Chapter 1300
Adrian didn't say anything, but the disgust in his eyes was so obvious. He hated hypocrites.
More importantly, the smell of her perfume irked him and reminded him of that annoying Kendal.
"You can go talk to Aleigha. I'm busy." Adrian gave the eviction notice without mercy.
Leona had no choice but to leave.
As soon as she got out of his office, she walked to his secretary.
"Miss, how long have you been working for Adrian?"
The secretary said with a polite smile, "Just a few months."
"Your salary is not high, right?" Leona asked shrewdly.
"Mr. Xiao pays me well. What can I do for you, Miss?"
"This is my number. If you want to make more money, call me."
The secretary took the phone number and went into Adrian's office after she left.
"Mr. Xiao, this is the phone number that lady left me. She said I could call her if I needed money." "Well, keep in touch with her, and you know what to do." "Yes, Mr. Xiao."
"Tell the security this woman is not allowed to come in again."
"Yes."
That night, the secretary called Leona, and they agreed to meet at a bar.
Hearing this, Aleigha went to the bar in advance and sat in the private room next to them.
Leona dressed very sexy and the secretary almost didn't recognize her.From NôvelDrama.Org.
"You are Ruby Foster, right?"
Leona had looked into Ruby before. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come alone.
"Yes. Miss Woods, I was wondering if there was any way you could make me more money.
"You know, I have a brother who is studying abroad, and I need to support my parents." "Easy. You just have to tell me what Adrian does every day. I want a detailed schedule. "I'll give you 100,000 bucks a month for that."
Ruby smiled. "Mr. Xiao's schedule is only worth 100,000 bucks? You know, I can make more money selling it to his admirers."
Leona's heart sank. She knew that Adrian's secretary would be difficult.
"Two hundred thousand. What do you think?"
"Deal, but I want you to pay me in advance for this month.
"Just take it as a deposit. I'll do my best to help you."
"What a greedy girl! Fine."
Leona was afraid of being seen, so she left directly after giving Ruby the money.
As soon as she left, Ruby went to the next room.
"Miss Gardner, she gave me this. Should I tell her about Mr. Xiao's schedule?"
"Well, of course. Just take the money. I know you need it, or I wouldn't let you meet her here.
"You can tell her the truth about Adrina's last three days. He is gonna take care of it."
As Aleigha expected, Leona wanted Adrian.
Aleigha left the bar and got into Adrian's car.
"Ruby has already reached an agreement with Leona. You'll take it from here."
Adrian snorted coldly and put his arm on her shudder. "Okay. How are you gonna thank me in bed?"
"Hey! You're doing it again! Don't you ever feel tired? By the way, I seem to have delayed my period this month."
"Delayed?" Adrian asked in puzzlement.
"Yeah, I'd never had a late period before. Maybe it's because I've been too tired recently."
"Maybe you're..."
"What?"
Aleigha understood in an instant. She
to see him narrowing his eyes et
Sd at Adrian in shock,
staring straight at her flat abdomen.
"Maybe you're pregnant."
Aleigha's pretty face was full of disbelief.
"What's with that expression? Are you telling me you don't want to have my child?"
"I do, but I hear it hurts to give birth. Why can't you have a child?"
When they passed by a pharmacy, Adrian went to buy a pregnancy test stick.
When they got home, he couldn't wait for her to take a test.
Aleigha was excitedly waiting for the ne bathroom. After a
result in
the stick showed two bright red, bars. Sh*t!
She went in for a long time and didn't come out.
Adrian impatiently went into the bathroom.
She was holding a pregnancy test stick and sitting on the toilet with a sad face.
"Aleigha, aren't you pregnant?"
"Yes. Now you're happy. Take it and go away."
Adrian took the stick over. Then, the corners of his mouth gradually curled into a smile.
"Aleigha, should I tell my parents the good news?"
"Adrian, do you know how old I am? I haven't finished my studies yet, and we haven't had a wedding."
"You are just too shocked. In fact, the baby won't stop you from doing anything.
"Aleigha, I like children very much. I think we're gonna raise great kids just like my parents did."
"Did you do it without a condom on purpose? You knew I wouldn't give up the baby."
Adrian hugged her and chuckled in her ear. "Yes. I did it so you wouldn't leave me.
"You have my baby, you'll never see another man again."
"So it's a trap!" Aleigha wanted to hit him, but he grabbed her hand.
"Aleigha, it's a trap of love."
Because of the baby, Aleigha didn't work so hard anymore. She thought about the baby before she did anything.
On the weekend, she had a rare date
a
with Adrian. They went to watch movie. At 11 o'clock in the evening,
Tanner called her when she was about to sleep.
"Aleigha, something happened to Emilee. She's in the hospital."
Aleigha was a little panicked. She had lost too much. She didn't want to lose Emilee.
That poor girl had a hard time getting to where she was today. Why was the universe so unfair?
"Aleigha, I'll take you there."
Adrian got up to get dressed. Aleigha's mind was in a mess. In the end, it was Adrian who changed her clothes.
When they arrived at the hospital, they saw Tanner and Isaias. Isaias looked pretty anxious.
"Aleigha, I'm sorry. I didn't know Emilee would get hurt. It's all my fault."
"Didn't you just take her to your home? What happened?"
Aleigha was in a state of panic, and she even spoke with a hint of tremor.
It happened when I was in my father's room. It'd only been a couple of minutes..."
Isaias looked very sad and helpless.
"Stop blaming yourself. Emilee will be fine, don't worry."
Tanner was smoking, and he seemed stable.
