Chapter 276 I searched for you for a day and a night
At least the situation now is naturally the more chaotic the better for Brenden.
Adriana drove towards the direction of the city center, but the road foot pain is too serious, but also
afraid that he drove to stop on the road will not be safe, in case Peter suspected midway, and turn
back, would not be a bad situation?
So she braced herself for a foot injury, used her familiarity with Los Angeles to cross from south to
north, and then stopped at the curb for Anne to come and pick her up.
Back at Anne's house, Adriana took off her shoes and looked at her feet, which were already full of
blood staining the gauze, even the soles of her shoes were stained with crimson blood.
Anne was worried and asked, "Where have you been, do you know Peter is worried about you? And
that Harlee has been looking for you too."
"Get my medicine cabinet for me."
Adriana doesn't want to mention it, she doesn't trust anyone now except Anne and Vivian and Jenkins.
Because, no one is good enough for her to trust.
Anne wrinkled her brow and opened her lips slightly, wanting to say something, but the words came to
her lips and swallowed them back, sighed, and went to bring Adriana the medicine box.
She tended to the wound herself, cleaning the blood stains, applying medicine and dressing it before
lying down on the sofa, closing her eyes and murmuring, "I'm exhausted, I want to take a nap."
"Go to your room and rest, it's all packed up, the room has been reserved for you." Anne felt sorry for
her.
"Nope, didn't shower, didn't want to go to bed to rest."
Adriana is lying on the couch, resting with a cuddle pillow.
Sleeping through the night, Adriana kept her phone off, then took a shower and laid down to rest.
At this time Anne, who had finished washing up, came in, sat beside her and asked, "I know all about
Waverly's side, and now the company is in jeopardy, won't you go back?"
She shook her head, looked sideways out the window and sighed, "The most important thing you need
for the creation of a company is integrity and stability, the basis for customers to choose you. Now the
company has had one major accident after another, the foundation has not yet been firmly rotted, what
room for maneuver do you think there is? Large companies will certainly cancel cooperation, and
blacklisted never to cooperate again, the rest will only be some small cases, divorce proceedings,
criminal proceedings and other lawsuits, the income is meager."
The words a meal, followed by: "so many years busy law firm really tired, this time let my brother and
Vivian put in to lose a lot of money, are my responsibility, I am bound to make up. The firm, I do not
want to do anymore."
After this incident, Adriana wanted to change her career.
The law firm has been particularly notorious, apparently no longer works, it is better to just give up.
"That's the firm you've worked so hard for all these years, are you really willing to give it up?" Others do
not know the importance of the company to Adriana, but she, Anne, understands very well the
importance of the law firm to Adriana.
It was her hard-earned career that was so ruined, and she was not the only one who was heartbroken,
but also Anne.
Then, Adriana took out a check for five million from her bag, "Waverly has always had your shares, and
after the collapse of Hale Cobb Law Firm, I had wanted to give you the money, but thought it would be
better to give it to you in person. Now that YY Law Firm is in trouble again, it was Vivian and Jenkins
we paid out of pocket, the two of them are innocent, I plan to give the company to the two of them to
take care of after the company's foreign debt is replaced. Although not as much as the current one-fifth
of the income, but at least much better than the two of them working for others on their own."
"You die to the side, five million, you send the caller? Although it is said that the company over there
closed down, but there is still a company over here in Los Angeles, what are you afraid of, it's okay."
She laughed and looked disgusted.
But Adriana knew in her heart that Anne was worried that Waverly would lose too much money and
that she would have to pay more, so she couldn't bear to ask for the money.
Adriana didn't say anything, and rested after a few small talk with her.
The next day, Anne got up early in the morning and went to Adriana's room to take a look, the room NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
had been cleaned up, the bedding was also neatly folded, and there was a piece of paper on the
desktop, and when she looked closer, she realized that this was the check for five million that Adriana
had given her yesterday.
She, after all, stayed.
Anne shook her head helplessly, feeling deeply that Adriana was kind and friendly.
Adriana bought the nearest plane ticket, took a taxi to the airport, and the person had just picked up the
ticket when Peter appeared in front of her.
"Adriana, stop right there!"
The moment she saw him, her eyes indifferent can not be indifferent, coldly withdrew her gaze and
turned towards the ticket gate.
The man went after her, blocking his way in front of her, "What the hell do you want?"
He looked down at the woman in front of him, his exhausted face showing his anger, "Where did you
go yesterday, do you know that I looked for you for a whole day and night?"
Adriana clutching the ticket in her hand, slowly raised her eyes, the pair of obscure eyes were replaced
by clear crystal-like eyes, the corners of her lips pulled out a smile, not reaching the bottom of her eyes,
looking somewhat slightly cool and far-fetched.
"Tough job, my phone ran out of battery and I never charged it and forgot."
She said it in a breezy way, as if she didn't understand Peter's words.
The man put his hands on her shoulders, his sharp gaze met her good-looking shearwater eyes and
said again, "Where the hell were you yesterday?"
"A friend's house."
"Which friend?"
He was aggressive.
Adriana glanced at his hand on her shoulder out of the corner of her eye, her mind filled with the scene
she saw today in St. Peter's Manor.
A deeply hidden heart gradually has traces of broken, even can clearly hear the sound of a broken
heart, the taste of pain swept through the whole body, directly into the cold pool of piercing cold,
freezing her almost suffocated in general.
"What's the matter, you still won't allow me to have a friend? Are you jealous?"
She tilted her head, her cheeks swirled with a smile that clearly looked bright and lovely, but the pair of
too-clear eyes always let people detect a trace of coldness and detachment.
The inexplicable feeling annoyed Peter's mood.
Taking her hand, "Come on, I'll take you home."
"No, I bought a plane ticket."
"Take my plane."
"Better forget it, anyway, already to the airport, running around is very troublesome, besides the money
spent can not be wasted."
Adriana smiled genuinely, "We can see who arrives at Waverly first."
The crisp, silver bell-like voice is so beautiful, but Peter can actually hear her voice from her sad and
silent and sad emotions.
Then, without waiting for Peter to speak once more, Adriana had already walked into the ticket gate
and went inside.
Peter was stunned in place, looking at the glimpse of the back, not looking back in, hanging at the side
of the hands clenched together, issued a click-click-click sound of bone joints
