Chapter 13 I struggled to get to where I am now

Felix sent her straight back to the Splendid Garden, and they were going upstairs to sleep when his phone rang.

Adeline looked at his expression, which was an unconscious anxiety, and after he hung up, couldn't help asking, "What happened?"

His eyes flickered and he nodded: "Well, there's something going on with the company project. I'll deal with it."

He was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and turned back to her, saying, "I already know about your aunt's lawsuit against you. Don't panic. I'll send a lawyer to handle it."

Adeline nodded with a brilliant smile: "Well, I know, I trust you!"

Her gaze towards him was so warm, and her smile was like the winter sun, dispelling all the darkness in one's heart.

Felix was in a trance and suddenly felt a seed slowly sprouting somewhere in his heart.

He got back into the car, and the phone rang again. He looked at the name on the screen, which he had already memorized, and hesitated for a moment. Finally, he reached out and hung up.

At this moment, in front of the house, he had no mood to answer the phone.

Felix said that sending someone to solve it for her was not just empty talk. He invited Tang Zhi, the most famous lawyer in Country A. After getting A general understanding of the situation with her, he smiled easily: "Don't worry, Young lady. I'm very sure of this case. I can definitely help you regain Canhua."

Adeline was happy in her heart. Tang Zhi, the great lawyer, said that if she could win, it would be a hundred percent certainty, but...

"Mr. Tang, why did you call me Young madam? Did you get something wrong?"

"No, it was I who made the marriage agreement between you and Mr. Felix. I naturally know your identity. But don't worry, young madam. In front of others, I will still respectfully call you Miss Adeline. I will never make it difficult for you and Mr. Felix."

It turns out that their marriage is not unknown!

Adeline felt inexplicably happy and said, "Lawyer Tang is too kind. It's me who should thank you."

After seeing Tang off, she looked at her watch. It was already four o 'clock in the afternoon and it was almost evening. She didn't know if Felix would come back.

He hadn't been back for two days, and he didn't call to say he was safe as usual, nor did he have the nerve to ask.

Manager Zhang saw through her mind at a glance: "Did the young lady miss the master?"

Adeline glared at her: "What are you thinking all day long? He... He's not the kind of person I can think about."

Her tone dropped, and so did her mood.

What kind of person Felix was, who was so distant from her that she couldn't it out even more.

The phone rang, and Adeline's face was delighted, but when she saw the contact shown on the screen, her expression turned cold.

Piper!

She hung up, but soon rang again, Adeline impatiently answered: "What are you still calling me for? There's nothing much to talk about between us."

"Adeline, don't hang up yet. I really have something to tell you. Let's meet up."

"I'm busy, see you!"

"Adeline!" Piper cried out anxiously, her voice full of wailing: "Please, for the sake of our four years of college, save me, will you?"

Adeline couldn't bear to hear her mournful cry. During her four years of college, she had only a few friends, and Piper was one of her close friends.

Where are you? I'll go and find you.

Piper immediately gave her address and Adeline hung up the phone and drove to her apartment.

As soon as she knocked on the door, the back door opened abruptly and a figure pounced on her. Adeline was so startled that she pushed it away: "What are you doing!"

Piper watched her tears roll out at once: "Adeline, in this Jin City, I have only you."

Adeline looked at her in shock. Was she still that glamorous big star? Her face had been slapped high and swollen, with patches of blue and purple. The corners of her mouth were cracked and bleeding. Her silk pajamas had been torn and hung on her body. Her exposed skin was full of marks from the beating.

"You... How did you end up like this?"

Piper covered her face and burst into tears: "Frank came to me in the morning and before he could speak to me, he beat me up, a slut and a bitch, saying I was a drag on him, I was knocked unconscious, when I woke up, the agency said they wanted to fire me, Adeline, why, why I became like this overnight, you know best. I've put in so much effort to get to where I am today, why?"

She crouched down in agony, with bruises all over her slender arms and bleeding in some places.

Probably because of what happened at the old lady's birthday party, the media reported that she, a public figure, naturally fell from grace.

But Frank is so bad that he actually hit a woman!

Adeline sighed slightly: "Stop crying. You read the news yourself and you'll know what karma is."

Piper had been crying and flustered since the incident and had not yet had time to read the news. Hearing this, she immediately opened her phone and looked at the ugly photo posted about her and frank, and burst into tears.

Her voice was sharp and Adeline's eardrums felt uncomfortable. She handed her a tissue and said, "Stop crying. You've reaped what you've sown. I don't have the capacity to help you in return. Take care of yourself."

She said that and was about to leave.

"No!" Piper panicked, grabbed her trouser leg at once, and looked at her with tearful eyes: "Adeline, I know I was wrong, I was vain, I was jealous of you, I shouldn't have been mixed with this scumbag frank, I'm sorry, but you are the only person I can think of when I'm in trouble, you know, I'm an orphan, my parents have passed away, I have endured so much hardship to go to college, to get out of poverty, to survive, I can't just be ruined like this!"

Adeline can be said to have watched her struggle all the way, from an indifferent extras to a leading actress, she knows how much hardship she has endured, but so what?

"Piper, you once told me that you would be happy to buy a new outfit, and then you had a new outfit and you wanted brand-name cosmetics, a car, a house, and fame. When you had all of them, you didn't think about how to keep them, but had thoughts you shouldn't have, ruined yourself, and ruined our relationship. Now you ask me, but I can only show you a little pity, And I really can't convince myself to be friends with you again, do you understand?"

Piper nodded painfully: "I understand, but Adeline, you're a little wrong. I don't have a house. It's rented for me by the company. I've only been famous for two or three years. It seems I make more money, but actually I have more places to spend. Saying the house was bought is just to show off in front of my classmates. The company is coming to take the house tomorrow. I have nowhere to go!"

"Adeline, you are the only friend I can trust in Jincheng. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, please help me!"
