"No need to apologize, but I don't like your making a fuss here."
"Say who? We came to apologize with sincerity, but he pulled a long face to us! What's wrong with him?"
This woman was ridiculous, as Adrian was famous for his poker face in City A.
There were few people who could see his smiley face.
"No sincere apology, thanks. See you."
Aleigha disliked whoever was cold to Adrian.
"We'll leave instantly, now, this moment. Jaidyn, let's go."
"Are you done? The child is not everything for me."
Jaidyn, in a dilemma, threw a fit in front of Adrian and Aleigha.
"You yelled at me? How can you? For that woman?" Jodie glared at Jaidyn, pointed at Aleigha, and shouted.
Jaidyn turned cold, glanced at Aleigha, and then led Jodie away by the hand.
With a glass of water in his hand, Adrian didn't say a word but smiled at Aleigha faintly.
"Who on earth she thinks herself to be? Why does Jaidyn mess up with this woman?"
Adrian shook his head. Her fair and perfect chest was exposed through the open collar.
Aleigha kept peeking at it.
"Be patient. It is all yours after the baby is born, and you get well."
"Who peeks? Da*n"
Out of embarrassment, Aleigha went upstairs.
Mill arrived at the company at 8 o'clock sharp, and Ruby followed behind.
She seemed more haggard than a few days ago.
When Aleigha arrived, Ruby was eating a steamed bun. She shivered at the sound of the footsteps.
"Mill, any news from the detention house?"
Aleigha went straight to the topic upon her getting into the office, as if Ruby didn't exist.
"There is nothing wrong with the policemen in the detention house. Perla had a visitor, but that person was not Samantha."
"Well, she was bold enough to send a representative. Got you. Thanks for your information!"
Mill shook his head and looked back at Ruby.
"Take her back. Let her see Leona the day before the launch event."
With the bun in her hand, Ruby looked at Aleigha complexly. She didn't know Aleigha's plan yet.
"Miss Gardner, please let me see my family, could you?"
With tears, Ruby pleaded.
"No!"
"Just a moment, please!"
"You will be free after your job is done. Don't beg me now."
Aleigha remained cold to Ruby and looked at her emotionlessly.
"I see. Thank you, Miss Gardner."
Jionni, Adrian assistant, came in after Mill and Ruby left.
"Miss Gardner, the representative of the German project arrived. He's chatting with Mr. Xiao. I am here to invite you over."
"Coming."
This German representative was an old partner with Adrian. Their last cooperation ended because Adrian thought the techniques of the other party were not good.
With new techniques, this German company sought a new collaboration with Adrian.
