Chapter 222 Quality Contract
All of this happened too suddenly. When Adele met the man’s clear and bright eyes, she was at a loss for what to do.
“Ye An, I…”
Owen’s voice was gentle enough to not give her any psychological pressure. “Adele, don’t worry. I’ll give you time. Think about it carefully…”
Adele lowered his eyes and looked at everything in the room. A layer of waves appeared in his heart.
There had never been a man who cared so much about her. Moreover, the man in front of her was gentle and considerate. He was the most perfect boyfriend in her mind. However, for some reason, she was a little hesitant…
“Pa!”
A sudden sound came from behind the table in the room, followed by Emily’s voice, “Ouch…”
Adele was stunned and turned to look. “Emily?”
Emily slowly stood up from behind the table. A trace of embarrassment flashed across his face. He smiled embarrassedly. “I accidentally touched something. You guys continue…”
At the side, Owen did not know whether to laugh or cry. The atmosphere that he had created with great difficulty was disturbed by her, and he immediately felt nothing.
When Emily saw the change in his brother’s expression, he knew that it was not the right time to expose himself, so he simply did not hide. He stood up and walked to Adele’s side. He used his elbow to touch her arm and said in a low voice, “Adele, my brother has liked you for a long time! Others might not know, but I know clearly that his room still has your photo!”Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Owen’s face as he cleared his throat. “Emily, don’t spout nonsense…”
“I’m not spouting nonsense. Brother, why aren’t you admitting it? Didn’t you like our family’s Adele for a long time?”
“…”
When Adele heard this, he immediately felt a little embarrassed, and a blush appeared on his cheeks.
Seeing the shy expression on the woman’s face, Owen took a deep breath and asked again, “Adele, have you thought it through? Are you willing to be my girlfriend?”
“I…”
Seeing the man hand over the bouquet of flowers, Adele bit her lips and hesitated to accept it.
At this moment, she suddenly felt a gaze from the side, and a chill unconsciously crept up her back.
She subconsciously turned her head and saw Damon standing outside the door, a pair of dark and dark eyes staring at her.
The next second, her heart tightened, and a trace of panic flashed across her face.
When was he here? How much did he hear?
The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange. Adele bit her lips. The impulse she had originally had seemed to have been extinguished by a basin of cold water. She raised her head and met Owen’s expectant gaze. She gritted her teeth and said, “I’m sorry, Ye An. I’m not ready yet…”
She did not hate him, but she also did not like him. Just because she was moved and accepted his love, she could not do it.
After she finished speaking, she turned around and quickly walked out of the lounge. She ran past Damon without raising her head. Her mind was in a mess.
“Adele!”
“Adele, where are you going?”
Behind her, she remembered Owen and Emily calling out at the same time. Adele gritted her teeth and quickened her pace. She wanted to quickly escape from here and be alone.
She did not understand why the moment she saw Damon, the hesitation in her heart instantly turned into rejection, and she did not know why she felt guilty.
She ran all the way out of the venue and arrived at the wide square outside. Adele stopped and gasped for breath.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind her. Then, the man’s deep voice sounded. “Adele, why are you running?”
The next second, her wrist was grabbed by someone. She was pulled by a force. She turned around and met Damon’s cold face.
“What are you doing?” “Let go!” Adele frowned slightly.
Before she could finish her words, she was dragged by Damon towards the parking lot next to her. The man was very strong, with a sense of no resistance. He forcefully pulled her to the side of the car, opened the door and stuffed her in.
The door of the car was closed and locked. Adele was trapped in the passenger seat. She suddenly felt a burst of anger in her heart. “Damon, are you sick?”
She did not do anything. Why did he treat her like this?
When Damon heard this, his eyebrows tightened. There seemed to be a bit of hostility in his body, and he pressed down on her without any explanation.
When he got a little closer, Adele took a step back until her whole body was pressed against the car door and shrunk into the small corner of the passenger seat. There was nowhere to hide. The man reached out and held her shoulder.
The coldness in Damon’s eyes slipped and his thin lips pursed into a line. He said in an extremely cold voice, “If I hadn’t appeared just now, would you have agreed to him?”
When he appeared at the door, he clearly saw the shyness and hesitation on the woman’s face and eyes. If he had been a step later, he would have seen the two of them hugging each other and ending happily.
When he thought of this, Damon only felt a fire burning in his heart, warm, hot and hot.
The hand holding her shoulder couldn’t help but tighten. Damon asked in a low voice, “Huh? Is it?”
Adele endured the pain and a trace of panic flashed through her eyes. She gritted her teeth and raised her eyes to meet his gaze. She mustered up the courage to ask, “Even if I agree to him, it has nothing to do with you, right?”
These words were like a gust of cold air that instantly lowered the temperature in the car to the lowest.
Damon’s gaze was frighteningly cold. He stared at the woman’s stubborn little face. Two seconds later, he snorted coldly. “Have you forgotten the contract you signed?” Within the contract period, you are not allowed to have any contact with the opposite sex other than me! ”
When Adele heard this, she widened her eyes in shock. “Impossible!”
At that time, she had deliberately looked through the terms of the contract. Although she did not look carefully, she did not see such a clause!
“Damon, I also have a contract in my hand. Don’t try to deceive me!”
At that time, there were two copies of the contract. The first and second sides each had one copy. With Damon’s words, she would not believe it!
“Is that so?” “Since you don’t believe me, why don’t you take out the contract and we can confront each other face to face?” Damon sneered.
“Yes, yes!” Adele bit her lips angrily.
Although she signed the contract, it was not his item. She would only follow the terms of the contract and would not allow him to threaten her with the contract!
Damon started the car, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and the car flew out.
After more than twenty minutes, they arrived at their destination. The car stopped downstairs of the apartment. Adele took a deep breath and bit her lips. “I’ll go up and get the contract. Wait for me.”
As she spoke, she was about to open the door and get out of the car, but before she could step out, her wrist was grabbed.
“I’ll go with you,” Damon said heavily.
He was not a fool. If she did not return, how could he confront her?
Adele frowned. Her thoughts were seen through, but she had nothing to say. She could only let him go up with her.
When she returned to the apartment and opened the door, Adele took a deep breath. “You wait at the door. I’ll go get the contract.”
After that, she walked into the bedroom and took out the contract from the drawer.
As she walked out, she flipped through the documents. After sweeping through all the clauses, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
There was nothing that could not be touched by the opposite sex. It was really Damon who was spouting nonsense!
She walked to the living room. When she looked down and inadvertently glanced at a line of small characters in the brackets at the bottom, her body suddenly froze.
