“It’s been a long time.”
Solomon looked at Harlee and raised an eyebrow, his clenched fist hand slamming lightly on his chest, a unique way for men to meet each other.
“What’s your relationship with Peter?”
“What do you think?”
“Don’t tell me he’s your boss.”
“Uh huh, other than that, what other explanation can there be?”
Solomon laughed.
That meaning is self-explanatory.
“Peter, the hell with you!”
Getting the truth, Harlee got angry and threw a punch towards Peter.
Peter glanced out of the corner of his eye and raised his hand to hold his fist directly, “You’re the one who’s too stupid to have anything to do with me.”
“I … you …!”
He shook off Peter’s hand, pointed at him in anger, nodded, held his face red, and didn’t say a word for half a day.
Anger.
A sense of shame of being crushed surged to the surface.
Thinking about the disdain for Peter, and looking at the Peter standing in front of him, I felt a pang of heartbreak.
To know the initial arrangements for Adrianato go to the unnamed island, wasted a lot of effort, and thought that Adriana to hide Peter never find her.
Now he realizes that he was the one who thought he was right.
The person who is extremely vocal on the unnamed island is none other than Solomon, and now I know that Solomon is Peter’s man.
In this way, just think how amazing the power lurking behind Peter is.
“You knew all along that Adriana was on the unnamed island?”
“Of course he knows.”
Not waiting for Peter to answer, Solomon said beforehand: “Not only that, every time you appear in unnamed island, he knows.”
“What about the time … put Adri on a mission?”
It was the one that put Adriana on the mission to assassinate Alvin.
It’s really just a chance to try it out.
Solomon laughs and doesn’t say anything.
The answer is obvious.
Harlee clenched her back teeth and nodded, glaring angrily at Peter, crying and laughing.
Anger.
Incredibly angry, he didn’t even know what to say.
Regardless of the second thought, there was some confusion, “Why did you let her get hurt when you were right on the unnamed island?”
“You’re not looking for Ruth?”
Peter avoided answering Harlee’s question.
At that time he knew that his days were numbered and let Adriana train every time on the unnamed island in the hope that she would grow up as soon as possible and learn more skills and means to protect herself as soon as possible.
Then there will be all kinds of future.
“Peter, I’ll settle this with you later!”
He was suffocating in his heart, but he was no match for Peter, and was helpless to put in a harsh word.
The two walked to the entrance of the villa and the bodyguards opened the villa gate.
Walk in and go straight into the villa lobby.
The hall was quiet, and the two men swept through the living room, their eyes fixed on the two sitting on the couch.
One is Archie and one is … Ruth.
Harlee has met Archie many times and is familiar with him, so to speak.
But Ruth is very new to the world.
Today she, sharp short hair, well-maintained face slightly powdered, very youthful, with a sense of heroism between the eyebrows, valiant.
The whole person does not have the warmth and gentleness of a woman, but instead looks more capable and handsome.
The first time I met her, her appearance took Harlee a little by surprise.
I thought she should be a woman with long hair up, heavy makeup but elegant, but it turned out to be just the opposite.
“You’re here?”
Seeing Peter and Harlee both walk in, Archie stood up and said rather politely, “Come, come, come and sit down.”
He gestures to the couch, then his gaze falls on Harlee’s.
Although the two do not spend much time together, and even Harlee has a heavy hostility towards him, but from Archie’s eyes there is a kind of doting fatherly affinity.
The melancholy eyes carry a faint sadness.
Mostly in Archie’s mind, he also felt guilty about Harlee and Adriana.
“Harlee?”
Ruth saw Harlee and got up and walked towards him.
“You stand still!”
Before she could even get close to Harlee, she saw Harlee pointing directly at her and yelling.
“I …”
Ruth wrinkled her eyebrows, her face tinged with a slightly complicated look, inscrutable.
“You what you? I ask you, where have you been these days? Now that you have returned to Waverly, why don’t you come out and meet us, do you know how much Adri has suffered and how much she has sinned alone?”
As an older brother, his heart really goes out to Adriana for what she is going through now.
Peter stood aside and walked over to the couch to sit down, seemingly not wanting to get involved in the family’s argument.
In the end, Adrianais the child of Ruth and Archie, and now that she is married to Adriana, they are considered family.
Only, Peter doesn’t seem to have a good feeling about her … either.
“There are some things that you don’t know that I don’t have the means to tell you.”
“Yeah, Harlee, you should be considerate of her.”
Archie looked at Ruth with a sad face and felt a bit sorry for her, so he spoke up for her.
“You shut up!”
Harlee chided once again, “I’m understanding? I’d like to ask, when Adri and I were suffering, who was considerate of her? You, or you?”
He reached out and pointed at the two men, asking aggressively.
It’s too much.
Where in the world can you find parents like Ruth and Archie?
If you are born and not raised, then why do you need to be born?
“I know that girl Adri is pathetic. But this is fate, she is Obren’s future young master, there are some things she has to go through. If not, how can she carry the burden that big in the future?”
“Bullshit!”
Harlee, who was in a bad mood, couldn’t help but blurt out, “What life, bullshit life! You said she can be the young master, did you go through her consent? Have you ever thought about whether she is willing? Look at the life she lived when she was a child, and now look at it, you are simply pushing her to the brink of extinction! You can’t find people as heartless as you two in the whole world!”
“Stop it you!”
As soon as Harlee’s words left her mouth, Archie growled in anger, then took Ruth in his arms, clasped one hand behind her head and patted her on the back with the other, “Ruth, don’t be mad, Harlee is just a child, she doesn’t know what to say.”
Ruth snuggled into Archie’s arms, head buried in his chest, did not speak, but from her trembling form can be seen, should be very angry, the heart is very sad.
“Don’t act in front of me, it’s disgusting to watch. archie, you have a family and a wife of your own, what’s with hugging ruth now?”
Archie is The Alston family old man adopted child, so many years in The Alston family to put it nicely is honest and honest people, to put it badly, is a coward, loser.
Many years ago broke up with Ruth, it is surprising that the two are still hugging now, it is … disgusting!
“Young master, sir, you want to drink … ah, come guests. peter came?”
Speak of the devil, speak of the devil.
Harlee was just thinking about Archie’s wife when she saw a woman walk in outside the living room.
