Only in the face of Alvin’s question, Zac really didn’t know how to answer, just looked back at Hank, and the two looked at each other, both gesturing for the other to speak.
As a result, no one squealed.
On the contrary, Alvin noticed the clues and asked after him, “Where is Adri, shouldn’t Adri be with her big brother at this time?”
“She …”
Zac touched his nose and said with some embarrassment, “It’s her … she left with Raylan, all … before the angry big brother vomited blood and went into the hospital.”
“What do you mean?”
His words were so informative that Alvin had some difficulty digesting them, frowning tightly with a nervous look on his face, subconsciously reaching out to squeeze Zac’s shoulder, “What do you mean, ‘she went away with Raylan’?”
In fact, the words are already very obvious, but Alvin simply can not believe it and can not accept it.
After all, no one in his mind knew better Adriana’s heart for Peter.
“Alvin, you have been gone for more than six months, and a lot of things have happened in these six months. You can’t guess, can’t imagine, and can’t anticipate. But the fact is, Adriana is gone with Raylan.”
Since Alvin didn’t know anything, he simply concealed the factual situation.
One less person to know is also a guarantee.
If one day, Alvin gets emotional and tells Peter everything, I’m afraid I’ll lose all my work.
“What are you babbling about.”
Alvin froze, then laughed and pushed Zac away, sticking his hands in his long down jacket pockets and crying, “That kind of joke doesn’t mean anything.”
In a remote place, despite the closed transportation, he was later able to watch TV, on which he ‘witnessed’ the grand wedding between his elder brother and Adriana.
That wedding was a real throwaway.
Moreover, according to his understanding of Adriana, a woman who loves her big brother to the core, how could she go with Raylan in the end?
He thought that Zac was joking.
Zac shrugged helplessly, spread his hands, looked back at Hank and raised his eyebrows, “How about this, I told you he wouldn’t even believe me when I told him that.”
“Alvin, what Zac said is true. I was there and watched Adriana and Raylan both leave, angry at the boss spitting blood from his mouth, and then he was sent to the hospital.”
His face was serious and his words were not a fake.
If Alvin doesn’t believe Zac, then he should believe Hank.
After all, Hank is Peter’s close friend and his word is very credible.
“No way, no how.”
Alvin took a few steps back, and despite accepting the unacceptable ‘truth’ in his heart, his mouth did not want to believe it.
He looked sideways at the door of the ward, pushed it open and walked in.
Inside the ward, Peter lay quietly in bed, hanging on to a drip.
Alvin walked to Peter’s side, looked at him in his sleep, and couldn’t help but ask, “Is big brother really healed? It looks like he really looks much better.”
Alvin knew about the things that had happened to Peter and the treatment he had received, but did not expect the results to be so dramatic.
His sentiment did not make Hank and Zac happy, instead, the two of them looked at me, I looked at you, neither said anything.
Because Peter’s body, really, is what Adriana gave half her life for.
And now, they can’t tell Alvin the truth yet, ‘framing’ Adriana, making them feel more and more guilty inside.
“What’s wrong with you guys at …?”
Noticing that the two of them looked bad, Alvin asked after them.
The two walked over to the couch and stayed surprisingly quiet in unison. Alvin always felt like there was a lot going on that he wasn’t aware of, so he took his phone and called Adriana.
Standing in the hallway, he held his phone, dialed Adriana’s number and asked, “Adri, it’s Alvin.”
“Senior, I heard you’re back?”
On the other side of the phone, Adriana’s voice sounded normal and seemed unharmed.
“Well, I’m back and being … oooh …”
Because he knew Alvin was going to call with Adriana, Zac followed him out, and as soon as he heard that he was almost about to expose Peter, he simply covered his mouth, snatched the phone away and hung up the phone.
“Zac, let go of me, what are you doing?”
Alvin frowned tightly, not understanding what Zac was up to.
“What do you … you … have nothing to call Adriana for? I have told you that Adriana is with Raylan now, you are calling Adriana now to say so much because you want to win her sympathy and make her come to visit big brother?”
Zac glared at him, questioningly.
Alvin was slow to speak.
“I’m telling you, that woman is ungrateful, she knows that boss’s health is not good, so she couldn’t hold herself back after getting married to him and got together with Raylan, and was caught by boss on the spot!”
In a fit of anger, Zac had to tell Alvin about the ‘factual situation’, roughly hoping that he would be clear about the situation and not call Adriana again.
“No way, what are you talking nonsense? I’ve known Adri for over ten years, she would never be that kind of person.”
Alvin trusted his own judgment and trusted Adriana so much that he knew there was absolutely no way Adriana could be that kind of person.
“What is absolutely impossible? Big brother and Hank were both present, how can there be a fake?”
Zac yelled.
Hank also came out, stood aside and nodded, “Yes, I saw it with my boss’s own eyes. There will be no fake!”
With Hank ‘testifying’, Alvin’s lips were slightly open, all the words came to his lips but he couldn’t say them.
His astonished gaze wandered over the two, trying to digest the sudden news, but no matter what, he didn’t believe it.
“No way, absolutely no way. I’m going to go to her and ask for clarification.”
He snatched the phone from Zac’s hand and turned around to leave.
“Stand still!”
Zac growled and walked up to Alvin, blocking his way, “What’s the point of asking? The reason the boss didn’t make it public was because he was thinking about the two kids. After all, Helen and Luis are already grown up, if those unpleasant things are made public now, what will the two children do?”
“Yeah, Zac’s got a point. I think the boss would think the same thing.”
The two men had a hard time singing a double act.
Inwardly, she apologized to Adriana one after another and felt doubly guilty.
The woman who clearly saved the boss, hard by their incessant ‘choreography’, will be so bad she said.
“Boss just said that he doesn’t want Adriana to know about his hospitalization and doesn’t want Adriana to turn around to see him because she’s worried about him. You can go to Adriana, but you must not say that boss is hospitalized. It’s a matter of big brother’s dignity, and if Adriana comes, I’m afraid the two will fight again.”
“A big fight? They got into a fight?”
Alvin was beyond shocked.
You know Peter never hits on women, and now Hank is saying he hit on Adriana?
