“Hello, let me take a look at this one.”
She pointed to the counter and said to the shopper.
“Beauty, you have a good eye. This is the latest model of the store, just yesterday back into the price of more than two hundred thousand, is not expensive. It’s quite suitable for your boyfriend.”
The shop assistant takes out the watch and hands it to Adriana.
As far as Adriana is concerned, she owes Raylan a lot, and a watch of more than 200, 000 is naturally not expensive, but it is a token of appreciation.
“Get me a new one. ”
“Yes, please wait a moment.”
Seeing Adriana’s generosity, the shop assistant was so happy that she immediately took a new watch for her and handed it to her with a list.
Adriana checks out and walks away.
Raylan was already seated in the box when he arrived at the One Piece House.
“Keeping you waiting.”
Adriana pursed her lips and Raylan shook his head, “I just got here too.”
The small woman glanced at a bouquet of flowers placed across from Raylan, which was the first time he had sent flowers, I don’t know.
Even though Raylan was told many times that there was no need to send these things between the two of them.
But Raylan didn’t even care.
She sat down on the card seat and placed the black box in her hand in front of Raylan, “Happy birthday.”
Raylan, dressed in a blue suit, sat upright and heard Adriana speak with a strange glint in his eye.
“Do you … know my birthday?”
He was surprised.
“Sure.”
It was Lynn who inadvertently mentioned Raylan’s birthday when she was on the unnamed island a few years ago. If not, how could she have known.
Raylan was flattered and opened the gift box with great anticipation. Inside was a very high-end and elegant watch with luxurious simplicity.
My fingers rubbed the dial, and my heart swirled with the sweet taste.
“Adriana, it’s my birthday today, and I have a favor to ask, can I ask you to put on my watch for me?”
The man’s good-looking eyebrows were slightly raised, so engrossed in liking it that he didn’t notice that his address to Adriana had actually inadvertently changed.
Adriana froze and couldn’t refuse, “Okay.”
Getting up, he walked over to Raylan, “Hold out your hand.”
Raylan reached out cooperatively as she leaned down and unlocked the old watch on the man’s wrist.
Knock Knock-
The waiter knocked on the door and pushed the door in, “What would you like to order, ladies and gentlemen?”
Asked, and seeing the woman was putting a watch on the man, she said, “You guys are so happy.”
And at that moment, two people walked past the door of the box, but two seconds later the person who walked past turned back and stood at the door of the box.
The eyes stared at the scene inside the box, stopping to watch, eyes deeper and deeper.
In the box, the little woman stood in front of Raylan, removed the old watch for her, then took out the new watch from the black box, tore off the scratch-proof film on the strap, and helped Raylan put on the watch with her head down.
She, from time to time, still smiles at Raylan and wonders what she is saying.
The two men looked at each other with deep love and affection.
Peter never thought he would actually encounter this scene in a restaurant.
With every move of the small woman in the box, Peter’s heart is like being lynched, painful to commit jerking, spasms, breathing are near suffocation.
The eyes skimmed slightly and fell on the bouquet of flowers on the table.
Blooming gorgeous, unbelievably beautiful flowers but Peter felt that harsh.
After a while, the thin lips of the Philadelphia floated out a mocking smile, slightly shook his head, converging his eyelids and stepping towards the front.
Since the choice was made instantly, it should be put down.
She, well, isn’t that what he is looking forward to?
But why is it so heartbreaking?
The back of the Hank gaze at the scene in the box, very heartbroken own boss. but he respects the boss’s choice, and can not say anything.
The two walked to the box at the end, Uncle Raymond had been waiting for a long time and the food was already served.
“Fifth uncle, long time waiting.”
Peter walked into the room with a formulaic smile on his lips.
“Hahahaha, I just arrived not long ago too. Come, sit, Hank you sit too.”
Raymond fifty years old, very keen on fitness, so it is very obvious years ago, temperament forced, quite a few literary and elegant atmosphere, like to dance and ink, the company is not interested in things.
“Good, just a little hungry. Let’s move our chopsticks first.”
Peter sat across from Raymond and the two ate and talked.
Although his health is not too good, but with the medicine prescribed by Raul senior, his body is better than before, and he can eat some light dishes.
“Come on, we haven’t had dinner together as uncle and nephew for some years, cheers.”
“No, no, no, I’ve had some headaches recently, and I just drank cephalosporin, so I can’t drink. Don’t blame Uncle Five.”
Peter pulled a very reasonable reason, so Raymond did not say anything.
After a few simple bites, Peter got straight to the point, “Uncle Five, ever think that Leonidas kid is cute?”
He suddenly changed the subject, Raymond’s hand holding the chopsticks stiffened slightly, naturally understanding Peter’s intention.
“Ohhhh, Leonidas that boy is smart and clever, very pleasing.”
“Uncle Five doesn’t think Leonidas looks like anyone?”
“Hahahaha … is certainly like his father.”
“Why do I think that kid looks a little more like you?” Peter didn’t intend to hide the truth.
Raymond doesn’t like to mingle in the mall, but that doesn’t mean he’s a fool.
Many things he understands in his heart, just do not have to say it.
Right in his heart, Raymond sunken his face, raised his glass and drained a glass of red wine, put down his goblet, took a piece of cold jellyfish and ate it.
Half the time, neither spoke.
Peter glanced sideways at Hank and gestured a look toward him.
Hank immediately escaped a copy from his briefcase and placed it on the dining room table, spinning the dial and transferring the information to Raymond’s face.
“Fifth uncle, this thing you might want to take a look at.”
Raymond ate quietly and glanced at the document without meaning to open it. “What is it? Peter might as well be straight with uncle.”
“Good.”
Peter paid a smile, “then I’ll say it straight. uncle uncle five also know those things that Uncle did back then, and he is not even The Alston family, so many years with Hayley together with the birth of a child. That child is Leonidas, after Leonidas was born to one year old will be brought back. At the beginning, Uncle is to let grandfather and Leonidas did a paternity test to confirm the ‘paternity’ between him and grandfather two.
But, a paternity test was done by Leonidas with his grandfather. It is logical that Uncle’s identity would be naturally recognized as his grandfather’s son. But as it happens, Leonidas is not Brenden’s biological son and has no blood relationship with him.”
Raymond poured himself a glass of wine, raised his glass and took a sip, smiling casually, “Peter na, Uncle Five knows you are a smart boy.”
The implication is that smart kids should do smart things.
So, Raymond knows everything.
“I checked, you had donated sperm to the hospital, and Uncle somehow knew about it and used artificial insemination to impregnate Hayley without her knowledge. So Leonidas is not Brenden’s child at all, but yours. There are paternity tests between you and Leonidas and Leonidas and Uncle in the file, which is enough to explain everything. I am curious to know in what way Brenden threatened you to make you compromise? Or was it a threat to Leonidas or your wife’s life?”
