He raised a hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth and asked, “Where is Adriana?”
“Where is it? How dare you ask where she is? You …”
Alvin clutched Peter’s collar tightly. This was the first time the two brothers had seen the gentle, gentle man angry in front of them.
But Peter didn’t get angry and didn’t fight back.
Alvin shrugged off Peter, a little panic surfaced on his pale face, “You didn’t find Adriana?”
“No.”
Then, aside Edward said: “The police salvaged at the scene and in the sea, and did not find Adriana. so we all thought Adriana and you were taken away by the bandits.”
Alvin’s fists were clenched, his teeth clenched, and a pair of teary scarlet eyes shot a glance around the two men.
The appalling gaze pierced Peter’s heart deeply, and his wrinkled brow deepened a few points, “You mean, Adriana fell into the sea?”
His voice was weak and feeble, with his own uncontrollable pain and trembling.
“Peter, you’re going to regret this.”
Alvin said with tears in his eyes, glanced at the phone Edward was holding, grabbed it, dialed a series of phone numbers, and ordered: “Now send all forces to the coast to look for Adriana. I want you to send out everyone and search all day. If you don’t find anyone, don’t ever give me a break. Now, immediately, now!”
A piece of information was imprinted on Peter’s mind that Adriana had fallen into the sea and the body could not be found until now.
From noon yesterday to now, twenty hours have passed, and people are still not found!
Peter’s mind suddenly flashed to a moment when he was inlove with Adriana, he said: Adri, stay, give me and the children a home, okay?
She said: I’ll think about it.
Just one image, but it pulled at his heart and hurt so much that he couldn’t breathe.
Peter did not stay, immediately left the hospital, at the same time called and ordered down, the whole staff looking for Adriana.
On this day, Waverly mobilized five hundred people to search for Adriana on the coast, sending out as many as two hundred search and rescue boats, and the number of people is growing.
The following day, the news broke the big news that Adriana had commissioned her lawyer to donate one billion to the Angel Foundation yesterday.
Once the news was exposed, it caused a huge uproar, and many people lamented that Adriana is indifferent to fame and fortune and has a good heart, and is a rare and good woman. With the previous day on the news after the exposure of the spray of a very different argument, have been hit in the face.
The most volatile person would be Peter, who has extremely mixed feelings and does not understand what kind of woman Adriana really is.
Three days later.
The team of searchers has reached as many as a thousand people, but there is still no news about Adriana.
A week later, Adriana’s body was found a few kilometers away along the coast.
And at this time, Adriana’s body has been soaked swollen simply can not see the model, the skin has been gnawed by the fish part, look quite cruel and horrible.
The only way to tell that it was Adriana was by the earrings in her ears, her short hair, her clothes and her backpack.
Alvin saw the one body and jumped right over, holding her tightly in his arms.
“Adri? Adri? I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I didn’t protect you.”
Alvin held the limp corpse in his arms, and with a little effort, he was able to rub his skin in a disgusting state, but he didn’t care.
He knelt there and hugged her for a long time, saying sorry all the time.
And aside, Peter watched everything in silence, his eyes deep and complex.
The cold, knife-like face had been tightly wrinkled together, eyes unblinkingly looking at the corpse.
No one knew what he was thinking and what he was feeling.
Peter only knows that he is in heartache and cannot say what it is like.
He wanted to go and hug the woman, but he couldn’t feel his strong love for her.
As they say, he loves her almost to the point of obsession and can do anything for her.
Peter tries hard to remember what they were and what they used to be, but in the end he can’t feel anything.
Only the tears that couldn’t help but overflow from the eyes, wetting his face, placed in the pocket of his pants hand clenched tightly.
Because wearing black suit pants, so no one noticed a flood of inconspicuous blood stained his pants.
He clenched his fist and sunk it deep directly into his palm, gouging out the blood, but Peter couldn’t feel it, he couldn’t feel anything.
Like a walking corpse.
I don’t know how long it took, but Peter turned away and gave Hank a call, “Go immediately and get me all the videos of me and Adriana, I want … all of them!”
“Yes, boss.”
Hank did not ask the reason and went straight to the mission.
Back at the office, Hank had sent a portion of the video to Peter.
In the office, Peter turned on his computer and watched the video content
The first video, is he and Theresa two engagement ceremony, Adriana appeared, Theresa drunk, she handed him the drinking drunk Theresa, and told him: cherish Theresa, she is a good girl.
The second video, from the garage of the engagement hotel, is of Adriana smashing the window of the car to save Luis.
In the third video, he goes to her Hale Cobb Law Firm and, in gratitude, gives her the Alston Group contract.
…
A video, Peter did not fast-forward, a little bit to see the end.
He was trying to find things about Adriana through these videos, trying to find ‘love’ for her, nay, he couldn’t feel anything.
Hank’s videos were sent one by one, and those videos filled a USB.
From the morning to watch again, see late at night, Hank reminded him to go home, he did not pay attention.
Theresa called to inquire and he turned off his phone.
Peter spent five days and five nights watching all the videos at a speed of one point five times.
In the video, he could feel his love for Adriana gradually emerge, Peter tried his best to find that feeling, but in the end, he could not find that heart thumping strong love.
Numbness, there is no feeling except numbness.
He couldn’t feel what love is, couldn’t feel the woman’s smile to make him feel good, couldn’t feel the woman crying, his heart gripping pain, couldn’t feel the relief and satisfaction when holding her.
Peter tried his best, but the more he tried, the less he could find the feelings he needed.
Bang–
Peter got angry and got up and smashed the computer directly in front of him, throwing the USB directly into the trash.
Angrily, he left the office.
A few minutes later, the office door opened.
One went to the trash can, leaned down and picked up the USB and held it tightly in his hand.
“Adriana, have I ever loved you? Love, what is it?”
He looked at the USB inside his palm and fell into endless pain.
What is that feeling?
It is clear that you love someone and know that you love them.
Naive, can’t find that love fluttering and deer in the headlights, looking at her face, but as if seeing a person who has nothing to do with it.
Cold, rusty, without any emotion.
When Peter left the company to inquire about Adriana’s whereabouts, he received the news that Adriana had been cremated and buried.
He bought a bouquet of flowers and showed up at Adriana’s grave.
Found Alvin still standing there.
A few days ago, Alvin was disheveled, disheveled, unkempt and unkempt.
“Why don’t you know to get some rest?”
