"Then if we meet again, you must give me your contact information." Aadam did not stop her. He could see that Adelaide was a woman who had her principles. If he wanted a woman like this, he should be patient.
He was not in a hurry. Anyway, he would stay in J City for a long time. J City was big, but with his ability, it was easy for him to find Adelaide.
"Ok." Before going out, Adelaide answered. Though her voice was not loud, it still fell to Aadam's ear.
He twitched the corners of his mouth into a meaningful smile.
The night wind of late spring was still cold. In the bathroom, Adelaide got splashed on with some water.
And this wind made Adelaide feel colder.
She held her hand around her chest, but she could not help shivering.
It was about ten o'clock at night, and there was much less traffic in the streets, much less pedestrians. Adelaide walked down the empty street, looking lonely from a distance.
J City was big, for a time, Adelaide could not think of any place she could go. After thinking about it, she still decided to go home. She was always going to face it.
What was the point of running away?
She waited a moment by the side of the street, and when a cab passed by, she waved.
She took a taxi to the door and paid before she got off the car. Although she made up her mind to do so, she could not help but slow down her pace when she approached the villa and thought that the man inside might be sitting on the sofa waiting for her silently.
She arrived at the door, took out the key and stood at the door, but for a long time she did not put the key into the lock.
Just as she was hesitated, the door suddenly opened. Antonio dressed in a suit was holding his car keys. It looked like he was about to leave the house.
It made Adelaide be at a loss for a while. Antonio froze when he saw Adelaide at the door.
Because he was worried that Adelaide would have an accident, Antonio could not sit in the house, so he wanted to drive out to look for her. Although he knew that the probability of finding Adelaide was very small, he felt uneasy sitting at home.
But what he never expected was that Adelaide was standing in the doorway. He was to ask her why she stood at the door of the house.
However, when he spoke out, he said, ??Why are you so late?" There was no worry in his voice, but reproach.
Adelaide was cold, but now she got colder because of Antonio??s words.
Before she saw Antonio, she was afraid that he would get angry. But now that she did see him, Adelaide was not afraid of anything. It was so strange.
"None of your business." Adelaide's face was expressionless, and she was to walk in the house. Antonio was depressed. He just wanted to show his concern to Adelaide, but he said words like that.
However, Adelaide's answer made him feel angry.
??You're my wife, so of course it is my business!??
Antonio wanted to say this sentence out, but after all, it still became a long sigh. Adelaide had already entered the house, so she did not hear the sigh.
