The little woman’s hand clutching the medicine bottle tightened and finally tucked the bottle into her pocket, “That book just now didn’t have what I was looking for.”
The bookshelves are placed in horizontal rows, with the aisle facing his desk.
Vivian walked through row after row of bookshelves, flipping through books while sneaking glances at the man over there.
She could not imagine what kind of fortitude could make him endure the injuries on his body.
It hurts just to look at it, let alone Edward.
Vivian held a book in her hand and opened it casually, but her eyes were on the shelf, wondering what she was thinking.
Hoo~
Suddenly, there was a heat next to the ear.
She turned around with a jerk and found that Edward had stood behind her at some point.
Vivian’s little face turned white, “Why are you walking without a sound?”
Edward put his hands in his trouser pockets and looked down at her, “It’s obvious you’re the one who’s distracted.”
“What … distractions, I … I’m watching …”
A ‘book’ word did not finish, Vivian immediately closed the book in his hand, directly behind his back.
Because she was holding a German book, and the books were held upside down.
That invisible flow of embarrassment made Vivian very uncomfortable, and she said with her head down in some panic, “I just want to find a book.”
“Looking for what book?”
“Books about criminal law.”
“Coincidentally, what I just brought you is the complete book of criminal law.”
Vivian: “…”
She didn’t even look at the book when she got it, so she didn’t know what book Edward had brought her.
Rather, it makes it awkward now.
“Oh, then I’ll go back and see.”
Vivian stepped around him to leave.
As a result, before she could even take a step, she was dragged back by Edward and hugged.
It was a gentle hug, Edward just found her pockets filled with bulging things, reaching out to pull out, Vivian a cover, but her speed how to resist the speed of Edward?
The man rudely pulled out the pocket, which was found to be a bottle of ointment, with the effects clearly written on it: reduce pain and stop bleeding, remove marks and no scars.
“For me?”
Edward asked.
“No. …”
Vivian wanted to refuse, but the words filtered through her mind and she immediately changed her tone and said, “Yes, it’s for you. Thank you for keeping me for the sake of the baby.”
The man’s lips just held a smile, but the moment is clear to cloudy.
A handsome and compelling face became gloomy and appalling, hand clutching the ointment, and then lifted her hand and stuffed the ointment into her hand, “So, don’t feel moved, and don’t feel guilty, because your value is only in the child’s body. Vivian, remember clearly, the reason for getting a license with you is to keep others from laughing at my child as an illegitimate child, not Because I have feelings for you. Women are like clothes, when have you ever seen me in love with any piece of clothing?”
When he finished, he turned around and walked towards the desk.
Vivian’s heart sank suddenly, looking down at the ointment in her hand, she couldn’t help but snicker.
Vivian ah Vivian, you can really be self-absorbed, deserve to be despised.
“Really, it seems we have the same idea.”
She held the medicine bottle, casually drew a book and walked towards the study door, saying as she walked, “Don’t worry, I won’t get involved in your love life, just maintain a good surface peace.”
Bang–
The door of the study was closed with a slight force, and the door made a loud noise, enough to prove Vivian’s displeasure.
There was a trash can in the hallway aisle. Vivian walked over, then took two steps back and threw the pill bottle directly into the trash can.
…
Asnana villa.
After the meal, Peter and Adriana both went to the study.
Since both of them had work to do, they ordered a new desk to be set up next to Peter’s in order not to interfere with the work situation.
Usually work, both are very quiet, try not to disturb each other, but free time but can see each other quietly working, is undoubtedly a kind of enjoyment.
Adriana finished all the company’s documents and then picked up her cell phone and made a call, “Rene, the documents have been processed, come back to Asnana villa and pick them up.”
After the order was given, he hung up the phone directly.
Only after she put down the phone did she find Peter leaning against the executive chair, a cup of tea in his hand, his gaze eerily fixed on her.
Her red lips pulled out a smile as she got up and walked over, extending a hand.
Peter put down his tea, took her hand and gently brought it, and the little woman sat in his arms, leaning on his chest.
“Honey, the company is now idle and will soon be on vacation. How about our family going abroad for New Year’s Eve this year?”
I have known Peter for many years, but only once spent New Year’s together, that time was Peter was sent to the police station, she went with Alvin and Edward and two children to accompany Peter.
But that New Year’s Eve dinner didn’t end well either.
“Good. Everything is at your disposal.”
Peter nodded his head in agreement.
Adriana leaned into his arms and looked up at him, reaching out to touch his short scruff, “Ever feel like you have an older man’s look now?”
His hair is casual and loose, with a short beard, leaning lazily in the executive chair, his handsome face emerges with a smile, revealing a row of white shellfish teeth, extremely attractive.
“What, now you think I’m ugly?”
His long fingers picked up her chin, “It’s not like our Adriana is getting tired of the old, is it?”
“Who said that, I just think you’re more attractive.”
“Did Adriana eat honey today?”
“Huh? No, no.”
“Then why is the mouth so sweet?”
Adriana: “…”
Staring at him blankly, she couldn’t help but snort out a laugh, “Peter, you’re killing me, what kind of corny love story is this.”
“No?”
“I like it, I like it, I’m just not used to it.”
Adriana hugged him and closed her eyes, “honey, this business trip is estimated to take several days to return, the foreign side is ready, when the time comes, you first take mom, Jimmy, Sloane and the children to go there first, I will go over to you when I am done.”
“Why not together?”
“I’m not just busy with work.”
Adriana opened her eyes, glanced at him and reached out to tug on his beard, “Wouldn’t you rather go over there earlier and elaborately set up and prepare a big surprise for me.”
“Good idea.”
Peter nodded his head in approval.
“Okay then, it’s getting late, the plane flight is coming up, I have to go first.”
Adriana got up, and just as she stood up, Peter tugged her down and leaned in for a kiss.
“Well …”
Her eyes widened as the sudden tenderness made her a little uncomfortable.
For several months, although with Peter, but both people are extremely restrained themselves, not even once too intimate relations.
God knows what kind of perseverance and self-control it was, and the two were tortured incomparably.
