Hank’s eyes flashed and he subconsciously gulped.
Unaware that none of those subtle movements escaped Peter’s eyes, “Say.”
The word “shy” is a word, commanding tone, with a sharp edge hidden under the eyes.
That look made Hank wince a little.
He skimmed, immediately said: “It is … your body has not yet recovered, need to quietly recuperate at home, if the FE side needs someone to go over, I can go over.”
In any case, the real physical state of the boss can not tell him, if not, it will be with Ms. Hale said that Peter will not cooperate with the treatment.
He admitted that this time it was really selfish.
But he is all for the good of the boss.
Peter looked at Hank’s gaze deeper and deeper, pupils deeper and deeper hidden sharpness, cold face more and more cold.
“Okay, it’s settled.”
After saying that, he asked, “How are Luis and Helen’s kids doing?”
“With Giovanny protecting them all the time, it’s safe, boss don’t worry.”
Hank was so concerned about Peter’s health that he couldn’t let him get away with anything other than his condition.
“When is Harlee and Eliza’s wedding?”
He jumped from topic to topic, making it a little hard for Hank to keep up.
“May 20.”
Although Hank is Peter’s special assistant, he knows that Peter has always arranged someone from FE around him to investigate things for him.
I’m sure he knew about Harlee getting married from that same person.
Hank’s heart secretly sighs, good thing that person does not know the secret between Ruth and Adriana and Peter, otherwise told Peter, that’s still necessary.
“Go tell Harlee that the wedding will take place at Asnana Hotel and I’ll take care of all the expenses. Also, go hire Motril’s famous wedding designer, FE 400 A-list members, and …”
Peter instructed Hank on many things, each and every one of them important.
For a moment, Hank was a bit baffled, “Boss, the preparations are so grand, are you going to have a wedding?”
At the end of the sentence, Peter shot a stern gaze straight over, “You’ve been talking a lot lately.”
“Yes, I’ll get right on it.”
Hank bristled, not daring to say anything else.
Café.
Adriana drove to a cafe where Alvin often drank coffee, and just walked in and found Alvin on the second floor by the window.
“Alvin?”
She called out and walked towards him, “It’s been some days since I’ve seen you, how is your leg recovering?”
When he saw Adriana coming, Alvin smiled warmly, his sunny and handsome face looked slightly haggard, and there was a haze between his eyebrows that could not be brushed away.
He was not in a good mood.
Adriana only took one look at it and had a guess in her mind.
“It’s doing rehab and should be ready to go in a short while.”
After all, the last injury was so severe, how could it be so easy to start walking normally?
“Here, happy birthday.”
Adriana carries a black box and places it in front of Alvin’s face.
The man was a little surprised, “You still remember my birthday?”
The previous birthdays are several brothers with him, and now each have things to do busy, but will forget him.
“It was honey who told me that it was a token of both our hearts, and honey specifically instructed me to buy it.”
Adriana knows that Peter and the others have a very good relationship and Peter has been sick and in poor health lately.
Plus, she just woke up not long ago and had a lot to deal with, so naturally she forgot about Alvin’s birthday. In order not to make Alvin sad, she said that Peter had instructed her to buy it.
“Thanks.”
Alvin accepted the gift with a small smile and asked, “How about him, is he doing better today?”
“The state is quite good, but the body is too badly injured before, and it can’t be rushed to recover.”
“That’s true.”
He nodded in approval.
“Looking for you to come over today …”
Alvin frowned and his grip on the delicately carved cup tightened, “Adri, I’m leaving.”
“Go? Where to?”
Adriana didn’t understand where Alvin was going, but she knew that with Alvin’s nature, it was only a matter of time before he would leave Waverly.
“Not necessarily, the world is so big, you can go anywhere.”
He smiled calmly, “I asked you to come here today because I want to apologize to you for what happened to Brenda. I know the consequences she caused are irreversible, but I just hope you can forget about that.”
At the mention of Brenda, the smile on Adriana’s cheeks disappeared.
The waiter brought up a cup of coffee, placed it in front of Adriana, turned around and left.
Adriana took a small sip of coffee and sighed, “She’s dead, there’s no point in apologizing or not. But you, you can’t forget her?”
The previous Alvin, although also sentimental and kind-hearted, would not be blindly overly forgiving of a person.
Apparently, Brenda didn’t know what to do that affected Alvin.
“In fact, Brenda is a kind girl at heart. But it was forced to be threatened by Brenden.”
“Heh, Brenden again, he’s really good at catching people in the act.”
Both Brenda and himself have been pawns in Brenden’s hands and used by him.
Alvin didn’t say anything else and the two sat together for a while.
Adriana saw that he was not in a good mood and immediately said: “You should not be too sad, as far as Brenda is concerned, her death is a relief if she is subjected to the daily constraints.”
A man as beastly as Brenden has no mercy for anyone.
She could understand Brenda’s situation, but could not accept it, much less forgive it.
“I’m leaving this time, and I don’t know when I’ll see you again next time.”
Alvin raised his eyes and looked at Adriana, his deep gaze made Adriana a little uncomfortable, immediately lowered his head and stirred his coffee with a spoon.
The gentleman across the table said in a shallow voice: “Adri, I wish you happiness. Big brother is a man worth trusting and he will treat you well. His devotion and dedication will make you the happiest woman.”
Alvin’s heart is slightly regretful, blame only the year in the school did not cherish Adriana.
Once an opportunity is missed, it will never be had again.
This, will be the biggest regret of his life.
“Senior, I wish you happiness, too.”
Adriana smiled and sighed, “Actually I envy you, you can do whatever you want to do according to your own character. Among all the people I’ve met, you are the most spontaneous.”
Alvin laughs and doesn’t say anything.
The coffee was picked up and the head was tilted to look out of the window, and for a moment, sad emotions flowed from the eyes, causing heartache.
He, too, wants a woman who truly loves each other to bind him for life.
Nah, it’s not available.
The two talked for a long time before they separated.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Adriana received the news that Alvin was gone.
“Gone? Why did you leave without saying anything?”
All along, Alvin has been good to her, and she has taken it to heart, treating Alvin like a brother.
Alvin was even hurt repeatedly because of her, and Adriana felt guilty.
Now I heard from Peter that Alvin had left, and I was inexplicably a little sad.
