“Little follower? What do you mean?”
Adriana didn’t understand what Anne’s words meant and was a bit puzzled.
“Harlee called me and offered me a pretty good position. In the future, be your little sidekick, assistant. How’s that?”
She patted her chest with a look of great righteousness.
“Are you kidding me?”
Adriana didn’t feel happy about herself, instead her face sank a few notches, “Why did you come back when you were doing so well at Hale Cobb Law Firm?”
And be her assistant?
As far as she knows, Hale Cobb Law Firm now has annual revenues of over $100 million, and Anne is so strong that there is absolutely no need for her to be her assistant.
It simply doesn’t make sense.
“Ouch, what’s wrong? I I gave up everything to be your assistant, and you’re still not happy about it?”
Anne patted her shoulder, “That’s what’s wrong with you. At least I’m now a big boss with over a billion dollars, but with you it’s a commission.”
She smiled, leaned down and picked up the flowers on the floor, pushed Adriana out of the way and walked straight into the living room.
Adriana had met Anne long before and everything was arranged by Harlee.
In the dark, Adriana felt that Harlee must be plotting something, but she didn’t want to ask more questions and had to comply.
Because …
Back then on the island, Harlee told her one more thing.
That is, every person who goes to the island will take a colorless and tasteless medicine, if you do not take the antidote in time will be poisoned and die, bleeding from the seven orifices.
It was Obren’s secret drug, and only Harlee had the antidote in her hands.
Adriana had disobeyed Harlee and felt the poisoning herself, and since then, she has completely obeyed.
But Harlee didn’t treat her badly and gave her the best of everything.
Adriana didn’t struggle, not really to die, but to see what Harlee wanted to do in the end!
She turned and looked at Anne who had walked into the living room, her arms around her chest, leaning against the door frame, “That’s exactly why I don’t want you following me. Understand?”
It is clear that he is already the president of a large company, but instead he has lowered his status to be her assistant.
For the sake of reason, neither!
“Where do you get off talking so much?”
Anne gave her a blank look, walked to the sofa and sat down, crossed her legs, took out a cigarette case from her bag and pulled out a cigarette, lit it, held it in her flaming red lips and took a hard puff.
“Hoo~”
Swallowing a cloud between her lips, she eyed Adriana, “What I, Anne, have decided no one can change.”
“Anne, stop it. You should know what I am doing this time back? You are my good girl friend, better than a sister, and have been kind to me. I am sure to meet Theresa in Waverly in the future, and I don’t want to ruin the relationship between you because I am doing it.”
“Are you annoyed that I don’t know what Theresa is? I don’t care what she is, I just want to be with you.”
“I …”
“You what you? I’m tired and want to sleep.”
Without looking at Adriana, Anne got up, went straight to her bedroom, and then heard the sound of water dripping from inside.
Adriana: “…”
“Hey, how are you going to change your clothes if you don’t even have a curtsy?”
So anxious to go to the bathroom, do not take the clothes how to change the wash.
“Hello, is this Lawson? We are **Moving Company and here is your stuff.”
Just heard the elevator in the hallway suddenly rang, Adriana looked back and saw several workers in moving company uniforms carrying over five or six boxes, large and small.
“Who’s …”
The mouth subconsciously asked a question, then looked back in the direction of the bedroom, listening to the sound of water coming from inside, has understood.
“All right, you guys move in.”
Helplessly shook his head, it seems that this time Anne is really determined to be her assistant.
The movers brought the stuff in and left.
While Anne was still in the shower, Adriana instantly dialed Harlee.
Beep beep beep, the phone rang for a while and someone finally answered it.
“What is it?”
“Harlee, what the hell do you want? Anne is doing fine abroad, why do you want her to come back? Is that interesting?”
Who is not good enough to let her help?
The preference is to have a boss who is worth over a billion dollars as her assistant.
Adriana doesn’t find herself unable to accept it, but because the Harlee conspiracy is too deep and she is afraid of involving Anne in the whirlwind.
“My word, you just have to do it. Adriana, I’ll tell you again, I won’t harm you.”
On the other end of the phone, Harlee explained in a serious voice.
“Oh, it won’t hurt me? Harlee, don’t talk so much to the face, okay? When I was sent to the island, it was you who gave me the poison personally, thanks to you, what are you pretending to be a big tail?”
Hypocritical as hell man.
Adriana is inexplicably disgusted with Harlee.
“Hale Cobb Law Firm, I have hired top international business management talent to take care of it, to ensure a certain income, otherwise, all the losses I pay myself. anne follows you, I pay half a million dollars a month, you think, where do I treat her wrongly?”
The words and actions are enough to see Harlee’s generosity.
“Yes, you said so much clearly want to say that you have done a loss-making business yourself. But according to your nature, how can you give away so much profit? What exactly is your purpose?”
This question has been asked of Harlee countless times.
But every time she couldn’t get an answer, leaving her helpless.
“Adriana, you’ve said too much today. Remember your identity, Lawson! Don’t reveal it, or else, you know the consequences.”
“If you hadn’t told Anne and Alvin, how could they have known who I was?”
“Waverly time, it’s nine o’clock. It’s time for you to get some rest, a hard battle starts tomorrow and I hope you’re ready.”
After saying that, the other party directly hung up the phone.
Adriana looked at the string of cell phone numbers displayed on the screen, without saving the names of the people.
This is her usual way and means now, discreetly protecting her identity.
But, one can’t help but feel angry at Harlee’s approach.
“Who are you talking to on the phone?”
Not long after, Anne came out, wearing the robe Adriana had put in the bathroom to change, holding a towel to wipe her short hair that was dripping water.
“It’s okay.”
Adriana shook her head and pointed to her suitcase, “You can sleep in the east room. No wonder I was given a two-room house, so there was an ulterior motive.”
She let out a sigh.
“Eh, Lawson, I don’t like what you’re saying. How come it sounds like you don’t even like me? Huh?”
Anne was a little upset.
“Didn’t mean that.”
“I see it there.”
“OK, OK, OK, whatever you say.”
Adriana really can’t help Anne’s straightforward nature, but although her name is very kawaii, but her personality is straightforward and bold, including the attire are a few men’s model.
Having spent many years with her, Adriana knows her nature well and naturally does not take it into account.
“All right, you hurry up and rest. There’s still a lot to do tomorrow.”
