Chapter 359 She doesn’t like me, can’t force it
“Shhh! Don’t stammer!”
“Jessica has just fallen asleep, look at her little white face, she is still quite sick, you speak in a lower voice!”NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Romeo’s movements are quick and he quickly finished all the formalities, he pushed the door and just to say something, he was stopped by a stern look from Beatrice.
“Is Jessica asleep?”
Romeo received a warning from his wife’s eyes, instantly lowered his voice to a minimum, as if a member of the fierce general seconds into a quiet scholar’s sense of sight.
“Well, I just went to bed, but the quality of sleep was not very good, and I was preoccupied.”
Beatrice spoke softly, helped Jessica to cover the thin blanket and shook her head.
Jessica’s face is still miserable white, seems to sleep not very sound, or dream, eyelashes tremble slightly, the whole person is charming and pitiful.
“Honey, this man’s jacket, how I see it, looks like Lorenzo’s clothes, in line with the way he always dresses.”
Romeo casually picked up the men’s jacket that was placed aside, frowned slightly, and muttered.
After all, Jessica’s coat was torn at the time, Lorenzo saved her, and the coat was still on Jessica when she was in the hospital, which is why Romeo said so.
“Lorenzo saved Jessica’s life, and I am truly grateful that he did so in time to save Jessica.”
“But! He’s really quite a scumbag too!”
“Even if the two people really have any emotional entanglement, that should also be dust to dust, earth to earth.”
“He’s getting engaged to that bitch from the Bailey family tomorrow, so why mess with our Jessica, just because he’s the landlord’s stupid son?”
“He himself said don’t tell Jessica the truth, we don’t have to say it, he has quite a few coats to wear, you hurry up and throw the coat in the trash, don’t be here to diaphragm people!”
“If you are going to be engaged to another woman, don’t come to tease Jessica, and if you can’t let go of Jessica, let that green tea king hurry up and get out of the way.”
“Does he mean that he still wants E Huang and Maiden Ying? It really makes me feel bad!”
Beatrice’s good feeling towards Lorenzo, plummeted n levels.
“Throw it in the trash? That … isn’t quite right, is it?”
“Although he is in the relationship problem, indeed not very desirable, no matter how to say, but also saved Jessica, this if the real accident, Jessica will not live.”
“Hey, the creation of the world is not.”
Although Romeo doesn’t think Lorenzo is short of a dress to wear either, it’s not a good idea to do so, is it?
“Are you suddenly going through menopause? How come you’re so mouthy! I told you to throw it away quickly, don’t you understand?”
“The Fletcher family is very wealthy, and they still feel sorry for this piece of clothing? I can’t help but feel angry when I look at it!”
Beatrice’s fiery temper was about to come up again, and she took a deep breath for half a day before she barely managed to reign in some of the emotions that were about to erupt.
“But … I always think Jessica to Lorenzo extraordinarily different, is a woman like a man kind of different, change others you see, guaranteed not a situation anymore.”
She hesitated, most women’s intuition is very accurate, she always felt that although Jessica’s mouth does not say anything, she and Lorenzo, must be very complex emotional entanglement.
“Mrs. Armstrong is brilliant! I also think Lorenzo is quite arrogant, but in fact, at heart, he likes our Jessica …”
“Look at Lorenzo’s cold to unfeeling look, how is not like the universal bodhisattva, irrelevant people, he would risk his life to care about the affairs of other families?”
“I wasn’t feeling well before, either, so why didn’t I see him come and take care of me?”
Romeo finished, carefully observing his wife’s expression, see her also a little hesitant, uncertain to continue to ask.
“Or … we first send the clothes to be cleaned, then put it away, see the situation behind, and then decide how to deal with the clothes?”
“Then it’s settled.”
Beatrice nodded and agreed with her husband, and the two hit it off.
…
the Fletcher residence.
“It’s Beatrice and Lorenzo back, hurry up and sit over here.”
“It’s true that you are going to be a bride, people are getting more and more watery and beautiful, how come you haven’t seen it for a long time, hurry up and come over, let me take a good look at you.”
When Connie saw the two of them coming home, she greeted them with a quick smile, took Beatrice’s hand, smiled and spoke, and then dropped her eyes on Lorenzo.
