“honey~!”
Adriana pushed Peter away as soon as she could, not wanting to get close to him.
She is already a mature woman and will have a thirst for a certain aspect that cannot withstand Peter’s teasing.
“I’m really running out of time.”
He explained with a smile, but found that the man’s face was not very good.
Adriana had a few moments of helplessness cupped his cheek and kissed him on the cheek, “Come back, when I come back, I promise you whatever you want.”
“Really?”
Peter’s gloomy face has moderated in due course.
“What am I lying to you about.”
She stood up and lifted her wrist to check her wristwatch time, “Honey, I really have to go, bye.”
Pretending to be anxious to leave the study, when closing the study door, Adriana looked at Peter, who was sitting in the executive chair keeping a motion stiff and motionless, and could not stop frowning tightly.
honey, I’m sorry.
Adriana felt very guilty and knew that Peter had given a lot in this relationship, but now his health was critical and Adriana did not want to give up halfway.
Back in her bedroom, she simply packed some clothes and went downstairs with her luggage.
Standing in the compound downstairs, the wind and snow remained, ruffling her long hair.
Adriana looked up at the study, and there was no sign of Peter in front of the study window.
She frowned, pulled open the limo door and got in.
“Let’s go.”
The driver escorted Adriana directly to the airport, where Adriana took the nearest flight straight to Floedan.
A few hours later, arrived in Floedan.
Just off the plane, Peter made a phone call.
“Are we there yet?”
Gentle as always.
“Well, it just arrived.”
“I’m … sorry for not being in control of my emotions today.”
Peter apologized to Adriana on the other end of the phone.
“What are you talking about, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with you. Remember to rest early at night, I have to be busy.”
“Hmm.”
Hanging up the phone, Adriana reached out to hail a cab.
I got a call from Zac just as I got in the car, “You’re in Floedan?”
“It is.”
“Harlee and your sister-in-law are over there, should I ask them to come over and keep you company?”
“No, I can do it alone.”
“What are you kidding? Don’t you know what kind of physical condition you are in?”
“Precisely because I know very well, I don’t need anyone around me.”
“Adriana, you …”
“Zac, you really talk a lot of crap, hang up.”
Adriana hung up straight away and then the phone was in off mode.
For the past five months, every time it came to the day that Peter became ill she chose to leave and her phone was turned off.
In Peter’s view, Adriana was only trying to avoid the pain and misery of his illness, fearing that she would worry too much about him.
So Peter is acquiescent.
Little did he know that Peter was also ill when Adriana was ill.
Previously, Adriana was in very good health, so she was able to pull through each time, but five months of non-stop blood draws had brought her body to the brink of collapse.
Adriana doesn’t know how long it will last, but as long as it lasts a day that’s a day.
“Where to?”
The cab driver asked once and got no response, so he asked again.
“Asnana Hotel.”
Asnana Hotel is Peter’s hotel, and she chooses to stay here whenever there is an Asnana Hotel in the city she travels to.
Because Adriana knows that Peter will definitely investigate where she went after she left, and to reassure him, Adriana doesn’t want to go somewhere secluded.
Arriving at the Asnana Hotel, Adriana checked in at the front desk before pulling her luggage towards the elevator.
“Adriana?”
Near the New Year, the hotel was so crowded and a bit noisy that Adriana thought it was a hallucination.
“Adri?”
Once again, her name was called, and Adriana heard it clearly.
Once he turned around, his eyes swept through the hotel lobby and finally landed on the lounge area, only then did he see a familiar person sitting on the sofa in the lounge area … Raylan!
It was the first time she had seen Raylan after a five-month hiatus.
In a gray trench coat with a scarf, he got up and walked towards her.
The slender figure is more prominent under the trench coat, the handsome look is comparable to a supermodel, there is a natural nobility.
However, he was accompanied by a short-haired woman.
Short-haired woman with flaming red lips, red tassel earrings, leopard print jacket, a very wild line.
The original somewhat abrupt attire, in favor of her wear is so natural and fashionable, through the imperial model.
“Raylan, what are you doing here?”
Adriana was very surprised to see him and walked towards him, “Long time no see.”
Raylan spread her hands and Adriana walked over to her and gave her an affectionate hug before letting go.
“It’s been a long time.”
Raylan removed his silver gray sunglasses and hung them on the pocket of his trench coat with a gentle touch.
Turning to introduce the woman beside her, “Siena.”
“Oh, you’re Siena, I’ve heard a lot about you.”
Adriana pursed her lips, walked over and shook her hand, “Hello.”
“Hello.”
Siena shook her hand and looked Adriana up and down, “Peter’s eye … is not bad.”
“You and honey know each other?”
Adriana then realized that Siena knew Peter.
“Awareness.”
Siena only said one thing and did not reveal much information.
And then his eyes looked around at the two, “I still have some things to take care of, you guys talk.”
She waved towards Adriana, turned around and walked away.
For her departure, Raylan didn’t even give her a look.
That kind of reaction was a bit surprising to Adriana, but it felt very normal for a man of Raylan’s thin skin to react that way.
“How did you know I was here?”
Adriana asked him.
He laughed, “I just happened to be waiting for a client here, and I ended up being stood up by the client, who knew I’d run into you.”
Speaking of which, the man raised an eyebrow, “It’s not a bad deal.”
Adriana smiled and raised the room card in her hand, “Come on up and say it.”
The two got into the elevator.
Adriana stood by Raylan’s side, after a little more than half a year’s absence, not a single text message, let alone a phone call, had been sent between the two.
Even if we don’t see each other for a long time, there is no strangeness.
Adriana asked, “How is it going, how is the company doing now?”
“It’s okay, the new company is on track, not bad.” Raylan said as he stood beside her.
“I can see that it must be hard to be waiting for a client so late. Did you have dinner?”
“Not yet.”
“Just in time, I haven’t eaten either, let’s join.”
Adriana is kindly invited.
Not seeing Raylan for too long, remembering his initial feelings for her, and her own deliberate indifference to him for six months made Adriana feel a little guilty and self-conscious.
But the long pain is better than the short pain, she still thinks that time can wash away everything, if it can make Raylan forget her is the best choice.
“Good.”
Raylan readily agreed.
The two went up to the top floor and entered the suite.
