Chapter 1061


    Bemy didn''t mean to me Adam, but his tone was sincere, "I know, your love for Rory was not


    deep since she had died after you got married for only three months... But the Hsu family is noble


    and has always enjoyed a good reputation in Ice city. The marriage between our two families is well-


    known, and our interests are closely rted. Although Rory has passed away for more than two


    years, in the eyes of others, you are still the son-inw of the Hsu family!"


    Adam said in a low voice, "Yeah."


    Just as Adam came out of the study, his cell phone in his trouser pocket vibrated.


    He took out the phone, and when he saw the caller''s name on the screen, his expression changed


    slightly.


    Anthea''s young and delicate face appeared in his mind, whose sparkling eyes were shining brightly.


    When she smiled, her two small dimples appeared on her face, which made her face so bright that


    it could drive away all annoyances.


    When she called him, her voice was soft.


    Like a feather, it flew over his heart, leaving ripples.


    Adam thought about the night when they were in the small ss box on the Ferris Wheel. When he


    opened his eyes, he saw her face right before him as her sweet breath entangled with his...


    Adam''s chest heaved up and down, his eyes looking gloomy.


    As soon as Wilson finished a meeting in thepany, he came downstairs and saw Adam standing


    before Bemy''s study with his mobile phone in his hand.


    Adam was looking at the screen but didn''t have any intention to pick it up for a long while.


    Wilson went over and asked in confusion, "Adam, who is calling? Why don''t you answer it?"


    Upon hearing the voice, Adam knew it was Wilson asking. At present, there were only two of them


    at home. Their youngest brother, Simon, was still abroad learning medicine.


    After turning over his hand to cover the phone, he said lightly, "No one."


    However, Wilson had keen eyes. He lifted his sses, which were iid with tinum, and asked,


    "Is that your niece who you met recently?"


    When Carter went to Chin''s Mansion to deliver some documents, he told Wilson about Anthea.


    "Go away," Adam nced at Wilson and said.


    Wilson raised his eyebrows and said, "I was only asking! She is your niece, not your girlfriend!"


    Seeing that Adam looked unwilling to talk about this anymore, Wilson couldn''t help changing the


    topic, "Adam, what did dad talk to you about?"


    "It''s about the affairs in the army," Adam answered.


    As Adam''s brother, Wilson noticed that his tone sounded strange, so he asked, "Is that all?"


    Adam did not answer. He took out a cigarette box from his trouser pocket, picked out a cigarette,


    and put it in his mouth. After taking a puff of smoke, he asked in a low voice, "Wilson, do you think


    we can still do whatever we want?"


    Wilson froze for a moment,ughed in a self-deprecating way, and said, "Adam, we all know the


    answer since the day we were born, don''t we?"


    Adam took a big puff of smoke. Drifting smoke blurred the expression on his face.


    Seeing that Adam did not answer her call, Anthea bit her lips tightly.


    The music in the KTV box had never stopped. Holly, who had just finished a song, pulled Anthea


    and said, "Anthea, you have been sitting here since youe. Come and sing a song! Which song


    do you want to sing? I''ll order for you!"


    They had made an appointment before to celebrate


    Alexandra''s birthday.


    In the evening, the girls had changed their school uniforms into their own clothes. They didn''t dare


    to go to bars again after what happenedst time. Therefore, they simply changed into ordinary


    jeans and t-shirt before they left the school.


    After having a meal at a small restaurant, they went to arge KTV.


    When they arrived at the KTV box, the waiter brought over a fruit tray. Anthea''s roommates had


    already rushed to sing, and the birthday cake was ced in the middle of the table.


    Although tonight was a good day to celebrate, Anthea was a little absent-minded.


    "You guys sing. My throat doesn''t feel veryfortable today. I will rest for a bit!" She pretended to


    be ufortable and waved her hand.


    Seeing this, Holly did not push her. She took a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Anthea,


    "Okay, have some water!"


    "Sure!" Anthea smiled.


    As the song sounded, Holly couldn''t help getting up and running to sing again.


    One song after another, and there was only half of the cake left. Later on, two girls went to the


    bathroom while Alexandria went to the bar on the first floor to buy some more beverages. They


    sang so happily and needed to moisten their throats.


    Anthea, who was sitting alone in her seat, kept holding her cell phone.


    She called twice at that time, but Adam did not answer.


    "Is he busy, or did he not answer my calls on purpose?" Somehow, Anthea felt that Adam did it on


    purpose...


    "Could it be that he had found out how I feel about him?"


    Anthea thought about that day in the amusement park. For some reason, she did something despite


    herself. When she came to her senses, her lips were a few centimeters away from Adam''s. And he


    suddenly opened his eyes.


    At that time, she was also very nervous, but he acted very dispassionately as if nothing had


    happened. When he sent her back to school, he was calm without any expressions on his face.


    But now, Anthea felt that he deliberately alienated her...


    Her heart was restless and agitated.


    Anthea lowered her head and scratched her long hair recklessly.


    At this time, the door of the private box was pushed open, and Anthea subconsciously raised her


    head. It was not Alexandria entering but the waiter with a small stic basket which contained


    several bottles of juice and coke. Then he put the beverages on the table.


    Anthea was not surprised, thinking that Alexandria ordered.


    The waiter looked at her with hesitation and said, "Miss, I saw a drunk man was harassing the girl


    who came with you with a ponytail!"


    "What?" Anthea stood up.


    "I think he was dragging the girl out of the KTV. You guys are in a private box. I think it''s better to tell


    you!" The waiter was young and looked very kind.


    Holly and Rosie both had short hair. Apart from Anthea, Alexandria was the only one with long hair


    and a ponytail.


    Anthea was worried, thinking that the waiter was kind. And Alexandria did go downstairs to order


    some beverages. She thought Alexandria must have been unlucky to meet another drunkard.


    They had been in danger when they went to the bar before, but she didn''t expect that it would


    happen again in a KTV!


    Anthea was very worried. Without a second thought, she rushed out of the door.


    Feeling that waiting for the elevator was a waste of time, Anthea ran to the hall of KTV on the first


    floor, went out of the revolving door, and looked around anxiously. The light was slightly dark, and


    she did not see anyone.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    She frowned and wanted to go back to ask the receptionist.


    As soon as Anthea turned around, she felt a sharp pain in the back of her neck. Then her eyes went


    nk, and she lost consciousness.
