When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1151 The Rainsworths Must Not Know The Truth.

Adrian was now fully alert and had installed a security camera in the room for emergencies.

Upon hearing this, Niel immediately ordered a search for the video footage. However, after a thorough inspection, there was no sign of any cameras,This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Adrian’s heart sank when he learned that the camera was missing. “How could it not be there? I installed it myself!”

No sooner had he finished speaking than Miranda stormed over, furious. “Adrian, you b’stard! Is this what you said you’d be doing with the money?”

The couple quickly found themselves in a heated argument.

Nicholas arrived and, upon assessing the situation, turned to Niel, “Grandpa, with Adrian’s reputation taking a hit, I think he should take a break for a while.”

This suggested Adrian was about to lose his position.

Having fought his way back to headquarters, Adrian refused to back down. “Are you serious? You expect me to resign over something so trivial?”

Nicholas fixed Adrian with an icy gaze. “Our clients have concerns about your integrity and no longer want to work with you. What other solution do you propose!”

His retort left Adrian speechless.

At that moment, Niel wasn’t in a position to support Adrian and could only agree. “Your actions have disgraced the Rainsworth family. It’s in your best interest to take a break.”

Miranda, however, was unwilling to accept the decision. “Grandpa, are you really going to let him off so easily? After what he’s done, how am I supposed to explain this to my parents?”

Just days ago, she had been proudly boasting about how wonderful her husband was. Now, her own words felt like a painful reminder of her humiliation.

Niel waved it off dismissively. “Miranda, men can be fickle, you need to learn to be more forgiving. But Adrian is at fault here. Apologize to her immediately.”

Adrian wasted no time. “I’m sorry, Miranda, but I’ve been wrongfully accused, I swear. I’m innocent.”

“What about the money? Miranda wasn’t ready to drop the subject.

At the mention of the money, Adrian’s expression darkened. “I did use it for an investment.”

“What project did you invest in? Where’s the location?”

Adrian was momentarily at a loss for words.

His fists clenched as his voice grew colder. I need to find Cecilia to get i never forget

the money back and make sure that b*tch learns a lesson she’ll

Despite his extensive experience, Adrian found himself outmaneuvered by a woman. Now, he had lost not only his position but also his wealth.

Seeing him unable to justify his actions, Miranda, in a fit of rage, disregarded her image and slapped him in front of everyone.

Adrian couldn’t let his family discover that he had been willing to spend five hundred million just for a night with Cecilia Things will get even messier if the Rainsworths find out.

Meanwhile, Cecilia, at her company, had also come across the news report.

By the afternoon, office gossip had spread like wildfire. Everyone had seen the public relations report stating that Adrian had voluntarily resigned. “Finally, those two annoying people are leaving. Unbelievable! Thank God, or we’d be dealing with their

“Exactly! It’s all good now.”

Adrian’s brief return to headquarters had already stirred up a surprising amount of dissatisfaction, an occurrence that was quite uncommon.

“Hoss, you’ve truly upheld justice. I wonder who’s going to be the next sales department manager” Charlotte mused, sitting across from Cecilia with her head bowed in thought.

Cecilia had no idea either. They might just appoint someone out of nowhere I guess

She couldn’t help but wish she could see how Adrian and Miranda were faring now.

After packing up her things, she left work early,

As she approached the house, she faintly overheard the housekeepers whispering. “Miranda was ruthless. She hit her husband as if she wanted to kill him.”

“Well, Adrian’s just an illegitimate child, born to some outsider woman. If he had been the eldest son of the master’s wife, Miranda wouldn’t have dared lay a finger on him,” another added.