“Lorenzo, you go upstairs to the study, your father wants to see you for something, I’ll stay here with Beatrice, don’t worry.”
Lorenzo nods and steps away.
He came to the door of the study, lightly buttoned the door of the study, and stepped into the study.
He stood in front of the large floor-to-ceiling window with one hand in his pocket, his eyes looking out of the window, the room half-lit, half-dark, the light and shadow falling on his body, people look a kind of extreme loneliness.
“How are your arms and legs?”
Adrian spoke lightly, still standing motionless, looking into the distance.
“It’s okay.”
Lorenzo’s excessively handsome face, little change in expression, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.
“Such a serious injury, almost ruined, I want to ask you, what situation is called something? To lose your life before you give up?”
Adrian finally turned around and raised his eyes to look at his son, his thin, distracted lips slightly curled.
“If it’s okay, I’ll leave first.”
Lorenzo frowned slightly, as far as he could remember, his father never said such useless things to him.
He and Adrian never had anything to talk about and turned to leave.
“Do you like Jessica so much that you can bury your own life?”
Adrian’s mellow voice, with a hint of indefinable emotion, reached Lorenzo’s ears.
“What do you want?”
Lorenzo’s entire body froze in place, his heart thumped, turned around, slightly narrowed his eyes to look at Adrian, his eyes deep understanding.
“What’s the point of being so wary? I just said it casually.”
Adrian .
“I do like Jessica extraordinarily, the kind of like that would give my life for her, and I’m happy to save her life, even if I die.”
“I know you as a person, and I know your style of acting even better, I advise you not to act rashly.”
“If you do anything bad to her, how mad I can go, I can’t control it myself.”
Lorenzo is not a fool, although the father and son rarely communicate, but he knows his father very well, he is not a casual talk about the family man, he said every word, every sentence, have to say the meaning of the exit.
Adrian was very regretful at this time, when he knew that Lorenzo in order to Jessica, life are not, he was chagrined, is that he should not indulge his son’s freedom.
Lorenzo’s obsession with Jessica is simply overwhelming and unimaginable to him, even if he has forgotten his past with Jessica.
“In that case, why bother to make an engagement party? It’s still all in time if you haven’t gone this far.”
Adrian lit a cigarette and exhaled the smoke slowly and carelessly.
“She didn’t like me enough to force it.”
Lorenzo was silent for a while, slowly dropping his eyes, his heart seemed to be undergoing an extreme struggle, even his voice was obvious self-deprecation.
Yeah, Jessica is probably disgusted with him.
She not only disgusted him, but teased his heart.
Adrian smiled, his eyes had a moment of surprise, and finally did not say anything.
“I don’t want to spoil my feelings, and if I don’t like me, why should I make a fool of myself?”
“I don’t want her to know that I saved her life, and I don’t need her pity and sympathy.”
“Like her, is a matter for me alone, even for her to lose this life, I willingly, and do not ask for the slightest return.”
“But I can’t tolerate her recklessness, relying on the fact that I just like her and wantonly belittling my self-esteem.”
“For the last time with you, don’t bother her life or do anything to hurt her.”
“I have agreed to the marriage arranged by the family, I will stay away from her, but whether this marriage can be maintained depends on Jessica’s ability to live safely and securely, if she has any half-hearted failure, Beatrice will suffer a doubling of the repercussions.”
Lorenzo spoke coldly, the lines of his face tense, clenched hands, veins emerged.
“Yes, but you have to undergo rehabilitation, and if you want her to be safe and well, you yourself have to be healthy, so what her fate ends up being depends entirely on whether you give up on yourself or not.”
“You know my temper, don’t try to fearlessly challenge the extent of my bottom line.”
Adrian was silent for a long time, his cigarette had burned out, before he slowly spoke and nodded his head.
Lobby.
“Beatrice, tomorrow is your engagement party with Lorenzo, is your father back home and will the old Mrs. Bailey be at the engagement party?”
Connie accompanies Beatrice downstairs to gossip about the engagement party together. Keeping her company is secondary to getting important information, which is her intention to accompany the conversation.
“Aunt Connie, my father has been away on business for quite some time, and I don’t know if he will be back in time tomorrow for Grandma to be able to attend the engagement party.”
