Chapter 1754


    "I''ll answer the phone call first." Adrienne saw Barrett''s phone number.


    She picked up the phone and went to the balcony to answer it.


    Delmont didn''t just stand there. He went to wash the red bayberries.


    "Hello?" Adrienne''s voice was very apathetic.


    "Have you... been released?" Barrett''s voice was a little shocked.


    Why had she been released? Who was helping her?


    Words couldn''t describe how painful Adrienne''s heart was when she heard that.


    "Shouldn''t I be released?" Her voice was extremely cold, and her question was sharp.


    Barrett was stunned. He did not seem to understand Adrienne very much.


    When his other daughters were acting coquettishly in his arms, Adrienne just stood aside and


    watched them indifferently. She was as lofty as her mother, and her personality was very


    unpleasant.


    "Adrienne, now Simpson Group is in a mess. Tomorrow morning, you must go to thepany to


    deal with the affairs of the investors. The gate of Simpson Group is about to be torn down by them.


    Those people go too far. Why didn''t they act like this when they made money?"


    Adrienne knew that Simpson Group had been summoned for a meeting, and the share prices took a


    sharp tumble. The investors could not stand it and made a scene in Simpson Group.


    The result was entirely predictable. No, it was a part of Victor''s n.


    "Aren''t you clear about what you''ve done? What''s more, you''ve never regarded me as your


    daughter!" Adrienne said angrily.


    She had never been happy since she was a child, because she had such a selfish and cruel father.


    The years when she was with Delmont were the happiest days in her life.


    "Adrienne, what are you talking about? How can I never regard you as my daughter?"


    "Adrienne, the butler said that you moved out. Where do you live? Are you used to living there?


    How about dad buying a new house for you?"


    "You have to deal with the affairs in thepany properly. Now you are the only one that our family


    can rely on."


    Adrienne sneered. Barrett thought too highly of her.


    "You want to sit idle and enjoy the fruits of my work, don''t you? You registered me as the legal


    representative of thepany. Isn''t it because you want to sacrifice me at any time when


    something goes wrong?"


    Barrett lost to Victor because he valued money too much. They attached great importance to profit


    and never put the money in her bank ounts. That was why she could be released so soon.


    From all aspects of view, Barrett was blinded by greed. How could he care about her?


    "Adrienne, you really misunderstand me." Barrett''s voice sounded very sad.


    However, Adrienne was not touched at all.


    He was blinded by benefits and was enchanted by women. Did he know what familial love was?


    "I''ll go to thepany. Don''t call me again." Adrienne said and hung up the phone.


    Turning around, she saw Delmont holding a te of red bayberries and looking at her quietly.


    He was very tall. His bangs were slightly messy, which made his well-defined features look very


    gentle. The apartment was very big, but it seemed to have be small because of him. The way


    he looked at her was always so tender and affectionate.


    Delmont raised the te in his hand, "Adrienne, eat the red bayberries. They''re very sweet."


    "Okay!" Adrienne walked over and felt warm in heart. The ufortable feeling seemed to have


    vanished in an instant.


    Delmont picked up a red bayberry and fed her in a natural way.


    "It''s so sweet. Where did Eden pick it?" Adrienne took the te and ate the red bayberries on the


    sofa.


    Delmont sat next to her, "In the farm. Adrienne, feed me one."


    Adrienne blushed slightly, "You''re not disabled. Why should I feed you?"


    "We fed each other before, didn''t we?" Delmont looked at her with a slightly aggrieved expression.


    Adrienne''s eyes shed. She lowered her head and said, "Delmont, we... have broken up." He had


    not said that he wanted to be with her again.


    She... had been waiting for him to say it. Women were just so affected sometimes. Since he hadn''t


    asked her to be with him again, she really couldn''t treat him as her boyfriend.


    Delmont was stunned. Were they not lovers?


    He liked her so much that he could do anything for her.


    He was unwilling to give up, but he couldn''t win her heart when he tried his best. No one could


    understand this kind of mood.


    Every night, he dreamed of her frowns and smiles. He once kissed her lips and stroke her


    eyebrows. He knew how sweet she was.


    Thinking about this, Delmont said uncontrobly, "Adrienne, let''s get married."


    Adrienne''s heart trembled violently.


    Delmont looked at her quietly. Under the light, her features were exquisite, and her skin was fair and


    smooth. She was mature and charming. His Adrienne had always been so beautiful.


    After a long while, Adrienne came to sense from shock. She smiled tenderly and said, "Delmont,


    you haven''t started to pursue me yet."


    "Ha-ha..." Delmont chuckled with joy.


    Adrienne blushed instantly and only lowered her head to eat red bayberries.


    "Adrienne, we''re in a rtionship now. I didn''t break up with you back then." At that time, only she


    said that she wanted to break up, and he didn''t agree.


    "You''re shameless." Adrienne red at him. His smile was very gentle, and his smiling eyes were


    very bright.


    "Adrienne, we''ve been dating. From now on, Miss Simpson and I have officially be lovers."


    How could Delmont not know what she was thinking?


    Only then did Adrienne grin. She fed Delmont a red bayberry.


    "Is it sweet?" Adrienne''s lips were stained with some red bayberry juice.


    "Yeah, but you''re sweeter." Delmont smiled wickedly and kissed her.


    ......


    After resting for another two days, Eden finally went to thepany.


    What Pa had done did not spread in thepany. People who did not know thought that she


    had resigned.


    People who knew about it didn''t mention it to others. Of course, this was Victor''s order.


    Even Dean didn''t dare to mention Pa''s name in front of Eden.


    Some of the things that Eden was concerned about had been dealt with.


    Originally, she wanted to test Danielle, and she had known the result. Victor took back her design


    drafts. Danielle''s copy was exactly the same. If it weren''t for the fact that it was hard to copy some


    of the details, even she would think that it was Danielle''s own design.


    Therefore, no one had leaked the design drafts of Alwynn Group. The only possibility was that


    Danielle had copied her design and sent it to Dahlia.


    Eden satzily on the swivel chair and looked at the design drafts on the screen casually, sighing in


    heart. Danielle really surprised her.


    She was so good at copying.


    After Victor came back from the morning meeting, he saw her staring at theputer in a daze.


    "Honey, what are you looking at?"


    Eden said with a cunning expression in eyes, "Handsome guys."

    Victor''s face instantly darkened.


    Dean, who followed him in, was speechless. He shouldn''t havee in.


    If Eden made Victor unhappy early in the morning, they would have to suffer all day long.


    "Let me see who it is!" Victor walked over with a vicious face.


    At this moment, Dean really wanted to run away.
