“Really, when you get old later, you can also go to that kind of place to let yourself live a slow and grungy life.”
Peter’s tone was very gentle, and perhaps because of the weakness of his breath, his speech seemed so feeble.
Every time she hears Peter like this, Adriana feels deeply guilty.
Because in the days after the wedding, the man really did not want to kill himself to linger with her several times, although each time Adriana was refusing, but there is no use at all.
Peter doesn’t listen to advice.
“Adriana, promise me you’ll be kinder to yourself in the future, okay?”
“Well, I will.”
“When I’m gone, remember to scatter my ashes in the ocean.”
“Why?”
Adriana doesn’t understand why Peter is doing this.
Instead, he just said faintly, “Because I don’t want to leave a tombstone.”
Peter was telling the truth, he really didn’t want to leave a tombstone, didn’t want to leave any thoughts for Adriana.
That way Adriana will forget everything in the shortest possible time.
Adriana didn’t say anything, so naturally, she didn’t agree.
When the two entered the hall, the servants had not yet rested.
Probably Hank explained to the maids, so they kept the food warm.
“Sir, madam, the meal is ready. You may dine now.”
The maid said respectfully to the two men.
The two walked to the foyer and the maid came up and was about to get her shoes when Adriana waved her hand, “No, I’ll do it myself.”
She squatted down and took out a pair of cotton slippers from the shoe cupboard and placed them in front of Peter, “Here, change into them.”
“You don’t have to do these things, you’re the mistress of the house, understand?”
The man doted on her hair and rubbed it.
Adriana looked at him and said, “But you’re the only husband I’ve ever had.”
These words were deep in Peter’s heart, and he smiled with relief.
The two changed their shoes, went to the bathroom and washed their hands, then walked to the dining room and sat down.
Sitting face to face, looking at the sumptuous dinner on the table, it was all a vegetarian meal on the list.
“Let’s eat, I’m really hungry.”
Adriana served Peter a bowl of soup and placed it in front of him, “Here, have some soup first.”
“You eat a little more too.”
Peter swept a glance at the meal on the table and said to the maid at the side, “Make some separate meat and vegetable dishes for Adriana in the future.”
“Yes, sir. Or shall I go do it now?”
The maid then realized the weight of this new woman in Peter’s heart.
“No no no.”
Adriana immediately refused, “It’s already very late, you should also get an early night.”
She said to the maid, “Go on, get some rest.”
“This …”
The servant did not dare to leave, but just looked at Peter, as if waiting for the king’s verdict.
“Go down.”
“Yes.”
The maids left in droves.
The two of them were then left alone in the large dining room. Adriana scooped herself a bowl of porridge, took a bite, and then looked at Peter, “You eat some too.”
Looking at Peter’s current state of health, Adriana decided that shemust go see Zac tomorrow.
The only way to get a thorough understanding of Peter’s current physical state is to do so.
The two didn’t talk much during dinner.
Adriana had something on her mind, and she was really helpless when she saw that Peter couldn’t eat.
Then said, “Honey, I’m going to go out and make a call and ask about Luis and Helen, you wait a minute.”
Got up and walked out, making a call to Harlee outside the hall to inquire about the two children.
Then he talked to the two children for a while before hanging up the phone.
By the time she got back to the restaurant, Peter was already wiping his mouth with a paper towel.
“Finished eating?”
“Well, I just had a bowl of porridge and soup, so I’m not really hungry anymore.”
“Okay, then I’ll have some more.”
Adriana pretends she doesn’t know anything and sits across from him, talking about the two children’s recent situation while she eats.
After it was over, Adriana received the plates into the kitchen, and with just a casual glance, she saw that the kitchen trash was filled with porridge.
It was dumped by Peter.
Walked out of the kitchen and said to Peter, “Come on, let’s go up, it’s getting late.”
It’s already so late and Adriana really wants Peter to rest a little early.
Back in the room, the two took separate showers and rested.
Adriana hugged Peter and stayed awake.
The quiet night, the two talk now and then, and it doesn’t take long for Peter to fall asleep.
Adriana looked at the time and saw that it was already three o’clock.
As expected, time also passed more quickly after being with Peter.
Because she was worried about his health, Adriana decided to take tomorrow off and then take time to go to the hospital to see Zac and ask him about the situation.
It was late, and Adriana was up, tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep.
But I don’t dare to keep moving, for fear that it will affect Peter’s rest.
Just struggling and rolling around in bed, I don’t know how long it took before Fang fell asleep holding Peter.
The next day.
The sun is shining.
Adriana slept until she woke up naturally, and opened her eyes to bump into Peter’s eyes.
“Adriana, good morning.”
The man’s thin, thick lips slightly hooked up a curve, reaching out and brushing his cheek.
“Awake?”
Adriana wrapped her arms around his waist and moved closer to Peter, rubbing against his chest like a clingy kitten.
“Did you sleep well yesterday?”
He asked Adriana.
Adriana’s eyes, which had been closed, slowly opened and nodded, “Well, that’s good.”
How can it be good?
Seeing Peter’s health getting worse and worse, Adriana spent every day in a heart-breaking way, worse than death.
“It’s getting late, time to get up and eat or you’ll be late for work.”
Peter’s tone is quite gentle.
Adriana, however, shook her head and flirted, “The spring night is short and the day is high, from now on the king does not have an early morning.”
The man was amused by her words, “If word got out, the Fryer Group would be revolting against me?”
“They wouldn’t dare.”
“Heh heh heh.”
Peter, who was in a good mood, laughed brightly and seemed to feel happy every moment he was with Adriana.
He indulged Adriana, then hugged the little woman and the two stayed in bed, not wanting to get up.
Grunt-
Who knows that after lying down for a short while, Adriana’s stomach sang an empty city.
“If you don’t get up, you’re going to be hungry and thin.”
Adriana was a little bemused, “That’s fine.”
The two of them get up together, go to the bathroom and brush their teeth together like, enjoying every minute with each other.
Go downstairs and dine.
Peter continues to eat very little.
Adriana was looking at the eyes, anxious in the heart, but did not know what to do.
I can only be anxious and angry alone.
After the meal, Adriana said to him, “Honey, you stay home and rest, I have to go to work.”
“I’ll drive you.”
The man walked up to her and said.
“No, no, no, it’s too flashy, it’s not good to be seen. No need.”
“Hank sent you the same thing, be good and listen.”
…
So Hank drove and the two sat in the back, escorting Adriana all the way to the Fryer Group.
A few hundred meters away, Adriana prepared to get out of the car, gave him a hug, and said, “I’ll go first, bye.”
