“I’ve heard all about you.”
Sloane walks up next to Adriana, arches his back, props his elbows on the table, rests his chin, and looks at her with a tilted head.
“What is it?
Adriana’s brow furrowed as she thought to herself: Could it be that she knew she wasn’t Lawson?
“Isn’t she leaving?”
“She? Who?”
Adriana was baffled by the words in the clouds.
“Of course … oops, what kind of decent guy are you pretending to be with me, really!”
She slapped her on the chest, pretending to be pouting and whining with her voice, saying some confusing and meaty words.
Adriana questioned herself for a while, what kind of animal did she do? What did she do to make the lady in front of her lose her virginity? Fuck?
“What …”
She stammered and asked Sloane, a little short of breath.
“Gee, Lawson, what the hell!”
Sloane slapped her hard on the shoulder again and pulled his voice, “It’s just that you broke up with Anne and she’s leaving the country now? I came over to tell you, don’t be sad, there is no grass at the end of the earth, why do you need to love a single flower. Right?”
Deliberately keep close to her, elbow dislike her shoulder, the rather deep eyes and that like a mimosa smile, immediately let Adriana understand a few points.
“That … you … may have misunderstood.”
Adriana feels the need to tell Sloane who she is now.
“Misunderstand what? Lawson, you don’t understand me, or are you just playing dumb with me! I just like …”
Bang–
She was about to make her thoughts known to ‘Lawson’ when suddenly the office door pushed open.
“Miss Lindsay, you can’t … not go in, there are guests in Mr. Boone’s office, you don’t …”
The secretary made one effort to block Theresa, but she pushed her away, “Get out of the way.”
“Oops~”
Rene, the secretary, was unsteady on his feet and nearly fell over, but luckily he held the door in time.
Adriana stood up, looked at Theresa with eyes full of hostility and disdain, and waved her hand, “Rene, you go down first.”
“Yes, Mr. Boone.”
Rene nodded and turned to walk out, closing the door behind him.
Theresa’s feet on high heels, wearing a slim long down jacket, long hair pulled behind the head, two strands of curls hanging from the side of the ear, lined with black tassel earrings extra bright.
Even the delicate makeup also has a few more sexy and atmospheric.
Only those eyes were filled with anger, sweeping a glance at Adriana before her gaze settled on Sloane with a snort, “Sloane, what are you doing here?”
“I’d like to ask you, what are you doing here?”
If Theresa was with Peter, she would at least call her ‘little aunt’, but now she speaks in a rather harsh tone, which makes Sloane very upset in her heart.
“Do not like to cling to my brother every day, it is difficult that now there is more Sandra no place for you?”
She left no room for sarcasm.
“Sloane, you …”
Disliked by Sloane, Theresa’s heart is very upset, originally that day in Motril because of Eliza’s matter angered Peter, Theresa has been so resentful of Adriana, come over to pick a fight.
I never thought I would meet Sloane here.
She didn’t dare to offend Sloane, after all, she was still looking forward to getting married to Peter.
Theresa pursed her lips, walked to a side sofa, put down her bag, sat leisurely, legs folded, hands on her chest, looked at the two people over there with good grace and said, “Sloane, do you know who is standing in front of you?”
“Bullshit!”
Sloane yelled, slapping the table with one hand in anger and glaring at her angrily, “Theresa, are you picking a fight!”
Not to pick a fight, what does it mean to speak in a shady way.
Adriana raised her hand and touched her nose, thinking that Theresa was just deliberately stirring things up, just to tell Sloane her true identity and stir up anger between the two.
Solely, it is better to say it yourself.
“Sloane, I actually …”
“Lawson, you shut up, I’m going to ask Theresa now what she really wants and if she still wants to marry my brother.”
Sloane interrupted Adriana with a wave of his hand and walked over to Theresa, “You wouldn’t have taken a shine to Lawson and moved on, would you?”
She wrinkled her eyebrows, looked Theresa up and down, and stared at her with a few gloomy eyes, as if she was looking at a love interest.
“Ho ho ho, fancy Lawson?”
Theresa glanced at Adriana and covered her lips with a smile, “Sloane, you are so naive. Do you know who ‘Lawson’ really is? She’s a woman, dressed as a man, and you can’t tell?”
“Bullshit, what woman dressed as a man, are you doubting my intelligence?”
She exploded with anger and some displeasure.
“Of course your intelligence is fine, because you are not the only one who has been cheated.” She lifted the curls at her temples, twirled them around her fingertips, and said with interest, “For the sake of our good relationship, I’ll tell you the truth, and save you the trouble of being left in the dark. She is Adriana!”
said, immediately adding, “Luis and Helen’s real mommy!”
That means, probably afraid that Sloane can’t remember who Adriana really is the same.
“Adriana?”
Sloane looked astonished, and suddenly a cold snort came out between his nostrils, “What a joke, Adriana has long been dead, I’m afraid even the ashes are gone now.”
When everyone knew that Adriana fell into the deep sea and died, how could she still be alive.
She might believe it if she said it was someone else, but to say Lawson was Adriana was categorically impossible.
Adriana didn’t expect Sloane to be so persistent, and despite the unpleasant words, she knew her fiery character and didn’t want to continue hiding it, so she said, “I, that’s Adriana.”
“You’re Adriana?”
She looked back at ‘Lawson’ and slammed a fist into her chest, “Lawson, when did you have fun fooling me with Theresa’s wolf.”
Adriana: “…”
The truth was told and she didn’t believe it.
There is no cure.
“Who told you I was dead?”
Adriana stopped pretending and conversed with her in her characteristic, very nice female voice, “I’ve always wanted to explain to you, but I didn’t have the right opportunity.”
A familiar voice, although many years have passed, Sloane can still hear her voice.
The smiling face gradually gloomed, “Are you … really Adriana?”
He came a few minutes closer and looked at her carefully, as if he could not yet accept the sudden reality.
Adriana’s brow peaked in awe, and slowly hung her head, pursing her lips, “Theresa is telling the truth.”
From the beginning, Adriana also did not want to deceive Sloane, just that she needed to conceal her identity and did not say so.
Instead, she now finds with the benefit of hindsight to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
Maybe …
It’s pretty serious.
“Say that again?”
Sloane grabbed her by the collar and yanked hard, his anger rising.
