Chapter 1251
The man outside interrupted Adrian.
"Get lost! One more word out of you, and I will kick your ass."
Upon hearing that, Aleigha, who was hiding in the quilt, giggled ceaselessly.
Adrian was trying to get her out of the quilt, but she shook off his hand.
"Hey, stop it. You make one more move, and I will kick your ass." She said that on purpose.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
They stayed in bed until noon.
After lunch, Adrian handed a file bag to Aleigha.
"What's that?" Aleigha sat on the sofa with her legs crossed and opened it.
It contained their ID cards. This was the first time she had seen Adrian's ID.
"Let's get married so I wouldn't be a liar."
"That's not what I want!" Aleigha gave him a cold look and threw the file bag back at him.
She was wearing short shorts, and his eyes turned deeper. This woman was sexing him up all the time.
Knowing how wonderful it was to have sex with
her, he couldn't stop thinking about it.
Without saying anything, he walked up to Aleigha, picked her up, and carried her on his shoulders.
Instead of giving her a chance to say no, he took her to the bathroom.
"Aleigha, get a shower and change your clothes. If you don't marry me today, I'll show you what I want."
In the end, they came to the city hall.
When they came out, Aleigha had their marriage certificate in her hand.
She had mixed feelings.
She married Adrian, didn't she?
"Where do you want the wedding to be?"
Adrian was driving, but he was still watching her every move.
Wedding?
Her dream weddings came in all shapes and sizes. She used to think she'd never have a wedding.
She had thought she had neither the ability nor the right to marry the man she loved. She lived for revenge.
But now, Adrian was going to give her a wedding.
"I have never thought about it."
There was a hint of sadness in her tone of voice.
At a red light, Adrian rubbed her face and said, "You can think about it now."
"Am I dreaming? We're married? Pinch me. If I was dreaming, I'd wake up."
Adrian didn't know whether to laugh or not. "Don't you really know if it's a dream?"
Aleigha pouted and didn't say anything.
At dinner time, someone came to visit them.
It was the policemen.
"Miss Gardner, Mr. Xiao, please come with us to the police station. We need to do ask you some questions."
Adrian vaguely remembered what happened yesterday and looked at Aleigha.
"Well, okay, let's go."
Adrian didn't forget that he was drugged. He was just too happy to deal with it today.
He changed his clothes and went to the police station. When it was over, his men got the results back on his blood. There were indeed traces of the drug in his blood.
Out of the police station, Adrian lit a cigarette. He told the driver to leave first and drove off with Aleigha himself. "I'll take you to see a guy. He's very interesting."
"The man I saw yesterday?"
Aleigha did not even think about it. Subconsciously, she thought it was the man she met at the restaurant.
The corners of Adrian's mouth curled into a satisfied smile. He was very satisfied with the rapport between them.
The car pulled into a secluded villa. They saw the bluestone path and the spring water.
It was a unique place.
As soon as they arrived, Aleigha was attracted by the scenery.
It was winter, and it snowed not long ago. But it was like spring here.
As if this place was far away from the mortal world.
The car stopped outside the door. Adrian
her hand and
thed. They saw at
man.
Seeing them, the thin man respectfully nodded at Adrian and led them into the house.

As soon as they entered, Aleigha's eyes lit up. It was decorated in the old style.
There wasn't much decoration. A picture of Qi Baishi hung on the wall of the living room.
Qi Baishi was a master of Chinese painting.
Adrian pointed at the painting and smiled. "He paid 900 million on this.
"He is a painting addict, and he loves Qi Baishi."
Aleigha nodded in silence.
"Adrian, after
dare you come to me
me yesterday? Are
anning mey
to apologize? But why did you bring her here?"
Adrian snorted and sat Aleigha down on the sofa.
"She's the only one who can help you with what you want to do.
"But there are conditions.
"When you get what you want, you're gonna help me extend my reach into Fripdence."
Tanner looked at Adrian and narrowed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something. "Fripdence? Are you sure? It's dangerous."
A shadow of a smile touched Adrian's mouth. "You think it's gonna scare me?"
"Well, fine. Come with me."
The two of them followed Tanner to
a
the second floor. Aed
the door open, they realized
it was a girl's room.
The room was decorated in pink, which was in sharp contrast to the whole house.
Tanner opened a drawer. There was an album in it. He took out a photo and handed it to Aleigha. "She's my youngest sister. I lost her in City A about 20 years ago.
"She may be the only sister I have left. I hope you can help me find her, Miss Gardner."
Taking the photo, Aleigha looked at it carefully. It was a little girl about five or six years old.
It was really hard to find someone who got lost 20 years ago.
"But I'm not sure..."
Aleigha looked at Tanner and then at Adrian.
"The Woods family." Adrian reminded her.
Aleigha understood what he meant in an instant.
A sense of warmth welled up in her heart. Adrian wanted her to use what Samuel gave her.
She'd been thinking a lot about what to do with it.
She guessed she could use it to help Tanner.
She was not just helping Tanner. She was helping Adrian. It was a win-win situation.
"Okay, I'll do my best."
Adrian and Aleigha left after dinner.
On the way, Aleigha was still looking at the picture.
"What Samuel gave you can do more than find a person.
"It'll bring you more benefits."
"Well, I understand. Are you free on weekend? I want to practice shooting.
"I haven't done it for a long time."
"Okay, I'll go with you."
When they got home, the monitor called Aleigha.
Phoebe was still in the police station. No matter what she said, the police didn't buy it.
What would happen to her depended on what her family would do.
Hanging up the phone, Aleigha was a little unhappy.
