Adriana’s eyes narrowed slightly, because the head down to drink tea, so Brenden could not see her change of expression.
“Again one thing I’m curious about, why do you hate Peter so much?”
“Heh, think about it differently, what originally belongs to you is snatched away by others, you will agree?”
He meant what he said about the Alston Group.
Brenden believes in his heart that he is The Alston family ‘Brenden’, and that what Peter has now should be his.
“Fair enough.”
Adriana nodded in agreement.
Extending his cup, he said, “In lieu of tea, I’ll drink to you. May we, together, have a good time.”
“Good cooperation!”
In the evening, after sending Brenden away, Adriana opened her mailbox, downloaded the information, and checked all the information about Edward, including the family information.
Although the information is not very complete, but after reading Adriana was also shocked by Edward’s strong background of strength.
I can’t help but feel that I really won’t be Edward’s opponent, and it’s as hard as heaven to get Edward down.
But, Edward’s parents are in business, so why not use this as a breakthrough, as long as it can be done, it will definitely break Edward’s back.
At that time, how could he, a politician, interfere with her in the business world?
That is ultra vires!
The following day.
Adriana woke up on her cell phone before she even woke up.
Many What’s App messages on the phone were sent by Theresa, Sandra, Brenden and others.
None of it is about the Alston Group.
Adriana opened her phone and looked at the relevant news and information.
Peter’s attempted murder to seize the formula”, “Alston Group’s hypocrisy exposed”, “The filth behind Alston Group’s glamour! Peter took a dumb girl hostage to seize the secret formula”, “Alston Group’s stock fell”, “Alston Group’s hotel explosion followed by another storm” …
One thing after another, one thing after another, all of them are news about Alston Group.
Adriana lost sleep watching the news.
I was up late last night and didn’t fall asleep until 6am, but now I’m awake after just over an hour of sleep.
The whole person is not in a very good mental state.
Raised his hand and rubbed his brow, leaned on the bed and let out a long sigh, only to feel exhausted.
Knock Knock-
Before she could get up, there was a knock on the door outside.
Adriana got up and went to look at her dress code in front of the mirror. Because of her status, she basically slept with her makeup on and felt like her skin was in bad shape.
After ruffling her short hair in front of the mirror to make sure everything was okay, she put on her pajamas and went out.
Stood in the doorway, opened the cat’s eye and looked outside, it was The Alston family!
Knock Knock-
The knocking on the door continued.
Adriana stood behind the door and pulled it open after a moment of hesitation, “Who are you guys?”
She deliberately pretended not to recognize it.
“Mr. Boone, hello, I’m Leroy, head of The Alston family.”
Leroy introduces himself.
No one else knew Leroy, but Adriana knew him all too well.
Back then, Leroy gave her a billion dollars to leave Peter, and the matter was a sensation, so to speak, a move to make her a street rat everyone shouted.
Including the one that fell into the sea, Adriana still doesn’t know if Theresa did it or Leroy did it.
“Something wrong with Old Mr. Alston?”
Adriana originally fair skin, he deliberately smear black, in the chin also touched some black powder, at first glance, manly breath.
Except for the throat problem, it is almost impossible to see any problem to.
But as a man, some people are born without a throat knot.
“Mr. Boone, are you going to let the old man stand at the door and talk to you?”
Behind Leroy stood a butler, still the same man from four years ago, who seemed to be loyal and very much in use to the old man.
Adriana attitude indifferent, contemptuous smile, “do not want to stand at the door, why do not you wait a little longer, I go in to change clothes, and then find a cafe or tea house, it is not uncommon.”
As her words fell, Old Mr. Alston’s face visibly sank a few notches.
The dark national face then appears more gloomy like ink.
He changed his expression unpredictable, Adriana knew he was angry, but did not know what he was thinking inside and did not speculate.
“The old man came over today is Peter’s matter wants your help. I think you should have heard all about him, the police said that there is not enough evidence in this matter, and you need to provide evidence.”
Old Mr. Alston is concise and doesn’t want to talk too much.
Adriana never imagined that Old Mr. Alston would one day come to her door and ask for her, and was flattered.
“Sorry, there’s nothing that can be done.”
She decisively refused.
“I heard that Peter has cooperation with your company on shampoo, if you don’t step in to help, aren’t you afraid that your Fryer Group will be pulled down? Even if Fryer GroupRene is unharmed, your cooperation will be regarded as invalid.”
As expected of the old man, speak from a different starting position.
Adriana didn’t change her mind just because he said, “Old Mr. Alston is threatening me?”
She asked a rhetorical question, but Old Mr. Alston’s deep, bottomless eyes glowed with a shining light, but he was silent.
Adriana hesitated for a moment and then said, “You can ask me to help you. But Old Mr. Alston should know that there is no such thing as a free lunch.”
“Heh heh, young people are just quick.”
Adriana’s words certainly revealed what was on her mind, and Old Mr. Alston then asked, “Go ahead, what are your terms?”
“I’ve heard that The Alston family has a partnership with LOC, and I’ll grant you that as long as you withdraw the partnership.”
” LOC?”
Old Mr. Alston wrinkled his eyebrows slightly, resting on the cane tap hand tightened, looking back at the butler beside him, between the two eyes exchange seems to be releasing some message.
“LOC is the Henderson Family’s company, Mr. Boone is trying to get The Alston family to offend the Henderson Family? “Old Mr. Alston knew in a second that Adriana had an axe to grind with the Mr. Alston knew in a second that Adriana had an axe to grind with the Henderson Family.
Besides, he was known to him before coming here.
“No?”
Adriana asked a rhetorical question without unnecessary nonsense, and when she didn’t see Old Mr. Alston answer, she said, “Since Old Mr. Alston is not sincere, please go back.”
She turned around and went inside.
“Young man, other than that, you can mention other conditions.”
Old Mr. Alston lowered his posture.
Adriana took a step, looked back at him, and added, “The Clear Bay project, give me all of it.”
This is inevitably not promised.
Perhaps Old Mr. Alston also did not expect ‘Lawson’ would come up with such a ridiculous answer, and suddenly his face was gloomy and embarrassed, “Humph, frivolous, I don’t know what to do!”
“Yes, young and wild. Unfortunately, Old Mr. Alston no longer has the capital to be wild.”
Adriana closed the door with a bang and rejected the old man outright.
After returning to the room, Adriana took her cell phone and made acall to Harlee first.
“Xiaojiu, good morning, what’s wrong with calling me so early?”
On the other side of the phone, Harlee’s tone was gentle.
“Did you have your hands in the back of the matter with Peter?”
Adriana has a growing sense that something is fishy.
Although Brenden is said to be deliberately screwing Peter, it is not so bad that everyone comes to her for help and asks her to step in to save Peter.
And said something about her words that would get the police to let people go.
