As he spoke, Alvin burped and reached out to cover his chest with some difficulty, perhaps because of too much wine.
Then added: “My mother she holds Brenda in her heart, she … she is worried that Brenda will not donate bone marrow to my brother, then my brother … he only waits for death. Do you understand?”
It has come to this, how can Adriana not understand.
So Alvin did not want to marry Brenda, even if Brenda scandal out, The Grant Family people mind is very clear, but for the future of theireldest son Spencer, they can only use Alvin’s marriage as Brenda for Spencer donor bone marrow bargaining chip.
To put it bluntly, Alvin is the sacrificial lamb.
Adriana’s heart sank, finally understanding why Brenda was so confident.
She collected her eyebrows and sat on the sofa, somewhat annoyed, taking a sip from the bottle of wine Alvin had left on the table.
A relief from the worries of the heart.
“You know all about Brenda?”
She asked in a soft voice.
“Hmm.”
Alvin nodded, his eyes flickering as he gazed at the bottle clutched in Adriana’s hand.
“Your brother can’t find a bone marrow donor right now?”
“My mother and I were unsuccessful in matching with my brother, and only my father was successful in matching with my brother. But he is in his sixties, has some health problems and is not healthy, and the hospital did not recommend my father to donate bone marrow for my brother.”
Despite the fact that Alvin drank a lot of wine, he was still thinking clearly and did not get drunk like Chengdu.
With poor health in their sixties, the hospital certainly would not support them in donating bone marrow.
“You guys at The Grant Family are so rich, how could you possibly … with a heavy reward?”
“It’s not easy to find them, they are AB blood type, which is not that easy to find. Not to mention that bone marrow matching requires not only a match of AB blood type system but also a basic agreement of HLA system.”
Alvin sighed, very helpless, but where there are other ways, it would not be in this situation.
Adriana was speechless, not knowing what to say.
Across the board, it is now not caused by her recommending a Brenda to Alvin. Rather, it’s because Spencer is seriously ill and needs bone marrow.
But the world is so big and yet so small, and by coincidence Brenda was a perfect match for Spencer’s bone marrow.
What else could she say?
Is it hard to let Alvin ignore his brother’s life and death?
That’s never going to happen, Alvin is not that kind of person.
The man sitting beside him has his palm over his forehead, resting on the sofa, not knowing what he is thinking.
Adriana frowned sadly, “You … just don’t really have any other options?”
That would be unfair to Alvin.
He shook his head and did not speak.
“Haven’t eaten yet, have you? I’m hungry, can you go out with me to have some dinner?” Adriana changed the subject, not wanting to continue talking about this with Alvin.
Because she knew Alvin had been drinking all night and must not have eaten.
Alvin didn’t say anything.
Adriana walked over and lifted her foot and kicked his leg, “Didn’t you hear me?”
“Dizzy~”
The man said.
Adriana wrinkled her eyebrows, really can’t help Alvin, pick up her bag, smoothly tug his arm on her shoulder, “Come on, I’ll help you back.”
How can you eat when you’re so drunk?
“I don’t … want to go back.”
“Then go to my house.”
Said to go to Adriana’s house and Alvin didn’t say anything else.
Help him get up and walk outside, just a few steps, the compartment door suddenly opened, “Alvin? Alvin, you … Adriana, why are you here?”
Adriana stood there, seeing Brenda barging in, and Peter standing behind her, and her brow knitted deeper.
Without waiting for her to speak, Brenda stepped forward, “Don’t bother, I’ll take Alvin back.”
Took Alvin from Adriana and put him on his shoulder.
Alvin struggled a few times, “Don’t need you, go … away.”
“Alvin, stop it, our mom is worried about you, I’m coming to pick you up.”
Brenda was distressed to see him drunk.
Put her on her shoulders and carefully walk towards the outside, “Slowly, let’s go back, drink so much your stomach must be uncomfortable, I’ll go back and make you some porridge.”
She mentions Alvin’s mother, and Alvin instead doesn’t struggle anymore.
There is a sense of frustration of resignation but having to resign oneself to fate.
The two men left, and so did the bodyguard guarding the door.
Adriana glanced at Peter, wondering how he could be with Brenda.
But on second thought, according to Brenda’s current relationship with Alvin, it’s normal for her to contact Peter if she can’t find Alvin.
After all, with Peter’s ability, there’s no one in Waverly he can’t find.
Retracting his gaze, he walked around Peter and left.
“How did you end up with Alvin?”
Peter asked as he followed her.
Adriana didn’t say anything.
“Alvin has been drinking excessively lately and has already had two stomach bleeds, you’re doing him a disservice.” The man said again.
Adriana certainly does not take the blame for the trumped-up charges.
Stopping abruptly and turning around …
The man behind her stepped forward just in time, and so they collided, and Adriana was almost hit by him, but Peter put his arm around her waist and protected her.
Chests are close together, so close that they seem to be able to feel each other’s breath.
Adriana’s watery starry eyes flickered slightly as she pushed him away.
In a cold voice, he said, “What does it matter to you whether I drink with him or not, Mr. Alston, you are too broad-minded.”
“Alvin already has a fiancée, so you should cut off contact with him.”
“Oh, that’s a funny thing to say. Do we need to ask your permission whether we should contact or not? The director of the Women’s Federation can’t control you that wide.”
Adriana teased.
“Brenda told me that you forced her to leave Alvin?”
Peter had a cold face and a slightly sullen tone.
The little woman was exasperated by him, “So, you also think Brenda and Alvin are perfect for each other?”
“That’s not something you should worry about.”
“Sorry, it’s something I’m partial to not being able to sit back and watch.”
Dropping a sentence, she made a magnificent turn and walked away.
“Adriana?”
Peter called out and tugged on her hand.
The hot palm of her hand just touched her fingertips, and the little woman shrugged it off like the plague, “What are you doing? Peter, you stay away from me!”
In the Linghu villa, she thoroughly see Peter’s true face, and now how will be playful with him.
And how can you treat what happened before as if it never happened?
Adriana’s strong reaction shocked Peter.
His thick ink sword brows knitted slightly and his slightly raised hand retracted awkwardly, “I just wanted to tell you that you should stay out of Alvin’s business.”
“You tell me? Mr. Alston’s words are funny. Why should I listen to you, and why should you tell me this? What happens between me and Alvin is none of your business, so please stay away from me in the future.”
“Spencer is not going to live long, and Alvin doesn’t have any choice.”
Seeing that Adriana was leaving, Peter immediately said.
“You didn’t see Brenda’s news?”
Adriana turned around and stood in front of Peter, raising her eyes to gaze at the man in front of her, her red lips slightly open, her tone slightly cold and questioning.
