"Well, there's no need to look for a surrogate anymore. Just her."
Grant suppressed his shock, not expecting the president to actually accept such a ridiculous proposal as surrogacy. Was it because he was pushed to the limit by his wife or simply because he wanted this woman?
How did he feel that the latter was more likely?
"Is that going to inform the lady?"
"No need. I'll tell her about this myself. Check where Adeline is now?"
He couldn't wait to see her at the thought of what was going on.
Grant quickly found out the exact address, Room 308 of the Grand Hyatt Hotel.
At this moment, Adeline was in dire straits in Room 308, her clothes torn in the struggle, holding a desk lamp and huddled in the corner of the bed, blood flowing down the lamp base, her face flushed abnormally, and warily staring at the dead fat man before her: "You... Don't come here, or I'll smash myself to death with a lamp, and you'll take your life and never have a peaceful life!"
Her hand holding the lamp was shaking, and the medicinal effect in her body was getting stronger and stronger. If it weren't for her willpower, she would probably have lunged at it without shame long ago.
The fat man sniffed angrily: "Stop scaring me here. You, the rich young lady, dare to risk your life?" If you have the ability, smash it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he walked over to grab the lamp in her hand. Adeline was already feeling weak all over and knew she couldn't beat him, so she simply threw it in his face and ran out of bed barefoot.
One hand quickly grabbed her hair, and she staggered and fell to her knees. The fat man pulled her clothes, revealing a snow-white and alluring back, which was still covered with the marks Felix had left last night.
"Oh, I thought you were such a pure yellow flower girl when I saw that you were determined to die, and it turned out that you had been played with by a man, then I wouldn't be polite!"
His stinky mouth came close to kiss her, Adeline felt nauseous and almost threw up, and a deep sense of despair spread in her heart.
Father, Mother...
She closed her eyes, tears streamed down the corners of her eyes, and then 'bang', the door was kicked open!
For many years after that Adeline could not forget how she felt when she saw Felix, the hope seen from despair, like the flower in the desert, the grass in the wasteland, and some indescribable feelings burning like a blazing fire.
Felix means the nine Heavens, and only the gods can dwell in it!
The fat man was kicked to the ground, clutching his egg and wailing in pain. Felix crouched down and held her in his arms, her arms encircling his neck, looking at the sullen face and feeling dazed.
"Thank you!"
A very light, very slow sentence, filled with endless heartache.
Felix looked down at her, the little woman curled up in her arms, her clothes torn, and there were still faint tear stains on her pretty cheeks.
His eyes dimmed, his beautiful jawline crumbled tightly, and he exuded an air of hostility and was terrifyingly gloomy.
He hated seeing her wounded, the first time, and this time!
"Get rid of that man and look into it thoroughly. I need to know the result as soon as possible."
Grant replied yes, sighing in his heart how much Mr. Felix cared about the woman.
The hotel manager, accompanied by a group of senior managers, was waiting outside the door, trembling with fear. As soon as he came out, he immediately went up to him and said, "Mr. Felix, why didn't you tell us when you came? Don't blame the people below for not knowing your identity. I have prepared a dinner party. Do you think it's convenient for us to have a meal together?"
"Mr. Felix" was a term used within the House of Andreas to address the head of the household as a sign of respect and admiration. Later, it spread and everyone in Jin City, in order to curry favor, also addressed him as Mr. Felix, and only Felix was allowed to use this term; no one else was qualified to do so.
Felix gave him a cold glance: "Pack up, take your men and get out tomorrow morning!"
Did he mean to buy the company?
If any other businessman is presumptuous and overreaching, Felix is truly well-funded to say this.
The boss panicked: "Mr. Felix, why is that, we have no good hospitality, you..."
Felix was too lazy to listen to him and just passed him away. Grant ordered someone to stop the boss who was trying to approach him and sighed at him: "I don't know what mistake you made?"
The innkeeper nodded, looking flustered.
Grant pointed to Adeline in Felix's arms: "Mr. Felix's woman has had an incident at your hotel. Look into it thoroughly!"
Mr Felix's woman?
Could it be the Adeline that Mr. Frank specifically ordered to destroy?
The boss was so weak that he almost knelt down. When Frank came to him for help, he didn't dare to offend House of Andreas, but he didn't expect that the woman was the woman of the head of the House of Andreas. This was a great offense.
Frank and Piper, who had been having a good time in the room, came out upon hearing the commotion and immediately questioned the innkeeper when they saw Adeline missing.
"Where is Adeline? Where has she gone? Get her back right now!"
The boss shook his head and looked at him as if he were an idiot: "Mr.Andreas, you have offended the big shots and implicated me!"
Frank sneered, his face full of indifference: "Who is there in this Jin City that I can't offend? My surname is Andreas!"
"Felix!" The boss, having said the name, was too lazy to deal with the useless second-generation heir and left with his subordinates.
frank's face turned pale and his body wobbled.
Piper took a deep breath, patted her face and laughed: "No way. How could Adeline catch up with Felix? They must have the same name."
"Maybe!"
Frank was terrified, and the two looked ahead with a pale expression.
Hot, very hot!
Adeline was twisting her body and her fingers were grasping the wall of the bath in confusion.
The warm water rushed down, and she opened her eyes uneasily and saw Felix's handsome and sullen face.
She blushed and clutched her chest: "I can wash myself. You go out."
"Where on you I haven't seen, move your hands away!"
Adeline bit her lip, her face as red as a plump and inviting peach in the steam.
A dangerous heat welled up in Felix's eyes, and he blinked slightly to suppress the heat in his body, pulling her hand away and frowning at the wound on her palm.
"Really useless, having no ability to hurt others, so only hurting oneself?"
The warm water washed over the wound. His words were cold, but his movements were gentle. The way he lowered his head and squatted down was also composed and elegant. She could see his long, slightly curled eyelashes, his high and straight nose bridge, and his perfectly alluring thin productions.
I really want to kiss him.
Adeline felt that the heat in her body was not being washed away by the water flow; instead, she felt more and more eager and uncomfortable.
She awkwardly clamped her legs, not daring to look at him anymore. She bit her lip and used the pain to relieve her physical discomfort.
A finger touched her lip, and Felix's angry voice came: "Just hurt your hand, and now you want to bite your lip. Is Miss Adeline having a tendency of self-abuse?"
It was cool, his finger.
Adeline opened her productions slightly and then held his finger in her mouth.
