card is for you, there are three hundred million inside, as your own compensation. In the future, if you have any needs, just ask, I will do my best to help you.”
He added, “The only thing that I cannot touch is Adriana, and I hope you understand that.”
“Three hundred million?”
Theresa looked down at the gold card in his hand, and her flaming red lips gradually raised in a contemptuous and sarcastic arc, “In order to let me go, in order to make room for Adriana, Mr. Alston, you’re really generous.”
Three hundred million, is countless people who have worked hard all their lives to earn the money, but Peter did not ask directly to her three hundred million.
It’s really generous.
“Just let me know if you need anything in the future.”
Peter didn’t want to dwell on the topic just now and said in a cold voice, “Go out, I have some things to take care of.”
If he continues to confront Theresa, he might not even give her 300 million.
In recent times, Theresa has done things that he knows very well and that time and again are challenging his bottom line and are unforgivable.
“Money, I don’t need.”
Theresa placed the bank card on Peter’s desk and her indifferent eyes fell on his, “I want you to feel guilty, to feel guilty for the rest of your life, to be unable to make up for it.”
Think you can make up for everything by giving money?
Impossible.
Her Theresa’s family is not rich, but they are not short of money either.
So, she decided not to want Peter’s money and stay in his hands, which was the only way to keep Peter’s last debt to her.
“Wei Wei, you …”
Peter’s face sank and he did not speak again.
Theresa turned and left.
As he walked to the door, Peter added, “Sit in the hall for a moment while I have the family doctor treat your wound.”
“It’s not necessary.”
Theresa’s heart sank to the bottom, cold to the bone, the moment she pulled open the door, she said: “Mr. Alston this slap to give a sweet date skills I have learned.”
Saying that, the person has left the study.
Standing in the doorway of the study, Theresa closed the door and closed her eyes, letting the tears come out without a fight.
“Adriana, you gave me hope and destroyed it with your own hands. From today onwards, I, Theresa, and you, are at odds.”
She murmured in a deep voice, blaming all the hatred on Adriana.
In the room, Adriana sneezes, holds the book in her hand, and lies down on the bed to read quietly.
Not long after, Peter pushed in the door and walked in, looking at her sitting on the bed with a clear smile, “Why don’t you rest for a while?”
“Lying down is resting.”
How much more rest.
“The doctor said you should stay in bed more often because your foot injury is not yet healed, instead of letting you lie in bed and read a book. You are so easy to be all relaxed now, why don’t you know how to clear your mind?”
Sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at the small woman leaning on the bed, the white cheeks with a little red, look very good, eyebrows, giving a sweet and lovely sense of sight.
His palm involuntarily covered her cheek, Adriana first moved her cheek to move away, but Peter’s hand had already landed on the skin.
Solely no longer struggle.
“Adri, you’ve suffered a lot in recent times, you’ve lost a lot of weight. Tell me what you want to eat and I’ll have the kitchen make it.”
He asked.
The pair of black as ink pupils are full of deep love and doting.
“No appetite.”
Adriana shakes her head.
“Is it because of … Theresa?”
From the time Theresa appeared at the villa to the time he went to Theresa to talk about things, Adriana clearly knew everything, but didn’t say a word about it.
Peter is a person who is afraid of trouble and hates to have people pay too much attention to his affairs, but at this moment, Adriana is his fiancée, when facing his rival, she did so calmly and unquestioningly, but let Peter disappointed.
Is it that she doesn’t care? Or does she believe in him in her heart?
Obviously, it should be the first one.
“No.”
Adriana shook her head, for Peter’s attitude is still indifferent with aloof, deliberately pulling the distance between the two, even if Peter tried hard to get closer, but also in vain.
The inexplicable feeling of powerlessness hit Peter hard.
“It’s still a few hours before Luis and Helen get out of school, so how about I take you down to the movies?” There is always nothing to do, so why not spend some quality time with Adriana?
“A movie?”
Hearing Peter’s words, her dull eyes were tinged with some starbursts, only for a moment, her pupils returned to silence and she shook her head, “No.”
The change of expression at that moment fell on Peter’s eyes, and he clearly found that Adriana was very interested, yet sensibly refused.
Peter slanted into the temples of the eyebrows frowned slightly, said the sense of helplessness.
“Adri…”
“Hmm?”
The little woman looked up at him with a clear look in her eyes.
“I …”
Peter once again wanted to say something, there are a thousand words in his heart, to the mouth but do not know how to speak.
Abruptly, got up, “You sit for a while, I’ll go to the study to start a video conference.”
