Adriana’s eyebrows knitted together and felt that things were far more serious than she had imagined.
“Can I … live the life I want?”
Whether it’s Obren or the Soto family, she just wants to live an ordinary life now and make peace with herself every day.
Because of Obren’s identity, Adriana has experienced too much that she shouldn’t have to endure.
After the ups and downs, she just wants to regain her peace and live the life she wants.
Old Mr. Soto’s eyes drooped slightly, thinking for a moment, “I can’t give you an exact answer as to whether you can live an ordinary life or not. I can only say that everything is natural.”
Bang Bang Bang –
The man outside seemed a bit anxious and was curious to know exactly what Old Mr. Soto was saying to Adriana.
Impatiently, he knocked on the door, “Dad, what the hell are you doing?”
Old Mr. Soto completely ignored the man standing outside the door and instead looked straight at Adriana, “the Soto family, no one knows who I am until now. I don’t want to involve them in this, can you understand my thinking?”
“Hmm. But I want you to keep Rexin check and get him to reveal Luis’ whereabouts. But you can be assured of one thing: I won’t hurt Rex as long as he doesn’t touch my bottom.”
Old Mr. Soto said so much about what had happened, Adriana couldn’t help but feel sorry for Rex’s poor life.
If Rex’s parents had not bought time for her mother, she might not have been born.
Adriana really doesn’t want to do anything too much for someone who has a miserable life.
“Good, I hope the young master will understand my good intentions. This ring, how about, you still accept it?”
Old Mr. Soto took that one ring and said, “I heard about Tatum’s wedding, he suspects it has something to do with you, are you sure you can do it if you don’t have someone around?”
Others do not know the power of Tatum, Old Mr. Soto is still very clear.
“You have said that I have a special status, if these people come back to me, won’t they explode my identity? No need, I believe I can handle it. After all, in a society governed by the rule of law, even if they want to take revenge, they will only lay their hands on THE Soto Group.”
“That … makes sense.”
Old Mr. Soto sighed and nodded, “That’s fine, just be clear in your own mind about what happened. As for Harlee, it is better not to let him know the truth for the time being.”
“Understood.”
Even if Old Mr. Soto doesn’t talk, Adriana doesn’t plan to tell Harlee the truth.
Out of the protection of Harlee.
The two men walked out of the hall and looked at those standing at the door, and no one said anything.
Instead, Old Mr. Soto walked right up to Rex and questioned, “Where the hell is Luis?”
Rex’s face is bruised and swollen, and he looks like a wreck. I thought the old man would feel sorry for him, but I didn’t know that he would come up with a question.
Innocently looking at his mom and dad, waiting for them to say something.
“You son of a bitch, where is Luis, just say it?”
“Yeah, yeah, look at your dad who is no match for that guy, if you piss Adriana off, I can’t protect you if she really wants to beat you up later.”
Long before Adriana came over, Rex told the Soto family bosses what happened, which is why they delayed opening the door.
Now that Adriana wants people on her doorstep, and Old Mr. Soto is involved, things are bound to give an account.
“I … I … I … I …”
Now that no one was defending Rex, he was at a loss in his heart. His flickering eyes were on Adriana, and he glanced at the very powerful Giovanny, always thinking that if Dad was not his opponent, then no one in the Soto family would be his opponent.
Thinking about continuing to conceal the inevitable thrashing, he had to say, “People I let … Brenden take away.”
Adriana was furious, “Surely it’s Brenden!”
The anger went straight to her head, Adriana was really angry, but thinking about what Old Mr. Soto said, she surprisingly did not know how to face Rex.
The last warning was, “Don’t get any more ideas about Luis and Helen or I’ll waste you!”
When he finished, he trotted down the steps and said, “Harlee, Giovanny, let’s go.”
A group of three people came and went in a hurry.
Looking at their backs, several members of the Soto family looked at each other, each with their own thoughts, and finally set their eyes on Old Mr. Soto’s body.
The second one couldn’t help but ask, “Dad, what exactly did you just say to Adriana?”
“Yeah Dad, what’s your secret?”
“Are you planning to give Adriana all of the Soto family’s assets?”
…
They are common people who see only money in their eyes, and they are most worried about the Adriana siblings getting rid of the Soto family’s property.
Old Mr. Soto scanned the circle of people and finally looked at Rex with a cold snort, “You’ve been spoiled by your parents, I’m warning you, if you dare to hit on Adriana, I’ll break your legs!”
“Humph, who is your own grandson, Adriana and Harlee are just halfway out, what are they?”
Rex stormed out, very unconvinced.
If you speak loudly, the corners of your mouth will hurt, and he covers the corners of his mouth and huffs repeatedly.
…
The three Adriana’s left, Giovanny in his own car and Adriana sharing a car with Harlee.
Harlee in the driver’s seat asked as she drove, “What were you and Old Mr. Soto talking about in there?”
“Old Mr. Soto? Didn’t they used to call him Grandpa very intimately?”
“You did say he wasn’t your real grandfather, didn’t you.”
He glanced at Adriana, his gaze dark.
Adriana looked sideways at the window, thoughtful, sighed, “Although he is not your real grandfather, but at least it is also single-handedly raised you, as long as not to harm you, he is still the closest person to you.”
If there had been doubts about Old Mr. Soto before, all is pretty much put to rest now.
“What exactly did you guys talk about, and how did you change your attitude towards him so much?”
Harlee clearly sensed a big change in Adriana’s attitude toward Old Mr. Soto.
“He gave me all the FE’s of THE Soto family.”
“What, SHIT, why?”
Harlee was unconvinced and even a little jealous.
You know he lived in the Soto family for more than ten or twenty years, Old Mr. Soto never gave him a single FE person, and now he actually gave all the FE people to Adriana.
“Did you know that the Soto family has a dozen FE’s, a dozen of them. All brought back from Motril, every one of them is worth a lot of money. It’s really … too dramatic to give it all to you. Come on, tell me why?”
Harlee couldn’t accept the cruel reality and was a little jealous.
“You are my brother, those people are given to me, aren’t they yours too? What to think.”
Adriana couldn’t help herself.
“Eh? Right oh, that makes sense. Tell me, how many are you going to give me?”
“Four. No more.”
“Gouging.”
Harlee gave her a blank look, “What’s the point of keeping so many FE’s when you’ve got masters like Giovanny and Aaren on your hands?”
“I am a woman and shall not keep someone to protect me.”
