“No need for you to explain, I do things you still do not rest assured, no problem.”
“Listen carefully, from now on, don’t leave Vivian every inch. now Edward is in Floedan, you have to keep Vivian safe, otherwise people are missing, next time you don’t know when you can find Vivian.”
She was really worried about Vivian’s situation.
“Got it Adri, don’t worry too much. You take care of yourself too.”
“I don’t need you to care, just be safe yourselves.”
…
She hung up the phone and walked out of the bedroom to the smell of delicious food.
I have to say, the fresh aroma is really tempting, but there is no appeal to her at all.
“Come over for dinner.”
Peter waved to Adriana, “There’s no telling when the rainstorm will stop outside, and several of the main roads are flooded and impassable for cars, so there’s no way to leave now.”
He told ‘Lawson’ the truth about the current situation, intentionally in stabilizing her.
Adriana glanced out the window and the pouring rain formed a curtain that obscured the view and made it impossible to see ahead.
How could Vivian leave in this bad weather, when it was hard to move an inch?
It was a difficult time for Raylan.
“Hmm.”
She responded and walked over to the table to dine with both Peter.
The man picked up the sober and poured a glass of red wine for her, “Some things go with the flow, don’t force it. But one thing I promise you, within a month, I guarantee Vivian’s safety.”
“A month?”
Adriana was overjoyed, not expecting Peter to be willing to help her.
This should be considered the best case scenario.
“But I have a request.”
He added.
At that, Adriana’s face instantly sank a few points, lazily raised her eyelids and gave him a blank look, “Say something straight.”
“Come with me to that old Chinese doctor and talk about cooperation.”
He held a goblet in his hand, his long fingers gently shook the red wine, took a light sip and said.
Adriana listened to his words without answering directly, but picked up a fork and cut the steak, filling her mouth with a slow chew, savoring the juicy and delicious steak.
Although it is said that there is no appetite, but that bite of top quality steak into the belly, the excellent taste still evoked the cravings in the belly, could not help but eat a few more bites.
“I knew you wouldn’t hold back anything good.”
Adriana muttered, “As long as you can safely escort Vivian out of the country, I promise you everything.”
The most difficult problem now is the matter of Vivian, other than that, everything is not a problem.
“Also, can you find a way to get me to Vivian?”
“No!”
Peter refused in one breath, “The weather bureau issued a rainstorm warning, there will be heavy rainfall behind, the road surface water is serious, it is not possible to say what will be the situation behind. You should honestly stay here now, including Vivian, can not leave for the time being.”
Bang!
Adriana slapped her fork on the table and said angrily: “Then what? Although the rainstorm outside is incessant, but Edward therefore can not leave Floedan, how can you guarantee Vivian’s safety? Unless you come with me now to find Vivian, I personally watch her to believe you!”
Although just repeatedly admonished Raylan and Anne, but Adriana in the end coveted Edward’s power, dare not underestimate.
Peter thick ink sword eyebrows slightly wrinkled, a glance at the window of the rainstorm, soft voice: “Do not make a scene, life shall not be child’s play.”
That sentence was quite heartwarming. Adriana was harboring fire in her heart and was anxious to get to Vivian, but hearing Peter’s words instantly extinguished the burning anger.
With a helpless sigh, “So be it.”
Edward and Peter are good brothers, a Vivian, it is not so much for Edward to turn against Peter, so as long as Peter asked, Edward should be released.
That’s what she thought to herself.
The two sat across from each other and ate in silence, no one speaking.
Finished with the meal, Adriana put down the knife and fork, heavy heartedly went to the window, looking at the rain non-stop heavy rain road has accumulated a lot of water, even the sewer mouth are constantly gushing upward.
The drainage system is not ideal to the extent that water accumulates heavily.
Now the rain is too heavy, there is no trend to stop, this situation does not know how long it will continue.
“Do you know how to play chess? Come here and play chess with me.”
The man thought for a moment and said.
“Not in the mood.”
She rejected it outright.
“In this kind of weather, even if the Fryer Group collapses, it will be difficult for you to go back. It’s better to settle down and wait slowly.”
His words still make perfect sense.
Adriana thought about it and finally reluctantly responded.
Peter called the front desk and in a short time a waiter brought up the chess board.
The man pointed to the board and asked, “You choose first, white or black?”
Adriana has no interest in playing chess, except that Jenkins liked to play back then, so she watched and learned some of the basics.
“Shirazi.”
She picks up the white piece and places it straight in the very middle of the board.
The man followed with a black piece, and Adriana played another white piece directly and quickly, without thinking at all.
“Fickle.”
The man muttered silently.
“Love to play or not to play.”
Adriana teased and continued to play.
As expected, it was only a few moments of playing against Peter, and he was already killed in battle.
Angry, she threw the pieces in her hand on the board, “No more, I won’t, it’s not fun.”
Now all I can think about is Vivian’s departure, so I’m still in the mood to play chess with Peter.
“You’re a man, why don’t you have any character at all?”
The man raised his eyes, a disgusted look thrown over.
Adriana gave him a disdainful blank look, “What does it matter to you, Mr. Alston is not too broad-minded?”
“You …”
Peter held a black piece in his hand, looked at her expressionlessly, shook his head, just like a ‘rotten wood can not be carved also’ look.
“Don’t tell me so much, and I don’t want to hear it.”
She got up, went to the window, looked at the rainstorm non-stop, couldn’t help a sigh, “How come it suddenly rained heavily? Peter, can you call and ask Edward where he is?”
Unable to determine Edward’s exact location, Adriana was still unsure.
I was afraid that the scum-like man would go after Vivian.
“Play a serious game of chess with me, and I’ll play.”
The man spoke slowly and leisurely.
Adriana snapped back and a harsh gaze shot straight at her, “You fight, and I’ll play chess with you. Otherwise, no deal.”
Peter laughed at her words and snorted lightly, “You’re begging me, and this is your attitude?”
“I … you …”
When he said that, Adriana thought it made sense.
Raised an eyebrow, cheeks flashed a little embarrassed breath, but still pretended to be calm, “fight or not to fight with you.”
“Why does it sound as if you’re spooning with me?”
Peter flicked his thumb and the black pieces in his hand flew into the flag box, he slowly took his phone and dialed Edward’s number.
