Semua Bab Fell for Mr. Wrong, Drove Him Mad With Goodbye: Bab 21 - Bab 30

It was Adrian!Sienna's heart sank. When did he get here? The way he'd opened the door carried a trace of anger. Had he heard everything she'd said?Adrian walked in, closing the restroom door behind him. He stalked toward Sienna, closing the distance.She instinctively backed away until her body hit the sink. There was nowhere else to go. She couldn't help feeling nervous. If he started to suspect her, would he change his plan? Would he expose those videos of her soon?She looked completely lost and helpless.Adrian lifted his hand and gripped her jaw, his voice cold and as sharp as a blade. "I didn't know you had so little trust in me, Anna."A crease formed between his brows, his face set in a hard, expressionless mask."Rian…" Sienna called his name softly, gathering herself. "It's not what you think. Let me explain."He released her, bringing his handsome, frosty face even closer. He looked at her imperiously. "Fine. Explain.""These past two days, Winnie mentioned some o

After steadying herself, Sienna quickly pushed Adrian away and got out of his arms. Then, she gave everyone a slight bow to be polite before hurrying off.Seeing her leave, Winona sighed in relief. Only then did she realize she'd been a bit out of line. She immediately raised her glass to apologize. "My little sister is simple-minded. As for…"She gave Adrian a complicated look. "As for what kind of person Mr. Humphrey is, there's plenty of talk out there. I can't be at ease when my sister is involved. Still, I've been rude, so please accept this drink as my apology."Ewan and Simon followed her lead, raising their wine glasses. What Winona said was the truth—it was understandable that she was worried about her sister.However, Adrian's voice came low and cold. "Is this how you apologize, Ms. Colton? By belittling and slandering others?""Belittling? Slandering?" Winona couldn't help a sneer. "Adrian, don't you know the sort of reputation you have out there? My sister is as pure a

Sienna got out of the cab. She immediately spotted Adrian's Maybach in the parking lot. His car was low-key, but his license plate was quite eye-catching. One look at the plate and one would know it was him.Had Winona come here to meet Adrian?Sienna found a seat in the lobby. The flashing lights and blaring music made her uncomfortable, but she forced herself to bear it.Meanwhile, Winona walked into a private room. Only Adrian and Simon were inside. It looked like Sienna was right—they were close friends.Winona went straight over and sat down beside Adrian.He had his legs crossed, lounging back on the couch as he smoked. Layers of smoke curled around him, lending a few extra shades of mystery to his striking looks.He uncrossed his legs, sat up, and handed Winona a glass of wine. She took it, swept him a glance, then looked at Simon. She didn't bring up business—she didn't want to tip off what Sienna had told her.Anyway, Adrian had been with Simon after the meal had ended

Laura Smith, the housekeeper, hurried in.Adrian said, "Get a few maids to come move the couch."Sienna clenched her fists, her heart leaping to her throat. If they moved the couch, Adrian would find out she was pregnant!"Yes, sir. Right away." Laura walked off.Sienna asked, "You want to move the couch to look for the cufflink?""Yeah.""It's just a cufflink. You don't have to make a big deal out of it." She didn't want him to move the couch."How can I not? You gave them to me as a birthday gift, Anna. Anyway, it's just fallen under the couch. We can move it a bit and grab it," Adrian said.Sienna's heart raced. She didn't know what to do.Soon, the maids came in. Adrian pointed at the couch and said, "My cufflink rolled under the couch. Move this over here."The maids started moving. Sienna's heartbeat picked up, thudding nonstop in her chest. She had to think of something else.Adrian wouldn't want the babies, anyway. Once he found out, she could take the opportunity to

It was Adrian.It was bizarre how often Sienna ran into him lately. He seemed to show up everywhere she went.He took her by the shoulders, his voice tight with concern. "Are you ill?""My heart's been acting up a little, so I came for a cardiology checkup. It's nothing serious. What about you? Why are you at the hospital?" Sienna asked.He started, "I—""Rian." He was cut off.Sienna looked up and saw Fiona emerging from the obstetrics department, a test slip in hand. She hooked her arm through Adrian's with a bright smile. "The doctor who did the ultrasound said the baby's healthy. There's a heartbeat now."Sienna's knees went weak. She nearly fell, but Adrian's steady hand closed around her arm, holding her up.Fiona pretended not to recognize Sienna and asked, puzzled, "Did you run into a friend?""Yeah," Adrian said shortly.A mocking curve flitted past Sienna's lips. In front of his wife, she was just someone he knew. Fiona's baby had just developed a heartbeat. That me
