Novel & Cerita Adrian Mellon

Reina Vale didn't bite her nails. Magazines were spread across the glass table. Business magazines with sleek covers. Then I saw it. Forbes. Adrian's face stared back at me. He wore a dark suit and looked powerful. Untouchable. The headline read: *Billionaire CEO Adrian Thorne: Building an Empire After a Tragic Loss.* After a tragic loss?

“No, I’m not stupid.” “That’s what I thought. Let me remind you who exactly you’re married to, in case you’ve forgotten.” He slams both palms on the table again but this time, I don’t flinch. I’m too angry, too annoyed to let anything he’s doing affect me. Tears sting the back of my eyes and I blink them back, pressing my lips into a thin line. “Adrian is the owner of the Ferraro incorporation and the youngest billionaire in the country. The only man—“

A large digital billboard across the street lit up with a broad headline display. LAURENT GROUP STOCK SET TO EXPERIENCE SHARP DECLINE AFTER RIVERTON ACQUISITION DEAL Beneath it stood Adrian’s photograph in a sharp suit and controlled expression. A perfect billionaire image. I stared at it longer than intended, a satisfactory smile flashed across my face. I remembered back then, Adrian standing inside our old apartment wearing rolled-up sleeves while arguing with investors over speakerphone. Exhausted, frustrated and ambitious. Back then he used to come home and collapse beside me on the couch while I handled paperwork he was too tired to finish.

Cain scoffs and Gene glares at him, his eyes rimmed with unshed tears. "You may not have liked your father, but I knew him my entire life. You have no idea who he was or what he did, he was the best man I have ever known and he did not deserve the life he was handed. He should have had your mother by his side, he loved her…" Gene stops and clears his throat before continuing. "I would like to officially give notice of my wish to retire, now Abaddon is gone, I would like to spend the rest of my life quietly with my mate. I am happy to help train the next Beta when you choose them, but I request that you do so quickly, I only stayed on this long because Abaddon was my best friend."

His time at Clearmount College was now his last chance to finish his studies and choose a career within the Brown family, without becoming a disgrace. The son of Amadeus Brown, older brother of Alex Brown, Adrian was the eldest of the second generation of the Browns. His mother, Louise Brown, was of French descent—a stunning woman who had given birth to an exceptional specimen like Adrian. His French heritage made his appearance distinctive and elegant. With a slender, angular face, prominent cheekbones, a defined jawline, and large, expressive green eyes, Adrian's looks were captivating. His dark curly brown hair gave him a carefree and youthful vibe.

he said and his step mother yelled more "don't you ever try that Asher don't..she was still talking when he ended the call and threw the phone back to the table. What nonsense is all this how can she get a girl for me to marry did I in any way tell her or anyone that I need a s**t who wants nothing but my money.wh**es everywhere. My name is Asher Smith CEO of Ash group of companies the number one top manufacturing company in New York and all over the country you can call me a mega Billionaire and that is why I don't want to be tied down with b**ches who only comes to me because of my money and how I handle them in bed.

Adrian was now curious and digging is booted feet in the ground, he went to the club. Adrian was dressed in a black suit, and his muscular body just fit in it so perfectly that it got him that Manish look. He is 6'4 and his height is the perfect one to intimidate his adversaries. His aim of entering the club was for entertainment because little things get his attention lately. Smith who had a confused look on his face followed his friend into the club. "Oh! it had climbed to seven million dollars, whoever has the money and the girl is yours," the stout potbelly man who had the stage to himself spat out as he put the bottle of claret in his mouth and drank directly from it.

Unnegotiable… Adrian alone.

"Awwwwn don't get all mushy mushy on me just because I gave you something that is rightfully yours and besides I had fun,been a while I killed somebody, got my adrenaline pumping so yeah thank you for that!" Adrian said with a smile on his face, smiling too Dominco went silent before speaking again, "I have work to do,later!" "Alright then,good talk!" Adrian said ending the call, sighing his call with Adrian just made him realize he didn't need to search for board members,he already had his own team, dialing Matthews number, "What again Nico?!" Mathew answered,it sounded like he was munching on something, "Is that how to greet a fellow board member!"
