Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 566

At Zed's words, Adolf frowned and looked at him without saying a word.

The atmosphere suddenly became strange and silent. There was a hint of tension as well.

Zed gave Albert a smile on the corners of his mouth.

Back at Zed, Albert also had a smile with deep meaning and looked at them with some sympathy, as if he still had enough tricks under his sleeve.

Adolf finally broke the silence. "You asked me why I was here, right?" He had a heavy voice and a complicated expression. He cleared his throat before speaking again, "Tomorrow is the agreed time to shoot advertisements for your company, so I have to come and see for myself how Avery is recovering. I know I was a little tough on her, that's why I really need to check, so I can sleep in peace.

I had to, because this is my responsibility and my daily activity as her manager."

Zed was stunned after hearing Adolf.

He suddenly understood why Albert had just looked at him like that.

'I see.

Albert knows Adolf's style of working so well that he set up a trap for us to get in on our own, ' Zed thought, feeling more and more impressed at Albert.

Zed turned to Avery before returning his attention to Adolf and asked, "Since that's the case, does Avery know about your nightly habit?"

Avery shook her head, and her eyes turned a little red, making everyone glance at her.

Obviously, she didn't fully know what Adolf had done for her in private.

With an open and straightforward expression, Adolf answered Zed, "No, she doesn't know. Her sleep quality is not very good, so I always wait until she falls asleep before I come to see her."

However, deep in his eyes, there was still a slight light that flashed across quickly and then dimmed. His eyes returned to their original cold state at once.

Zed had been looking at Adolf, so he had not overlooked the subtle change in his eyes.

He frowned and continued to eye Adolf intently.

Adolf felt Zed's penetrating gaze and frowned back at him uncomfortably.

Unaffected by Adolf's cold expression, Zed looked at him and asked with a smile, "Since you said you were here to see if Avery slept well, what about Albert and the two bodyguards? Are they also worried about her, so they came and had a look?"

Adolf frowned deeper at Zed. "You did ask a good question, Zed." He turned to the three people standing near him, and asked them with doubt, "Albert, haven't you gone back to rest? And you two, didn't I ask you to keep watch at the door of her room?"

One of the bodyguards moved forward and rushed to explain, "Boss, as soon as we saw the two men sneaking into Miss Avery's ward, we were about to stop them and inform you, but then Albert suddenly appeared. He told us just to stop them in front of the hospital gate, since he said you would be there soon."

When Adolf heard the words, his eyes immediately fell on Albert. "Albert, why are you here in the first place?"

"Well, I was sad and upset to see your relationship with Avery become so rigid during the day, so I tossed and turned for a long time and finally decided to come and talk to Avery, but I didn't expect..."

He paused intentionally, looking at Zed and the other two.

With her eyes opened wide and mouth gaped, Avery stared at Albert in shock.

It was as if she had never known the person in front of her. This wasn't the Albert she knew, and apparently, this was his true nature.

'Jesus! How can Albert lie so easily without even thinking it over?

Will he be sad?

Or will he be upset?

Oh, of course, that must be a joke. As a matter of fact, he is eager for Adolf to scold me harder in order to get me away from Adolf as soon as possible, ' Avery thought mockingly, rolling her angry eyes at Albert.

However, Adolf obviously believed Albert's excuse. He looked at Albert with a faint smile and felt relieved. "Fortunately, you're here tonight, Albert. Otherwise, I don't know how serious things will become tomorrow."

Before Albert could reply back with another lie, Avery hurriedly cut him off. "Adolf, how could you trust Albert? He is clearly lying to you!"

Adolf's eyes stared sharply at Avery at once. He then asked coldly, "What did you say?" An unhappy and disappointed expression appeared on his face.
