Zac waited outside while Peter entered the villa.
Meet Archie in the lobby of the villa.
Peter walked straight to the hall sofa and sat down, gazed at Archie with cold eyes, and asked bluntly, “Well, have you thought about it?”
The refined Archie took a sip of the fragrant tea in front of him, slowly put down the tea, and raised his eyes to gaze at him, “Ruth means that Adri will not give her treatment until she returns to Obren.”
Very assertive attitude.
At the end of the sentence, their purpose has been revealed.
Peter’s face is particularly ugly, slightly jawed, not angry, “Obren in the end what secrets are waiting for Adriana? Intentionally trying to get Adriana back to Obren, in the end what is the intention?”
As Adriana’s man, Peter really feels for Adriana.
Life is really merciless, hard to force a soft girl into this strong look now.
Archie still looked bashful, “She’s our daughter, just know that we won’t harm her.”
“No?”
The man leaned back on the couch, legs folded, his imperial, towering form looking askance at Archie, “Isn’t what you’re doing now hurting Adriana?”
He shook his head and didn’t seem to have much of a disposition to mediate with Archie, and immediately took out his cell phone and dialed a series of numbers.
When the phone number was connected, he said, “Order it down, I want you to get Ruth back at all costs.”
Toast to the wine, he could only make this move.
Hanging up the phone, Peter put his phone away and got up, and walked straight away.
He left so resolutely, not even leaving Archie a look.
“Stand still!”
Suddenly, the man sitting on the couch called out.
Peter took a step and stood there without turning around, waiting for him to say more.
At the moment the two seem to be an internal battle, playing psychological tactics, whoever speaks first loses.
It was clear that Archie was still unsure about Ruth.
“Peter …”
Archie got up and slowly walked towards Peter, standing in front of him and looking directly at him.
A pair of calm eyes gradually rippled, said in a deep voice: “Many things we also have no choice. But Adri is our child, of course we can’t bear to see her suffer, but you must believe that Ruth and I really won’t hurt her.”
The sincere and genuine eyes do not look like they are lying.
Available at …
“It turns out that what you’re saying is bullshit.”
Peter looked cold, cold eyes gazing at Archie, “You have the means to stop what is happening now, yet you have to watch Adriana suffer, I am sorry, I cannot understand your way. Even if you were Adriana’s parents, I wouldn’t be polite to you.”
Whether or not Archie is a true member of The Alston family, he has lived in The Alston family for decades and has had a lot of contact with Peter, so he naturally knows Peter’s nature.
He has always been true to his word and does not lie.
Archie lips pursed, a pair of ink pupils emerged painful struggle, several times hesitation, finally pulled out the same thing handed to Peter, “let Adri take this, she will not be very painful when the attack. But only once.”
A white porcelain vase, very small and delicate.
Peter hesitated, looking at the white delicate porcelain bottle, his eyes flashed, “Archie, I’m warning you for the last time. If you dare to do anything in this bottle of medicine, don’t blame me for being unkind to you and Ruth!”
Even though Peter is as smart as he is, but at this moment, he can’t be sure what Ruth and Archie two people are planning, calculating, and what they are actually going to do to Adriana.
One thing is certain, and that is … Adriana cannot die now.
At least, for the Archie’s, Adriana still has some value in existence, so they won’t let that happen.
Archie didn’t say anything as Peter took the porcelain vase and walked straight away.
Looking at his departing back, Archie said, “The medicine is ready to be taken this afternoon. I hope you won’t give Ruth a hard time, we don’t want to be your enemies.”
Peter clutched the pill bottle, and without looking back, walked out of the villa and got into the car.
In the car, Zac saw Peter come out so quickly and asked, “Brother, how did it go, how did the negotiations go?”
“Go to the hospital.”
Peter, who has a cool nature, didn’t say much to Zac.
Zac raised an eyebrow, shrugged and started the limo away.
Peter did not say because Zac and Ruth two people are too close for him to trust.
“Actually, I think Ruth must not have evil thoughts about Adriana, otherwise he would have had too many opportunities to make deliberate moves on Adriana and not done anything about it.”
The car was driving at a constant speed and Zac, who was driving, suddenly spoke up.
“On the contrary, she also had too many opportunities to protect Adriana and again did nothing.”
He hit the nail on the head.
This is where the conversation dies.
The two men did not speak again.
Not long after the car arrived at the hospital, Peter did a full body checkup at the hospital before going home.
Peter had just gotten home and Adriana had just arrived.
“Honey?”
The man got out of the car, walked over to Adriana’s car, opened the limo door for her, and the little woman stepped out, looked at him with a sweet smile, and naturally took his hand.
“Your hands are so cold, why don’t you put more on?”
Peter held her hand, fingertips gently rubbed the back of her hand, feeling the cold temperature of her hand, it was heartbreaking.
“It’s already so thickly dressed that it’s catching up to the penguins.”
“I’ve never seen a penguin as skinny as you.”
He snickered, leaned over, and directly carried Adriana across his arms, striding toward the villa lobby.
Her body was suddenly suspended in the air, Adriana wrapped her arms around Peter’s neck, “Hey, put me down, I can walk by myself.”
“Don’t move.”
The man snorted lightly, then looked down at the woman in his arms and said softly, “Let me hug you more.”
Make up for the former regrets.
Before to now, Peter knows he owes Adriana too much, and now that his body has healed, he has the responsibility and obligation to protect Adriana and make up for what he once owed.
“Stop it, there are people watching.”
Adriana was a little embarrassed.
After all, they are not the only two in the house, there are Hank, Zac, Jaelynn and them.
It is already so big, every day, it really makes her a little uncomfortable.
“I don’t care.”
Peter has a haughty face.
Carried the little woman upstairs, returned to the room, put her on the bed, kneeled on one knee to help Adriana take off her high heels, let her lean on the head of the bed, help her cover the bedding, “afraid of cold, from now on, go out less.”
“Hmm.”
Adriana responded.
“By the way, what are the results of the medical examination you went to the hospital for?”
“Everything is fine, so don’t worry about me later.”
Peter sat on the edge of the bed, raised his hand, and his long, bone-like fingers lifted the hair on her forehead and pinned it behind her ear.
The image recalled in my mind is what she used to look like with short hair.
