“Nonsense.”
Adriana gave him a blank look and added, “When are we going to get a marriage license together?”
She had long been prepared to take Peter with her when she returned to Waverly to obtain a marriage license.
At that moment, Peter’s body stiffened, a very obvious instinctive reaction.
Despite instantly adjusting to the situation, it was still discovered by Adriana.
“Things have been busy the last two days, so I don’t have time. I’ll go when I’m free for two days, OK?”
Peter deliberately delayed.
“That’s fine, I’ll find you later, when you have time, we’ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau.”
“No problem.”
The man open-mindedly should be down, but inwardly is very defiant.
The way things are going, there is absolutely no need for him to marry Adriana.
What will happen to Adriana after she runs out of time, runs off to get married, and then he dies?
It is better to conceal the relationship with Adriana now, and when he does pass away with the world, Adriana’s future influence will not be great.
Leaving the station, Aaren and Giovanny each drove a car and waited outside.
Adriana reluctantly parted with Peter, “honey, I have to go oh.”
“Go ahead, I’ll see you tonight.”
“Hmm.”
The little woman jawed slightly and got into the car.
To Aaren, he instructed, “Go to Fryer Group.”
The limousine started and she took the lead in leaving.
Lowered the window glass, waved with Peter, and looked back at the man with bated breath.
There is a worry that we will not meet again after separation.
After she left, Hank immediately said, “The Alston Group has been opposed to the second young master back to the company, the second young master and Brenden had a physical confrontation, and now is in The Alston family old mansion to ask questions.”
“Go over there now.”
Peter’s expression changed slightly, just the whole aura of the person steeply morose cold a few points.
…
Fryer Group.
Adriana got out of the car and breezed upstairs, entering the office to find Harlee at work.
“Knock first when you come in, how many times have I said … Adriana!?”
Harlee is buried in her work when she looks up and finds Adriana standing in the doorway.
He immediately closed the file, got up and walked to Adriana’s front, his fire-filled eyes staring straight at her, “I ask you, where have you been these days, do you know I’ve been looking for you all over the world?”
Adriana’s eyes flickered, and her small hand touched her head, “I’m just in a bad mood … went out to play.”
Anyway, what’s done is done, and no matter what Harlee says, it won’t change anything.
“Adriana, will you stop it? Do you have any idea how tense things are right now? The Soto family is in danger now with Tiana and The Alston family working together, and Brenden’s all about the Soto and the Lindsay Group, you know?”
Harlee had a headache and didn’t expect the times to change so quickly.
Really should be that ‘unpredictable wind and clouds’, let people feel saddened.
She walked idly to the sofa and sat down, looking at him somewhat tiredly, “These are all your own choices. You were the one who was willing to work with Brenden in the beginning, you always thought you could grasp Brenden, but in the end, you still became his stepping stone?”
Adriana got up and poured herself a glass of water, while not forgetting to say: “Brenden is very sophisticated, not many people will be his opponent. You are careless and gullible, it is also a lesson.”
It’s just that this time the lesson is too profound.
She could probably tell that if The Alston family, the Griffin family, and The Lindsay Family, three strong families, joined forces, it could be a devastating blow to the Soto family.
“Grandpa went to see the Powells’ old man in the last two days.”
“What’s the point of meeting him? They contract has been signed, it is difficult to say that at this time the Powells old man can still agree to you halfway into the stock?”
That’s simply not possible.
And not to say that there is no such clock possibility, she would not think so.
“Grandpa is talking for you to get married to Raylan.”
Harlee tells her about all the things that have happened in Waverly in the last few days when Adriana was away.
“Pfft … cough …”
The small woman who was drinking water was shocked to hear Harlee’s words and covered her mouth and coughed violently.
“Are you kidding, Old Mr. Soto went to meet with old Mr. Powell for my business? Did you ask me about this?”
She couldn’t stand it any longer, she walked up to Harlee, put the cup on the table with a thud and was furious, “Harlee, you guys are going too far. Even if I am a child of the Soto family, I am in control of my future, not what you do, I must follow the route you give me. No way!”
When I think about how Harlee initially said she wanted Adriana to come back, she just wanted to make up for all those years of regret.
At that moment Adriana was a little touched.
But now, everything is an appearance, things are moving step by step towards her expectation.
She eventually became a trade item for a business association.
“Adri, I know you’re going to be angry when you hear this, but Grandpa had a choice. The Soto family was founded by our forefathers, and now that it’s here and in danger, do you think Grandpa can stand by and do nothing?”
Harlee still cares more about the feelings of Old Mr. Soto.
“Whether it was founded by my ancestors or not, I don’t know. But I want to tell you that this matter has nothing to do with me, and I will not intervene, and even less will I agree to any marriage union of yours. Let me tell you, if you still consider me as your sister, go and tell the old man right now, and tell him that there is absolutely no way I will answer to answer your request. Impossible!”
Bang–
The office door was suddenly pushed open.
The loud noise scared the nerves out of both of them and they turned around to see that it was Old Mr. Soto and his entourage coming.
“Adri, where have you been the last few days?”
Old Mr. Soto walked in, playing with walnuts in his hands, his hands behind his back, his face as gloomy as ink.
It seems to be angry because Adriana has left without saying goodbye these days.
Adriana turned to look at Old Mr. Soto and asked, instead of answering, “I heard from Harlee that you ran the Powells to ask me for a kiss?”
It’s really unacceptable for others to dictate her fate.
Since childhood, every step of the road is in the calculation of others, so it is difficult to live self-esteem, but now the result is still being counted a time.
Adriana has some doubts about life.
“You and Raylan two love each other, I just go over and old Mr. Powell master to talk about it is not all for your good.”
Old Mr. Soto gave Adriana a cold glance and walked inside to sit down in front of the sofa.
To sit there, like a statue, awe-inspiring, penetrating cold.
“I’ll handle my own affairs and make my own choices, at least for now, without you getting involved.”
Once again, Adriana says exactly what is on her mind.
“Humph, don’t forget who you are! I am now the head of THE Soto family and I call the shots!”
Old Mr. Soto changed his gentle and kind appearance when he first met Adriana, and showed a scene of hypocrisy and rage.
But no matter how angry the other side is, Adriana is not angry.
“You are in charge, and you are indeed the head of THE Soto family. But I’m sorry, my last name is Hale, not Gu!”