Beatrice spoke up.
Connie nodded at the words, Mylo is Beatrice’s father, the Bailey family with the Fretston one of the four gentry, he is very low-key, often abroad, few people see him.
Anyone who has lived in Fretston for any length of time will know that Mylo and Adrian grew up together and are close friends.
The Bailey family and the Fletcher family’s marriage, but also the two people single-handedly contributed to their own most trusted best friend became in-laws relationship, Mylo naturally did not have any uneasy, so it is likely not to rush back.
Although the old Mrs. Bailey does not seem to ask any questions, the discerning eye can see that even the old Mrs. Bailey retired for many years, but still clear-minded very, before thought by chance, to go to the Buddha’s quiet place to eat fasting and read Buddhism for a good period.
“Beatrice, why did your Grandma suddenly go to a Buddhist retreat for so long for no reason?”
Connie was puzzled.
“This matter, I’m not too sure, it seems to be a very good relationship around the grandmother of the deceased, there is a major change, so the grandmother went to eat fasting and praying for a good period of time, has not returned.”
Beatrice isn’t too sure.
An old friend who is very close?
Connie couldn’t imagine for a moment who was the old Mrs. Bailey’s old friend and could make the old Mrs. Bailey do so.
If you have to be involved in the life of a deceased person, only the old Mrs. Bailey, the Bailey family and the Fletcher family is considered a family friend, ancestral relationship, are very close.
Other than that, she couldn’t think of anyone else.
But …
The old Mrs. Fletcher is not sick or ill, she has taken Housekeeper Ela to live in Lorenzo’s private villa.
“By the way auntie, I haven’t seen the second young master for a long time, is he very busy?”
Beatrice spoke up.
At the mention of Wilfred, Connie’s anger is not in the same place.
Wilfred suddenly left the country, did not leave a message just a word, so long, no news at all, when the mother did not know where her son is, are busy with what.
She only knows one thing, when Wilfred and Lorenzo two people relationship to a certain extent, like a deadly enemy, not only that, the son and Adrian’s relationship, also became very worrying.
Connie understands very well, Adrian will certainly give the huge the Fletcher Group as much as Lorenzo, then his own son, will not be nothing?
Wilfred, if he had taken the trouble to please Adrian, so that Adrian’s father’s love was given to him, it would not have been in vain to that bitch’s son!
Reluctantly!
The most important thing is that Wilfred grew up with a cool personality and never looked at things outside the body as important, he always said he could give himself a piece of the country, enough on the line.
What a fool he is, he a doctor can have his father’s life’s work to earn more?
She is a shrewd woman, how did she give birth to a fool?
Now that the Bailey family and the Fletcher family are united in marriage, there is nothing more for Wilfred to do.
Thinking about it, Connie’s whole person is not good, several times angry to sudden heart attack.
Adrian, an extremely intelligent man, knew she would not be able to hold it in and had just given her a serious warning in private the other day.
“Auntie, then again, over the years, Wilfred is also very accomplished, the reputation of the world, the medical skills are even better, there are many famous ladies and daughters are eager to be favored by the second young master.”
“But because the second young master’s mind is also a little too simple, it is likely to be some impure motives, deep-hearted scum to cheat the feelings.”
“Not long ago, I was in front of the college, saw the second young master to go specifically to Jessica, this woman’s mind is too deep, the relationship is too messy, this is not again by many strange men to take captive, the city’s people are crazy rumors that she has been raped by those men … ”
Speaking of which, Beatrice deliberately sighed heavily and took a moment to slow down before continuing to speak.
“said Jessica must have lost her innocence, the Fletcher family is the Fretston top luxury family, family style must be the strictest, three views is also the most important, if really will be such a private life extremely chaotic woman married home, will not be the whole country to see the joke?”
“How can such a shame be made, when the Fletcher family’s ancestral wisdom cannot be ruined because of a loose woman?”
“So even if the second young master reproaches you for your ruthlessness because of this matter, you have to think for the sake of the second young master, you can’t let that kind of woman ruin the second young master’s life and destroy the foundation that the Fletcher family has worked so hard to build.”
Beatrice seemed to have a good-natured look at Connie, who was sitting next to her.
