Sumr Sutton’s cooking skills are actually quite good. Not at a chef-level, but she’s always been taking care of herself – how could she not know the simple stuff?
Granted Adrian Walyon’s permission, she turned and went to the kitchen.
While preparing dinner, Adrian received a phone call.
It was Ryan Walyon calling; it seed there was sothing important at the company that required Adrian to co over for discussion.
Sumr Sutton peeked out from the kitchen, quietly listening to Adrian’s voice in the living room. Watching him getting ready to leave, she secretly rejoiced.
Isn’t this Ryan Walyon helping her out of a crisis once again?
"Heading out?" She looked at Adrian in the living room, unmistakably asking.
"Yeah." Adrian responded to her.
"Be careful on the road." Sumr waved to him.
Adrian turned his head to look at her, hesitating before leaving.
"If the matter is handled quickly, I’ll co back for dinner as soon as I can." His dark eyes gazed at her as he pondered, then spoke.
"No worries, no worries, it’s fine if you don’t co back tonight if you’re busy." Sumr seed in a great mood, her face lively and vibrant, quite unlike her gloomy deanor earlier today when faced with him.
Adrian raised his eyebrows slightly.
Sumr, realizing she had misspoken under his gaze, imdiately corrected herself, "I an, if you’re busy, you don’t have to co back; after all, work is more important. But if you can co back, try to co back."
Adrian walked step by step towards her, his body pressing towards her, cornering her against the wall, his arms propping up on either side of her body, his tone slow, "Want to co back?"
This question needs asking?
Sumr’s inner answer was definitely no, but she didn’t dare nod.
With Adrian’s personality, without a satisfactory answer, he probably wouldn’t bother going out; he’d directly press her to the ground until he heard the answer he wanted, right?
Sumr is a smart person, knows how to adapt.
Her hand rested on his shoulder, she lightly nodded, "Yes."
Adrian’s shimring eyes danced with a faint ripple; his thin lips curled slightly, "I’ll try to co back early then."
Sumr’s heart sank, but she had to nod, "Okay."
Adrian, satisfied, withdrew from her, took his coat and left the villa.
Listening to the sound of the car driving away outside, Sumr let out a gentle sigh.
She only hoped he was really busy tonight and couldn’t co back.
They’d only been married for two days, and she was already feeling overwheld. If Adrian continued tonight, she’d really break down.
Once Adrian left, the air seed suddenly less suffocating.
Sumr went back to the kitchen, continuing to prepare dinner.
Only having dinner herself tonight, she just casually cooked two small dishes – beef with green peppers, and a plain cabbage.
Resolving dinner simply, she went upstairs to read.
...
Adrian drove straight to Walyon Clan Tower, arriving as Ryan Walyon was hosting the ergency eting.
Walyon Clan Group’s business covers a wide range, including ga developnt and film investnt.
Walyon Clan originally designed a gaming plan, but unexpectedly encountered theft of comrcial secrets, which were leaked.
For businesses, the greatest fear is the leaking of secrets, resulting in direct losses impacting billions, even tens of billions.
"How did this happen?" Adrian strode in, asking with a cold face.
"Still investigating, the police have been notified. They will investigate, and I’ll cooperate on my side as well. But the most important thing now is to think about how to mitigate the losses," Ryan said.
