Chapter 320
After speaking, Jason didn’t forget to speak kindly for his goddess.
“Don’t you know? Vivian missed you so much recently. Look at you, even if you’re busy with work, you shouldn’t ignore Vivian’s calls p>
Upon hearing this, John also glanced at Jason.
He was one of the few people who dared to speak frankly to Adrian, partly because they had a good relationship since childhood, and partly because their families had a good relationship as well.
So Adrian had a higher tolerance for this group of childhood friends.
Some knew their limits and didn’t dare to say anything.
But someone like Jason, who never knows when to stop speaking, has always been like this since childhood. No matter how many times Adrian warned him, he couldn’t change.
Sometimes Adrian couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to what comes out of his mouth.
Just like now, after Jason said these words, Adrian acted as if he hadn’t heard anything, and calmly said, “There’s no need for you to come all the way here to see me. If there’s nothing important, you should go back early.” With that, Adrian continued straight ahead.
“Close the door, please p>
“Adrian p>
Jason reached out and blocked his action on the door panel, calling out discontentedly, “It was okay for you to be indifferent when we arrived, but now that we’ve come to your door, you can’t even invite us in for a cup of tea? We flew all the way from New York just to find you as soon as we landed p>
Adrian’s forehead veins bulged. “I’m busy today. Let’s talk another day p>
Not to mention that he had two kids waiting for him at home, and Eva would be coming later. Leaving these few people here would only make things more complicated. So Adrian ruthlessly sent them away.
Jason was extremely displeased. “Adrian, what’s wrong with you now? Do you not consider us friends anymore? Can’t you at least let us in to talk? We don’t need tea p>
Because of his firm decision, Vivian felt uncomfortable too, with tears welling up in her eyes and biting her lower lip.
“Adrian, we just wanted to come and see you p>
Adrian’s sharp gaze turned towards John, who touched his nose and said. “How about this, Adrian seems to have work matters to deal with. How about we come back another day p>
Before John could finish his sentence, a soft, childish voice interrupted.
“Uncle NightA, do we have visitors p>
Adrian’s gaze tightened.
And the sudden appearance of the girl’s voice attracted everyone’s attention.
When they looked over, they saw a little girl in a dress standing at the staircase.
Her skin was fair, her eyes sparkling as if they could talk, and she held a model airplane in her hand, looking curiously in their direction.
When Vivian saw her face, which bore a striking resemblance to Adrian, she instantly froze, feeling as if she had entered an ice cave.
A thought emerged in her mind.
John was also surprised when he saw the child’s appearance, but he remained calm, squinting his eyes as he looked at the girl who stood at the staircase, still in her childishness, bearing a strong resemblance to Adrian. As he gazed, he felt like he saw a shadow of a certain woman from five years ago.
John arched an eyebrow, as if suddenly understanding something.
Vivian quickly reacted as well. This girl definitely didn’t just suddenly appear in Adrian’s house. She was dressed so delicately and held a model airplane.
And she called Adrian “Uncle NightA p>
Uncle NightA?
What did that mean?
Did Adrian have any other nickname besides his name that she didn’t know about?
Thinking this, Vivian’s expression on her face was almost impossible to maintain.
She looked at Adrian’s cold and handsome face and asked with difficulty, “Adrian, may I ask who this child is p>
John raised an eyebrow, silently watching Adrian, waiting for his answer.
After hearing Vivian’s words, John suddenly looked at the little girl standing at the staircase entrance and asked, “Adrian, is this girl your child? She looks so much like you p>
With this question, Vivian’s already strained expression became even more unpleasant. Her hand, hanging by her side, clenched into a fist, with her long nails almost piercing into her flesh.
“Impossible, right?” she awkwardly forced a smile, but her smile lacked sincerity. “In the past, there were many children who resembled Adrian brought to him. But those were all thoroughly investigated. A bunch of deranged people who performed plastic surgery on kids, trying to climb up using Adrian. Could this child be one of them p>
Though she said that, Vivian couldn’t help but doubt herself as she looked at the little girl’s extremely natural eyes and features, as well as the strong spiritual energy emanating from her. She gradually lost confidence in her own words. If the child came from a plastic surgery clinic, how could her facial features be so naturally adorable? It felt as if they had developed naturally. What scared her even more was that she actually thought the child’s eyes and eyebrows resembled not only Adrian but also… that woman!
Vivian didn’t want to mention that woman’s name again because, if not for her, she and Adrian would have been engaged by now.
Ruby stood at the staircase entrance, noticing several people standing at the door. Other than Uncle NightA, there were two men and one woman, all looking at her face and observing her.
Perhaps because she had been constantly scrutinized for being cute since she was little, Ruby didn’t feel uncomfortable at all under their gazes. Instead, she stood confidently in place, allowing these people to observe her. Adrian furrowed his brows tightly. He had no intention of revealing these matters until Eva and the child fully accepted him. The more people knew, the more uncertainty and unexpected situations would arise, which was not a favorable outcome for Adrian.
Therefore, he immediately frowned at the group and said, “What does this have to do with you? Leave before I get angry p>
Jason, who seemed oblivious to Adrian’s anger, as if he couldn’t understand it, even wanted to enter the house.
“Why should we leave? Adrian, you haven’t answered my question yet. Whose child is this p>
Seeing him trying to enter the house, Adrian’s gaze suddenly became sharp. He grabbed Jason’s collar and threw him outside without hesitation.
“Get lost p>
He didn’t want to resort to violence in front of the child. However, Jason couldn’t understand reason, and if he continued to be troublesome, Eva would arrive soon.
After being thrown outside, Jason lost his balance and fell to the ground. He was completely stunned, and Vivian, who didn’t expect Adrian to suddenly become so angry, stood still in disbelief.
Coincidentally, at this moment, Eva, who came to find the child, had already arrived at the front of the villa.
