This comment was intentionally made to Old Mr. Soto.
In fact, Peter is not afraid of death, he is more afraid that Adriana will die.
It was Adriana who sacrificed everything for his peace, and now Adriana is falling into the vortex.
“Adriana has guessed Ruth’s intentions. Do you think, if Ruth doesn’t show up, she’ll really go to Obren? We can wait and see.”
Peter dropped his last words and turned around to leave the ward.
The anger in his heart was hard to calm.
On the one hand is the woman he loves and on the other is his wife’s parents.
Peter does not know how to get along with them, but in terms of everything that has happened so far, Adriana and Harlee will not accept, and Peter naturally can not accept their way of doing things.
He stepped out and found Harlee standing in the doorway, cigarette in hand, puffing away at one.
The two men looked at each other, neither spoke, nor did they move to go upstairs.
Harlee smoked several puffs of cigarettes, lips swallowing clouds, not much longer curl up the cigarette will hover under the ceiling, a long time did not dissipate.
He flicked the ashes of his cigarette and let out a puzzled sigh, “What do we do now? What the hell do Ruth and the others mean?”
Peter shook his head, “What is Obren’s situation now, we are not very clear. what exactly is Ruth’s intention we know even less.”
“Damn it!”
The more Harlee thought about it, the angrier she became, “They just don’t deserve to be parents.”
Unacceptable and unforgivable.
He never thought he would be in the situation he is in now after finding his biological parents.
Couldn’t help but scratch her hair, very agitated, “The most pitiful one is Adriana, how come she is so miserable?”
After saying that, seeing that Peter didn’t say anything, he then asked, “What about you, what do you really think?”
“You tell me.”
Peter gave an indifferent glance at Harlee and gave an ambiguous answer.
What will he do?
Of course I would insist on taking Adriana to Obren, but would I want to keep her here to suffer all the time?
The two stayed downstairs for a while and then went upstairs.
Back in Adriana’s ward, Adriana had eaten quite a bit and was resting against the bed, looking slightly better.
“Are you full?”
Peter stepped forward, concerned.
“Well, the meal was delicious, and I ate a little too much.”
Adriana grinned, a smile from the heart, very sweet, very natural, but also very well hidden those under the eyes of the heart.
“It’s good to have enough to eat. If you like, my brother will give it to you every day in the future.”
Harlee sat on the end of the bed and smiled.
“You? Forget it, if you have time to stay here with me, why don’t you hurry back to stay with your sister-in-law?”
She flirted with it.
“I don’t need you to worry about my business.”
Harlee calmed down, not as angry as she had just been downstairs.
Peter helped Adriana clear the table, then pulled out another tissue to wipe the soup stains that hadn’t been wiped from the corners of her lips.
The intimate movements and ambiguous manners warmed Adriana’s heart.
She raised her eyes to look at the man in front of her, smiling like a flower, “honey, thanks.”
“Fool, I’m your husband, no need to say these rusty words to me.”
The man rubbed her head, “Sit and rest for a while, I’ll get you a glass of water.”
He cleaned up the trash can, carried it out to avoid the smell in the bedroom, then washed his hands and poured a glass of water for Adriana on the way.
“Here, warm water, it’s not hot.”
“Well, honey is so nice.”
Adriana took the water, took a sip, then said, “honey, you and Harlee and Zac you’ve been here all night, hurry back and rest.”
It’s the middle of winter and it’s only hazily light outside, even though it’s already after seven in the morning.
The dawn of winter always comes so late.
Waiting for the heart to pine.
“Okay, then I’ll go back to rest …”
Zac got a little sleepy and yawned.
Before I could finish my sentence, I heard Peter say, “I’m not sleepy, so I’ll stay here with you.”
“Your sister-in-law is coming over later, so what am I going back for?”
Harlee also said.
Zac skimmed his lips, in turn, he looked a little embarrassed.
“Zac, you go back, I’ll be fine here.”
Peter looked back at Zac, “Get well.”
He was also injured, should go back to rest is bound to go back to rest.
“Okay, good. That’s fine, I’ll go back first.”
Zac was so sleepy and injured that he wanted to go back to rest now.
After Zac left, the ward recoiled into silence.
Each of the three men had something on his mind and no one spoke.
It seems to be afraid that if one person speaks, it will break the rare peace.
In the morning, Eliza came to visit Adriana with some nutritional products.
This was the first time the two met six months after Eliza left Waverly.
“Sister-in-law, you’re here?”
Eliza has long hair, her complexion is not as dark as before, her long chestnut hair is slightly curly, with a set of black trench coat and knitted cap, the whole person adds a few feminine taste.
Compared to the Eliza who was acting crazy and foolish when we first met her, she is now as beautiful as a different person.
“Adri? How are you doing, are you okay?”
Eliza walked over and sat down, taking her hand affectionately, “I blame your brother for only telling me about you now, otherwise I would have come over to see you.”
“It’s okay, I’m fine.”
Adriana smiled, then surveyed Eliza’s belly and asked, “How many months now?”
Just the other day Harlee said that Eliza was pregnant.
Her brother will soon be a father, and she will soon become an aunt, not without following the joy.
“It’s still early, more than three months.”
“That was quick too. Is your appetite okay now, and do you get pregnant and throw up?”
“A little, but not strongly.”
“That’s good. It was really too bad when I was pregnant with Helen, I couldn’t stop throwing up.”
…
When two women meet, they talk about nothing but those things.
Peter and Harlee couldn’t interrupt, so they sat quietly on the sidelines.
From time to time, cut some fruit and hand it over, and sometimes bring tea and water, very attentive.
And the two women seem to be enjoying themselves and have been chatting very enthusiastically, directly forgetting the two people sitting on the sidelines.
On the contrary, Peter is enjoying the current scene.
Or maybe it’s just that wherever Adriana is, it’s wonderful, not about anything, as long as she’s around.
It was not until noon that Peter gave a look toward Harlee, who said, “Eliza, Adri needs to rest, let’s go back first.”
“It’s okay, I’m not sleepy.”
Adriana shook her head.
It was hard to meet with my sister-in-law, and I haven’t finished my words yet.
“Adri, get some rest, I’ll come back this afternoon.”
Eliza got up, touched her stomach, made a random excuse and said, “I’m hungry too and would like Harlee to go out for some dinner with me.”
“Oh, yes, yes, yes. You’re the mother of a child now, you must take care of your health.”
Adriana smiled and immediately waved to Harlee, “Hurry up and make sure you take good care of your sister-in-law, or you will be the only one to ask.”
