Too many things happened recently, she was depressed tight, so she wanted to come out to relax and unwind.
Halfway down the road, the phone rang.
It’s Brenda’s phone.
“What’s wrong, is something wrong?”
Adriana knows about Brenda’s condition and now has HIV, which is manageable but not curable.
The company has lost a lot of money for breach of contract.
But Alvin didn’t say anything, after all, Brenda’s health condition is important.
Adriana said it was understandable.
“Ms… Ms. Hale.”
After the call was answered, Brenda was silent for a few seconds as Adriana’s voice dropped before she spoke.
The stammering attitude made Adriana think she must be up to something.
“Say something straight.”
“Can I … go out for one night today?”
“Reason.”
“Alvin will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. As you know, the previous incident caused irreparable pain to Alvin, and I feel guilty, so I want to take the opportunity to create a surprise for him after his discharge.”
A paragraph was said smoothly and Adriana did not have any doubts.
Unbeknownst to her, Brenda wrote down the conversation early on in order to calm her emotions and to appear not so much obvious inside the phone.
After familiarization, it is said by reading the words in the book.
“That’s okay, fine.”
The men who guard Brenda are the ones Adriana arranged.
Now that Brenda wants to go out, she certainly won’t stop.
“Ms. Hale, I have another unpleasant request.”
“Say.”
Adriana’s attitude is cold and very distant towards her.
Having once given her her heart and soul, but still being used, Adriana had some resistance in her heart.
“I want you to come with me. I bought a mansion over in northern suburbs, and now that everything has been delivered, I’m a little pressed for time. I’m afraid those maids can’t get it right, and I want you to help me go over there with them.”
“The mansion?”
“Yeah, Alvin likes peace and quiet, and I found this little compound over in northern suburbs a long time ago with a really nice view. I thought it would take him a few days to get out of the hospital, but I didn’t know I was going out tomorrow.”
“OK, where are you waiting? Never mind, I’ll come over and pick you up.”
After hanging up the phone, Adriana called Giovanny and asked, “Did Brenda ever buy a house in northern suburbs?”
I had Giovanny investigate Brenda’s affairs in detail before, but there were some things Adriana hadn’t cared about.
But Giovanny knew in his heart.
“Yes, it’s a courtyard with a great view.”
“Got it.”
In the end, Adriana is a bit wary of Brenda, otherwise she wouldn’t have called Giovanny to confirm.
After a lot of things happened, Adriana really didn’t like Brenda, and even disliked Brenda a little, but because Alvin was involved and Brenda had HIV, she let her guard down.
I stopped a cab, took a cab to the hospital, and waited for Brenda in front of the inpatient unit.
She is a public figure and wears sunglasses and a mask when she goes out, protecting herself well.
In the car, Brenda told the cab driver the address and went straight to her destination.
“Ms. Hale, thank you.”
Brenda, wearing sunglasses, inclined her head to glance at Adriana.
“No need to be polite to me, if it wasn’t for Alvin, I don’t think we would have crossed paths with each other anymore.”
After that incident, Brenda was willing to take her own life to protect Alvin in order to be able to protect him.
Adriana’s heart is still very touched.
At least it shows that her conscience is not dead.
“Heh heh, I know, I know.”
Brenda laughed awkwardly and didn’t say anything more.
Half an hour later, the two arrived at the Ten Mile Bridge outside northern suburbs.
“Master, stop right here.”
Brenda pointed to a fork in the road ahead, and said.
The cab stopped, Brenda paid and the two got out.
Street lights were installed along the roadside, and she strolled with Brenda, both of them, against the moonlight and a star-filled sky.
The night was beautiful.
“Ms. Hale, don’t you hate me for what happened last time?”
Brenda couldn’t resist asking.
“What’s the use of hating you? Can hating you change everything? It’s already happened, you can only move on.”
“Yeah, you can only look forward.”
Brenda removed her sunglasses, raised her eyes to the sky, and sighed, “I hope, you never hate me.”
Suddenly sigh, is walking Adriana pace a meal, harsh cold eyes skewed to Brenda.
A bad feeling was born.
Adriana frowned warily, subconsciously looked around, keenly heard in addition to the low sound of insects, but also some small sounds.
However, it is not because of the sound made by the wind blowing the blades of grass.
“Brenda, are you counting on me again?”
She lightly reprimanded, her hand yanked, ripped the person directly over, but in the blink of an eye, there was an extra spring-loaded knife in her hand, the blade against Brenda’s neck.
“Come out, who the hell is it?”
She strangled Brenda’s neck and surveyed the surrounding area, looking around.
Hula-la-la-la
The blades of grass hooted and hollered, and in the blink of an eye seven or eight men in suits came out of the crowd, each of them murderous.
“Ms. Hale, I’m sorry, I’m sorry …”
Watching those people walk out, Brenda’s eyes were heavy and tears came to her eyes.
“Sorry? Oh, bringing me here to die and now apologizing to me? Does it make sense?”
Adriana was amused by Brenda’s words.
“Who is it that tried to kill me several times, should they come out and show their faces?” Facing death, Adriana was not as nervous, scared, or afraid as those people thought.
Instead, they all were impressed by the calmness they displayed.
Snapping-
The applause rang out.
A man came out of the darkness, he was dressed in a large black robe, a loose cap covering half of his face, it was impossible to see the original face.
Adriana waggled her eyebrows and stared at the visitor without blinking.
It wasn’t until he came under the streetlight that it became clear that the man was … Brenden.
Brenden?
“It’s you?”
Five years ago back to Waverly, that time to meet Brenda, three times a lot of things happened, Peter repeatedly warned her to be careful of Brenda.
Then time and time again, Brenda did not appear other abnormal, Adriana put down the defenses.
But I didn’t expect her to hide so deeply, the master behind the curtain is actually Brenden!
“Surprised?”
Brenden walked up to Adriana and raised his hand to lift his hood with a sinister smile.
“So, the last kidnapping, was also your intention?”
“No, no, no, how.”
Peter folded his hands on his abdomen, looked at Adriana, circled around her and said with a sigh of frustration, “Whether it was five years ago or now, if I didn’t have to, I would never have done it to you.”
“Why should I believe you?”
Adriana’s dagger was always pressed against Brenda’s neck.
But at the moment she feels a bit redundant.
In accordance with Brenden’s nature, she died today or not, Brenda’s survival is not very meaningful, a discarded child, how much value can there be.
“Believe it or not.”
Brenden stood in front of her, “I was going to save you for last, but you have to die now.”
