If you know his nature is such, how can you fall in love.
Peter looked gloomy, clutching her wrist tightly, couldn’t help but increase the force.
“This time, I owe you.”
Peter lowered his voice and put down his former dignity and arrogance.
“Sorry, there’s nothing that can be done.”
Adriana was not touched by his inexplicable sentimental feelings, but felt that Peter was playing a game.
Reaching out to break his fingers one by one, his eyes stared at him unblinkingly, “Stay away from me in the future, stay away from Luis and Helen, and if … you dare to hit the two children again, don’t blame me for flipping out with you.”
As the words fell, she brushed Peter’s hand away and stormed off in a huff.
Ta-da-da-da
The sound of high heels faded away, and Peter stood in place, looking at her back, watching the slim back gradually shrink until it disappeared.
His gloomy face gradually improved and a light smile emerged.
“Boss, madam is in the hospital and has been calling crying and making a fuss to see the young master.”
Hank, who was standing not far away, came towards him and reported the situation at the hospital.
Mrs. Alston was sent to the hospital today because she missed her two children too much and had an argument with Peter, who had a heart attack.
It was hard to wake up and kept making a fuss to see the two children.
Peter was also forced to come to Adriana.
“Boss, you should have told the truth.”
How could Adriana let the two children come to see Madame without telling her about the implementation?
“Really, you think she’ll believe me if I tell her?”
Peter’s rhetorical tone, but shook his head to himself, with a definite answer in mind.
Adriana won’t believe it.
Because she was already unwilling to trust him in her bones, how could she possibly let her two children go to see his mother in the hospital?
“Well, what about the lady’s side?”
Hank trailed off.
Peter did not speak.
He didn’t know what to do, he didn’t know how to cajole or how to appease his mother and father.
“Let Sloane keep her company.”
Other than that, he could not think of a better way.
…
Adriana did not go back to the neighborhood, but went to the hotel to look for Alani.
Alani was not surprised to see Adriana, because in the last few days, Adriana has been coming over every day whenever she has time.
“How was your sleep yesterday?”
Alani had a face mask on her face and was wearing pajamas, a change from her gentle, jade-like male image in the daytime.
Adriana shook her head, “Still dependent on sleeping pills.”
She walked in, sat on the sofa, head resting on the sofa, raised her hand and rubbed her brow, closed her eyes and sighed, “My training has been very intense lately, but I still can’t sleep at night. The effect of sleeping pills is now much less than before. It simply doesn’t work.”
The body is her own, and she has a general idea of the state of her body.
Because of the long hours of sleep deprivation, Adriana’s condition is now deteriorating.
Not to mention the over-reliance on drugs, has produced a rejection reaction, not to mention the damage to the body from taking too much medication.
“I’ve been treating you for three days in a row, and there’s no improvement at all?”
Alani sat sideways on the couch, holding doubts.
Depending on his ability to treat insomnia, it is impossible that there is no half-way improvement.
Adriana shook her head, not saying anything.
“Okay, then you wait a while.”
Alani reached up and patted the mask on her face, “Allow me to finish my maintenance before talking.”
The corners of Adriana’s mouth twitched slightly, speechless.
Leaning back on the sofa, playing with his phone and swiping through his weibo, his mind was recalling why Peter had just appeared on the roadside.
Is it deliberately waiting for her?
But how could he, who would not rest until his goal was achieved, let her go without achieving it?
For a long time, Alani finished applying the mask and washed her face.
When he came out of the bathroom, he had changed into a formal dress.
Changed the wobbly light to a slight yellow light, then said, “Lie down on the recliner, relax, and put down your phone.”
Jerking the phone out of her hand and tossing it aside.
Continue, “Close your eyes, release yourself as much as you can, and then imagine that you are on an endless green prairie, facing the breeze, basking in the warm sun, and listening to the cries of the birds …”
His tone was gentle and slow, painting a beautiful view of the prairie in Adriana’s mind.
For some time, he glanced at Adriana and saw that her hand on her abdomen was slowly dropping and she seemed to have fallen into a drowsy sleep.
Alani sat across from her and asked in a small voice, “What’s your name?”
“Adriana.”
The little sleeping woman answered as if she were murmuring.
“How many children do you have?”
“Two.”
“Why do you have insomnia?”
“Because …”
Sleeping she actually had a moment of pause, and then dazedly murmured, “all in the memory of the past, it is difficult to sleep.”
Alani’s brow furrowed and she asked again, “Memories of who?”
“Peter.”
“Do you love Peter?”
“Love.”
Alani: “…”
Alani’s lips were slightly open, and many words came to her lips but she swallowed them.
Looking at the small woman lying on the bed, his wrinkled eyebrows grew deeper and deeper.
“Adriana, you …”
He raised his hand, his long fingertips gently ruffled a strand of hair in front of her forehead, sighing with emotion, “Destined to love deep and difficult to solve, a life of entanglement.”
Got up, took a blanket and put it over Adriana’s body, then went out.
Somehow, Adriana, who slept in her room, woke up without finding Alani.
After calling Alani and getting no answer, Adriana simply returned home.
It was late, so Adriana went upstairs to see the two children, gave a word of advice to both Giovanny and Aaren to protect them, and then went downstairs.
Back home, another sleepless night, this day Vivian also did not sleep, the two sat together to brush the drama.
It is clear that both of them are hiding something in their hearts, but no one has said anything.
It’s not because the two are estranged from each other, but neither wants to add unnecessary burdens to the other.
There are some things that even talking about them doesn’t mean they can be handled.
At the same time, Alani shows up at Peter’s Gliy Whein Mansion.
Peter sat on the sofa, looked at Alani sitting across from him and asked, “What is the reason for Mr. Shangguan coming here uninvited?”
He folded his legs and interlocked his fingers on his abdomen, sitting on the sofa in a lazy and aristocratic posture.
Alani sat upright, looked across the table, and said, “I came over here today to tell you …”
The desire to speak stopped.
Peter raised an eyebrow gently on one side, waiting for the following.
Alani spread her hands, licked her lips with the tip of her tongue, and looked away, as if considering exactly what to say.
“Does Mr. Shangguan have something difficult to say?”
Compared to the last time Peter kidnapped him in a domineering manner, this time it was a lot more polite.
Alani looked torn, thought for a long time, said: “I came over today is to tell you something. In fact … in fact …”
As he spoke, the words broke off again.
