Chapter 88 Scared out of their wits
“So you’re not going to leave here?”
Feeling the little woman in the arms of the water crying, nostrils filled with the faint smell of her body, familiar and unfamiliar.
But this feeling haunts his dreams and haunts him from time to time.
So much so that Adriana such close, actually let his heart so anger all gone, just like a kind of protective desire.
The complex and subtle sentiments are out of Peter’s control, making him exceptionally annoyed as well.
“No, no. I … I can’t walk anymore.”
Originally Adriana did not want to give in front of Peter, but just in really scared her, now just feel weak legs, simply can not walk.
She was born timid and had never been in a haunted house before, this time she was pushing the limits.
The results are predictable.
The words fell, and a light laugh came from beside his ears as if it were not there.
The sound is especially unclear and not so realistic over the clamor of ghostly screams.
And then, Adriana suddenly felt her body hanging in the air, being held in his arms.
A sudden sense of security came over Adriana as she snuggled into his arms, and the fear was not as strong as it had been earlier.
But really freaked out.
So behind her are closed eyes, her head buried in his arms, hands holding her arms in a death grip.
The torturous process passed minute by minute, until a sudden brightness in front of her, the sharp and horrible shouts beside her ears disappeared, she opened her eyes.
Found already walked out.
“Wow, so envious, so in love.”
“That’s right, good men are really other people’s family.”
“That girl is so happy.”
…
Raising his eyes to sweep around the tourists, many people have looked sideways, that look or envy or jealousy or blessing.
Adriana is blushing.
“Put … put me down.”
She bit her lip with her teeth, and she didn’t even have the courage to look directly at Peter because of the situation at the moment.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
It’s so embarrassing.
It’s all because of Luis, the troublemaker, who knows she’s afraid of haunted houses and still keeps pulling her into them.
Otherwise, it would not have been possible to make such a fool of himself in front of Peter.
“Don’t be brave if you’re timid.”
The man’s tone was indifferent, and his handsome face resumed the cold and reserved nature of the day.
Leaning down, he placed her on the floor, turned and led Luis straight away.
The dryness without delay, as if the gentle like water just now that person is not him.
Adriana looked at the back of the two men and couldn’t help but look back at the haunted house, still having palpitations.
Raised his hand over his chest and gently patted it, really to be scared to death.
Had I known it was so scary inside, she would not have gone in.
Looking back for a moment, she also saw the haunted house conductor smiling at her. Although she found her embarrassment amusing, the smile looked a bit stealthy and scary in Adriana’s eyes.
“Wait for me.”
Shouted at the two, and immediately trotted to follow.
“Daddy, you were just very nice to your aunt, yo.”
Luis took Peter’s hand and gave a thumbs up, “Awesome.”
“Why do you like Adriana so much?”
While Adriana was still far away from them, Peter asked Luis tentatively.
Luis thought carefully, and shook his head, “I don’t know. Anyway, I just like my aunt, I think she’s especially kind and gentle.”
Anyway, I like it very much.
Peter’s brow knitted slightly, the reason Luis couldn’t answer was because Luis didn’t know the blood relationship between him and Adriana.
“Hey, you guys wait for me, okay.”
Adriana caught up with the atmosphere straight, feeling that Peter was a particular jerk and not at all manly.
“That’s right daddy, you don’t see auntie are sweating, and don’t know to wait a minute.”
Luis pursed his lips at his daddy and smiled, “Remember to be a gentleman, yo.”
He pointed to the children’s toys not far away, “I’ll go there to play first.” After saying that, he scattered and ran away to make room for the two.
Peter looked back at Adriana and noticed that her forehead was covered with a fine stain of sweat, so he took a handkerchief from his suit pocket and handed it to her, “Wipe it off.”
It is obviously good intentions, but that a cold as ice face is full of indifference and detachment.
It makes people look very uncomfortable.
However, today, Adriana was in a hurry to go out and did not take a tissue, so she had to take the paddle and wipe the sweat stains on her forehead, “Thank you.”
“You look bad, are you okay?”
Before entering the house of horrors, she was flushed, but now her face is pale and bloodless.
For some reason, Peter had no reason to worry.
“Is that so?”
Adriana shook her head and smiled bitterly, “I guess it’s hot.”
As the two walked towards Luis, Adriana asked, “Did you get me leave from the company?”
Up to now there is no visit to the company, and the company has not called.
Peter said he would take leave for her, but so far he hasn’t seen him call the legal department to inform them.
In the end, it’s still not reassuring.
“The secretary has been notified.”
“Oh.”
The conversation ended and the two of them stood outside the rides without saying anything to each other, watching Luis having fun inside, so they both felt in a good mood.
“Luis’ mommy …”
Adriana asked tentatively, “Is it a divorce from you?”
Although Theresa told her earlier that Luis was adopted, Adriana didn’t believe it.
Luis’ features are very similar to Peter’s and she definitely does not believe that Luis is adopted.
Besides, how could the large The Alston family allow him to adopt a child?
“Dead.”
Peter gazed at Luis with a serious expression.
“Die? Hugs … Sorry to bring up your sadness, I didn’t mean to.”
Sure enough, he still cheated on Theresa.
“No hindrance.”
“That … in fact, Luis is still a child now, you can let him spend more time with Theresa, do activities together, play games together, do DIY together, and gradually cultivate the relationship between the two. I believe it won’t take long, they will be able to get along well.”
Theresa is her best friend, even if she is all kinds of suspicious of herself, but there is one thing that has always been a pain in Adriana’s heart.
is something she can’t make up to Theresa for the rest of her life.
It is the matter of Theresa losing her uterus and being unable to have children.
Hearing her a word, Peter knew that she was well-intentioned, but he was a little angry in his heart, “It has nothing to do with you.”
“You …”
Adriana was momentarily speechless and gave him a blank look, “I don’t know what’s good for you.”
“You’re the one who’s meddling.” He said coldly.
“Luis’ business is not my business either, and why did you ask me to accompany Luis to the playground?”
Is this not nosy.
“That’s what you’re supposed to do.”
Peter’s face was chilled and he subconsciously spoke.
But only after the words were spoken did I realize that I had just been a bit inexplicably impulsive.
It’s damned, every time I meet Adriana I get inexplicably angry, fuming, emotions completely out of control.
“Yes, of course I should do that.”
Adriana grunted, “Who made you my boss.”
Seeing that she had misinterpreted his intention, Peter breathed a sigh of relief and was a little more open.
