During this time, Adriana was injured and both Anne and Vivian were in the hospital with her or taking care of the two children.
This also delayed their plans to go abroad.
Adriana rested in the hospital for half a month before being discharged.
During this time, Peter actually did not have to visit Adriana, really broke her heart again and again.
So much so, that no trace of emotion is left behind.
Only every day she dreamed of Peter, of that man by her side, sleeping with her.
Every time Naive opened his eyes, there was no one beside him.
She repeatedly asked Aaren if anyone came in and out of the room after she fell asleep, and the answer was no.
Adriana mentally mocked herself for her dead heart.
It is clear that such a man, even if there is love, should also be cut off.
Because Adriana used special medication to speed up the healing process, she was able to move around freely after being discharged from the hospital without adding too much stress to herself.
“Things are packed, let’s go.”
Vivian and Aaren helped Adriana carry her things, and Anne went to Adriana’s side to support her.
“I’m not that spoiled. ”
She brushed Anne’s hand away, “It’s not that much of a stretch, I can walk on my own.”
“It’s not because I’m worried about you. Come on, let’s go back.”
Anne grinned, pulled Adriana with her, and several people left the ward and took the elevator down one floor.
Waiting for them to walk outside the door of the first floor lobby, they stopped in their tracks.
Looking at the scene outside, one can’t help but jaws smacking.
Eight Maybachs were parked in the open area outside the lobby on the first floor, and a dozen men in suits, wearing sunglasses and white gloves, lined up side by side in unison.
There were a number of reporters who were blocked from a short distance and took pictures one after another.
The battle was particularly grand, with great fanfare, attracting a lot of attention to take pictures, making Adriana fall into the spotlight for a while.
Old Mr. Soto and Harlee approached.
“Are you better, girl? It’s grandpa’s fault for making you suffer. ”
Old Mr. Soto walked up to Adriana and smiled kindly and amiably, “Grandpa knows that you have just recovered, so he has prepared a light and nutritious lunch for you in the kitchen.”
“Yes, grandpa knows you are discharged from the hospital today, so he specially prepared and rushed over to take you home.”
Harlee chimed in.
The old man was dressed in a thick Tang suit and wore glasses, giving him a very affable feeling.
And Harlee is dressed up today, her hair is well-groomed, her blue suit is extraordinarily handsome and radiant.
It seems to have been dressed up to welcome her home.
Not far away stood several other men men.
Old Mr. Soto waved toward them, and the men came forward.
“Come, girl, let me introduce to you. This is your Uncles. and this is your eldest uncle’s son, your cousin, he, he, and he, are your cousin cousins. You …”
The old man warmly introduced Adriana to the strangers he was meeting for the first time, hoping to foster a relationship between them.
But Adriana looked at those people, did not give birth to a little good feeling, but feel very resistant.
Sinking a face, not willing to play along, “Grandpa, I’m a little tired and want to go back to rest.”
“Alas, well, well, it’s grandpa’s lack of thoughtfulness. You still have injuries in your body now, hurry back.”
The old man nodded and greeted Harlee as she went over to support her.
Adriana, however, took Anne’s hand as soon as she could, “I’m used to living over at the apartment and won’t be going back for a while.”
He refused Old Mr. Soto in public and brushed him off.
Old Mr. Soto’s face sank, and some streams of light flashed under his eyes, “Adri, any time you pander to me is fine, but today you must come back to the Soto family with me.”
This time is different.
The Soto family publishes Adriana’s identity to the public, and if Adriana returns to her apartment today just after being released from the hospital, it would be a denial of the fact that she is back with the Soto family.
Then the Soto family has lost a lot of face in Waverly.
“Adri ah, you see grandpa has come to pick you up, let’s go back.”
“Yeah, right.”
“Don’t be grumpy, you as a junior can’t disobey it.”
“A large family came to pick you up, how can not brush off the face of the old man, if not, how can we the Soto family still see people in the future.”
“That’s it, that’s it.”
…
The crowd was either blaming Adriana or discussing the face of the Soto family.
Adriana felt a headache listening to which questions.
Looking at those people also feel hypocritical to the extreme.
If I were to go back to the Soto family, I would still have to deal with these people every day.
It’s exhausting to think about.
But …
“Okay, I’ll go back with you.”
As much as Adriana wanted to refuse, there was no turning back now, and if she didn’t go back to the Soto family, then there was no guarantee for both Luis and Helen.
If it was in the past, she might not care about everything.
But now that she knows the truth, how can Adriana sit back and wait?
“Adri?!”
The person who is most happy about Adriana’s return to the Soto family should be Harlee.
He smiled in relief and walked up to hug her, “Sister, you’re finally willing to come back.”
Adriana was a little uncomfortable with Harlee’s sudden hug and frowned, “That hurts.”
“Oh, sorry, it hurts you. Forgot, forgot you had an injury.”
Harlee immediately sent Adriana away and took her hand to the car.
A group of people also got into the car, a clear Maybach slowly started, followed closely by the departure of the.
Top luxury cars, lined up in rows, drive down the streets of Waverly, forming a unique landscape.
After half an hour, we arrived at the Soto Residence.
The Soto is built on a wide and majestic area near the lake. Although it is not as luxurious and noble as Orchard House, the restrained Chinese style decoration is no less luxurious and more elegant.
Entering the villa, in the center is a striking musical fountain with two dragons playing pearls.
Because of Adriana’s appearance today, all the servants and house servants in the villa gathered together, side by side in several rows, standing on either side.
Adriana was accompanied by Old Mr. Soto and Harlee by her side.
The old man took her hand, walked to the fountain pool, turned to look at the servants, and said, “To introduce to you all in a grand manner, this is Adriana, the daughter of the oldest three, Harlee’s sister.”
“Hello Miss!”
The sound of the flush, high-pitched and loud, invisible through the momentum.
“Listen to me clearly, from today onwards, all give me put smart, from now on Adri said what you do, not to disobey, or you will have to look good!”
“Yes, Master!!!”
Dozens of servants bowed respectfully and agreed in a loud voice.
“Well, well, what are you freezing for, it’s cold, Adri just came out of the hospital, it’s better to go inside and talk.”
To one side, a woman warned.
Adriana knows that person, the Soto family boss’s daughter-in-law, has a certain status in the Soto family, except for Old Mr. Soto, she and her husband speak with the most authority.
But that man gave Adriana the first impression that it was not a good thing.
Adriana can only turn a blind eye and try to be as good as she can.
