Chapter 1217
"The Middle East?"
"That area is chaotic, but Adrian promises to protect you."
Marcos smiled gladly as if that chaos would disappear with Adrian's promises. Aleigha could not help rolling her eyes at Marcos.
"It is a place to court death instead of celebrating the new year! Please enjoy your trip, and I would stay at home."
Aleigha refused Adrian without any hesitation. She had so much work to do and didn't want to die yet.
Her life sucked, but she loved it!
"Aleigha, where are your manners? It is a kindness from Adrian."
Marcos was displeased. There was coldness in his eyes, and he sounded sullen.
Aleigha didn't miss any changes of Marcos. She sneered coldly in her heart, 'Wait and see! One day you won't dare to pull a poker face in front of me."
"Sure enough, she will go with me. What she said is a joke!"
Adrian stood up and walked towards Aleigha.
There seemed to be spring in his eyes, and Aleigha was ready to drown in them.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Aleigha took a step subconsciously. She did not believe that Adrian would be as kind as to travel with her.
Death in the Middle East was not news at all.
"You, you, you, stop. I won't go. I'm too young to die."
Adrian couldn't hear Aleigha prattle anymore. He went up to carry Aleigha on his shoulders and left, leaving Marcos in astonishment.
"You psycho! Why don't you give me some time to pack up! What are you doing?"
Without response, Adrian threw her into the car.
After getting in the car, he said, "If I don't use violence, you can spend all day finding excuses to refuse this trip."
Aleigha glared at him, "Only fools will go without resistances."
"Come on! Let me go! I don't want to die with you. I promise to visit your grave next year!"
Adrian felt amused and angry at the same time. He pulled Aleigha close to himself.
Before Aleigha resisted, Adrian kissed her lips, "You are sharp-tongued. You can't marry after I die."
"Hey, how heartless you are! Why can't I pursue my happiness after you die?"
Aleigha was infuriated.
"I'm afraid that you suffer wrong, like being scolded or beaten."
Aleigha was stunned by this answer and felt warm at heart.
Adrian drove to the airport. His private jet had been waiting for a long time.
In the jet, Aleigha realized that this trip was an elaborate plan, and Adrian already prepared what she needed.
In other words, Aleigha needed to prepare nothing.
Adrian went to the Middle East for business. He took Aleigha with him because this trip took time.
Aleigha figured out the situation after boarding the jet.
Those wars in the Middle East were caused by oil.
People like Adrian were ambitious enough to extend his business into the oil field.
The Xiao family had businesses in different fields, but Adrian was the first to get involved in the oil field.
This business was dangerous, and Aleigha could foresee what awaited her on this trip.
To Aleigha's surprise, Adrian stopped at Cario in Egypt rather than the Middle East.
Getting off the plane, Aleigha was still in a trance.
Adrian led Aleigha by the hand, and their luggages were sent to the hotel.
Adrian drove to Akritlens with Aleigha.
It was in the north of Egypt. It was the capital, as well as the political and economical center.
Aleigha travelled abroad for the first time. She felt uneasy on this strange land at first.
However, she loved the feeling of travelling. Adrian took Aleigha to a famous restaurant.
"It is safe here. Relax."
Adrian knew his woman well.
Aleigha needed time to adapt to this new environment. The woman Adrian loved wouldn't be a coward. Aleigha enjoyed her food and didn't respond to Adrian. Gradually, she regained her calmness and ease.
Adrian was glad that his words calmed Aleigha down.
After lunch, Adrian strolled about Akritlens with Aleigha.
Aleigha was satisfied with this leisure and got
interested in this strange land.
"Enjoy yourself here. We will visit the pyramids tomorrow."
Pyramids? Aleigha got excited, but there was only a faint smile on her face.
Adrian felt that Aleigha became sophisticated.
Back in the hotel, Aleigha found that Adrain booked one suite only.
It was a presidential suite with one large bed only.
It was a peaceful night. Adrain was ybird. Early in the morning, he

When Aleigha got up, breakfast would be ready for her.
Adrian felt happy with this kind of life.
Aleigha sat up against the sunlight. She had a sound sleep last night.
She felt at ease with Adrian around, though it was against her will.
"Come, wash up and have breakfast."
Adrian was gentle to Aleigha, and she took it for granted. They got along well with each other.
After breakfast, they went sightseeing.
Adrian took the lead, and Aleigha followed behind
without scruple.
Aleigha once heard of the greatness of pyramids, but the real architecture impressed her beyond words.
Adrian took it easy and did some explanations to Aleigha from time to time.
They strolled and chatted. Suddenly, Adrian's eyes darkened.
Feeling the tension in the air, Aleigha couldn't help gripping Adrian's hand.
She regretted not taking her pistol with her.
"If anything happens, you leave first and meet in the parking lot. They have no guts to hurt me."
Aleigha shot a squint to Adrian, "Adrian, I'll marry again if you die."

"Then let's leave together. I have nothing to fear about. What are you worried about?"
Aleigha stared at Adrian firmly and determinedly.
"All right."
Adrian grabbed Aleigha's hand and sped up.
Only three men trailed Adrian and Aleigha, so Aleigha believed that there wouldn't be grave dangers.
It needed more men to knock down Adrian.
