Chapter 1289
"I don't blame you. Why should I? I just envy Adrian. His parents would take him to amusement parks when he was little. "His parents were always there for him, and my parents were always there for money.
"Can I complain? According to you, I should listen to you because you gave birth to me. What can I complain about?" Darien's mother looked at Darien in disbelief. She continuously took a few steps back, as if she were looking at a monster.
"And now Adrian's only working with me for old times' sake. He doesn't want me to lose too badly.
"Oh, do you think he can't do it alone? You know what? Your son is the only one who's a waste of money.
"He can't even beat a woman. You think he can beat Adrian?"
"Shut up. You're crazy." Darien's mother rushed forward and slapped Darien in the face.
Darien sneered. "I am crazy. Hahaha..."
Coming out of Darien's place, Adrian felt a depression he had never felt before. He had always been indifferent and kept people at arm's length.
However, it did not mean that he had no feelings. He had been putting up with Darien because they were once the best brothers.
He would help him one last time. After this, they would just be strangers.
When Adrian returned to his office, he saw a black, gold-plated invitation on his desk.
Most people wouldn't use a black invitation. The inviter must be no ordinary person.
It was kind of mysterious.
"Who's been in my office?"
The new secretary had worked for Aleigha. She was reliable.
"Only the cleaner."
Adrian opened up the security footage. The secretary was right. However, she received a document while the cleaner was in his office.
Then, when she wasn't noticing, the cleaner put the invitation on the desk.
After cleaning up, she left his office with the cleaner, without checking his desk.
When Adrian got home, he told Aleigha about the invitation.
Looking at the invitation, Aleigha's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness.
"I think it's Lennon. Who else would do this?"
"I'll send you to Jaidyn's place and go there myself."
Aleigha didn't say anything. She seemed a little unhappy, and she had her own plan.
On Friday, Adrian had a meeting. It was a negotiation with an Italian client.
If this went through, his products would officially dominate the entire Europe.
He valued the negotiation very much and had prepared a lot in advance. On Thursday, he had his secretary pick up the Italian client.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, however, his client did not come.
His secretary came back with a face was full of anger. "Someone took our client to Shangri-La Hotel.
"I tried to get the client back, but their men stopped me.
"Mr. Xiao, who did this?"
"Are you sure it's Shangri-La Hotel?" Adrian asked in a deep voice.
The secretary nodded. "Yes. Our men are still there. They'll keep you posted."
"Okay, cancel all my appointments today. I'll go there."
The Italian client was recommended to Adrian by Jaidyn. For this, Adrian gave him power of attorney over two countries in Europe. Jaidyn would never say no to money.
Adrian was under attack from every side. He thanked Jaidyn for willing to give him a hand.
Adrian drove straight to Shangri-La Hotel. Jaidyn was a shareholder in this hotel.
Adrian wondered if he should call Jaidyn. The next second, he saw Jaidyn, who was saying goodbye to his client.
Seeing Adrian, Jaidyn wanted to escape. But the next thing he knew, Adrian rushed to him and hugged his shoulder.
"Mr. Galloway, where are you going? Here's a good thing. I need you to be a part of it."
"Adrian, my brain aches when I see you and your woman."
Adrian's face darkened and he said with a sneer, "My Italian client is here.
"He was abducted. If I make a scene here, your hotel..."
"I'll have someone look into it right away.
"Adrian, was he really abducted?"
Adrian nodded and let go of Jaidyn. He smoothed his suit, and his face was cool again.
"Why would I lie to you?"
"Lennon did it?"
Adrian nodded.
"Did you receive an invitation, too?"
Adrian nodded again.
"I heard he inherited tens of billions. That's really interesting.
"Do you think Aleigha can beat him again?
"She cost Darien almost 5 billions last time.
How long do you t
's gonna last with think met

of
Jaidyn liked to talk about how Aleigha made Darien lose 5 billion bucks. He admired Aleigha very much.
Hence, he wanted to stay away from this woman. What if she wanted to take his money?
Although he was incredibly loaded, he didn't want to take any risks.
"What are you going to do?"
"Get my client back."
Adrian remained calm and composed, as he already had a plan.
It didn't take long for them to know which room
the client was in.
Then, Adrian dragged Jaidyn along to look for his client.
The client was an overseas Chinese who immigrated to Italy as a child.
He had heard about Adrian before. He didn't buy Adrian's products because he had a traditional business.
But times were moving too fast and his business needed to transform.
Later on, because of Jaidyn, he decided to give Adrian a chance. However, as soon as he came out of the airport, he was brought here.
When
I knocked on the door
and
in, he saw his client
sitting together, chat andet
and
"Myles, what are you doing?" Jaidyn walked to Myles Rogers and glanced at Lennon.
Myles was a middle-aged fat man his early forties. He had a pair
sharp
in
, and he was of me of net
height.
Compared to Adrian and Jaidyn, he was much shorter.
"Jaidyn, what are you doing?"
"This is Adrian Xiao."
Jaidyn pointed at the man behind him, and only then did Myles know that something had gone wrong.
"Mr. Landry brought me here. I don't know what is going on between you guys.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
"I just want the most advanced equipment and technology."
Lennon stood up and extended his hand towards Jaidyn. "Mr. Galloway, nice to meet you."
Jaidyn looked down at Lennon's hand and ignored it. Instead, he reached out and grabbed Myles's hand.
"Come here. I have something to say to you."
After that, Lennon turned to look at Adrian. "Mr. Xiao, I'm sorry I ruined it for you."
