With that, he glanced at Raylan and turned around to prepare to go out.
“Wait.”
Seeing that Adriana was leaving, old Mr. Powell waved towards her, “Ms. Hale, come and sit down.”
At the moment I am a little surprised, or rather flattered, to understand what old Mr. Powell meant.
“Adri, go over and sit down if my dad tells you to.”
Raylan tugged her along.
Invariably, Adriana felt that there was something blatant and flamboyant between her and him.
“Huh.”
She smiled awkwardly and nodded towards old Mr. Powell, “Sorry, I didn’t know you were in the office just now, I hope old Mr. Powell doesn’t mind.”
He glanced at Raylan, as if to say: “Are you retarded, your father will not be informed in advance?
Really … is embarrassing.
“I know all about you and Raylan, and Raylan told me all about it.”
“What?”
Adriana was confused.
“Raylan told me that you didn’t like him. It was all wishful thinking on his part in pursuing you and hoping you would marry him. Before more or less I have some misunderstanding about you. However, according to my recent observation, I found that you are a good girl. Then, I have something to say straight away.”
The old Mr. Powell is a fictional master.
Adriana frowned, glanced at Raylan in confusion, and then said to old Mr. Powell, “old Mr. Powell if you have anything to say, just ask.”
She prefers to be straightforward than to beat around the bush.
“Raylan has begged me repeatedly not to stop you two from getting married. The boy has been paranoid since he was a child, and I couldn’t resist him. So, I called you here today to tell you that I have agreed to your marriage. As long as you and Raylan are happy, I will make it happen.”
“Becoming whole?”
The sudden news blew Adriana’s mind.
She stood up in a flash and shook her head, “No, no, no, old Mr. Powell, Raylan and I are simply not right for each other, and I have no intention of marrying him. Besides, I’m not even good enough for him.”
“Adri, just stop it, okay.”
God knows how much effort he went through to convince old Mr. Powell.
I really don’t want the previous efforts to go down the drain.
“Heh.”
old Mr. Powell master lightly smiled, “you have some self-awareness. Anyway, I still hope Raylan will not regret, the road he chose himself kneeling to go on.”
He got up, straightened his suit, and buttoned it with one large hand.
The calm and serious face showed some disappointment and looked at Raylan, “Tomorrow your brother will come over to handle the handover with you. From now on, you don’t need to interfere with the Oblurg Group.”
“Yes, Father.”
Raylan didn’t care, but rather was ecstatic.
“Hmph, there will be a day when you will regret it.”
old Mr. Powell master grunted and walked away.
Adriana stood in place, quickly digesting the mass of news, shocked.
So, listening to the words of old Mr. Powell just now meant that Raylan gave up the president of Oblurg Group in order to be with her.
Oblurg Group is a Fortune 500 company with numerous domestic and international subsidiaries.
He was kicked out of the company and the Oblurg Group had nothing to do with him after that?
“Raylan, are you crazy?”
After rationalizing her thoughts, Adriana couldn’t help but growl in anger, “What’s wrong with you, do you know what you’re doing?”
Raylan smiled instead of anger, reached out and took her hand, “Adriana, remember when in Floedan’s isolated quadrangle, I spent those days with you, is the best memories of my life. At that time, you told me that the life you wanted was a simple, ordinary life, a lifetime of relaxation. At that time, you thought I couldn’t do it. But now, I tell you with practical action, for you, I am willing.”
Memories of the past, Adriana naturally remembered.
That time, the poison in the body attacked.
It was Raylan who took her away to live in her grandmother’s quadrangle in the countryside for half a month when she was worse off than dead.
It was also during that time that she was able to recover physically.
It was a time that Adriana will never forget, and naturally the love she felt for Raylan is still in her heart.
“Raylan.”
She called out and quietly drew back her hand.
Taking a step back, he turned and walked to the office floor-to-ceiling window, looked out the window and sighed, “I … don’t think you have to pay too much for me. I’ve made my attitude clear to you at noon today, and I hope you’re clear.”
Raylan is sometimes too obsessive, as old Mr. Powell said, too paranoid.
But Adriana never thought that Raylan would give up the Oblurg Group because of her.
She remembered Raylan said that he had a brother and the two were not as close as Alvin and Spencer.
“I don’t care.”
Raylan walked up to her, “I never cared about that. The life you want is the life I like, and living a simple life together, happy and harmonious is the best.”
He was born in a wealthy family, everything on the surface is shiny and bright, behind all that only he knows in his own heart.
“Raylan you don’t have to be so persistent.”
Adriana couldn’t help but say, “I’m really not in the mood for childishness right now.”
There is still a lot waiting for her to do, and she just wants to take care of everything in the shortest possible time.
Adriana’s words hit Raylan over and over again, and he deeply understood what it meant to have a heart like a knife.
He turned around, hands in the pockets of his pants, and ducked around the office, head down, wondering what he was thinking.
Adriana turned around and looked at his downcast appearance with a very bad feeling in her heart, “By the way, you said today that you investigated the matter of Old Mr. Soto, right?”
She quickly willing the topic.
Raylan reached out and pointed, “The stuff is on the table.”
The little woman looked in the direction of his finger, a thick pile of information on the table.
So much?
You can see how carefully the investigation was done.
Walking over to the desk, he held the information in his arms, “Thanks, I’ll go first then.”
If you continue to stay in the office, it will only add to the embarrassment.
Adriana just wants to get out of the wrong place and avoid facing Raylan.
In recent times, she obviously found Raylan and before he seemed to be a different person.
It becomes more persistent, fervent, even the pursuit comes so violently and suddenly.
Adriana couldn’t take it.
When Raylan didn’t say anything, she left the office.
Raylan didn’t come out until he entered the elevator.
Adriana breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling a little more relaxed.
When she got out of the car and sat inside, she couldn’t help but pick up the information and look through the thick pile of information.
Just as I was about to watch it, the phone rang.
It’s Raylan’s phone.
Adriana hesitates for a moment and answers, “Raylan?”
“Information you better have a little mental preparation before reading, the Soto family … is far from being as simple as you think.”
No matter how fervent that man is, if fiercely pursued, still cared for her and cared for her.
Adriana appreciates it.
“Okay, thanks.”
“Adriana, don’t be so polite with me.”
He called her ‘Adriana’ once again.
