His Domineering Lover

Because Adrian knew their situation, he didn't chase them away and let them stay.

In the evening, when Aleigha went downstairs to get some water, she saw the mother and daughter sitting in the living room and watching TV, still acting cautious.

Seeing Aleigha, the lady smiled and said polite words. Her daughter was a little cold.

Standing aside, she didn't even look at Aleigha.

This made her a little curious, so she simply sat on the other side of the sofa.

"By what did you come? When are you planning on leaving?"

"We don't have such a plan."

The lady didn't say anything, but her daughter replied coldly.

The lady quickly winked at her daughter and said with a smile, "We want to stay and find a way out."

"My late husband's parents are, well, not the most easy-going persons. Sorry to trouble you."

Aleigha realized their intentions and said with a smile, "I do need a janitor at my company."

"If you feel like it, I can totally show you around. You don't have to worry about the accommodation, it all comes with the job."

"And who the hell do you think you are, asking my mom to mop the floor for you? Do you think you can insult others just because you married Adrian?"

Aleigha had learned from Adrian that there were three reasons the lady wasn't getting along well with her parents-in-law.

First, she came from a low-born family, her parents being vendors. Second, before marrying into the family, she was already pregnant.

Thirdly, she didn't do a really good job bringing up the girl, who dropped out of senior high school.

The girl, allegedly, had had quite a few abortions already, which caused her to be even more of an abomination of the family.

Hearing this, a hint of coldness flashed in Aleigha's eyes. She raised her lips and said with a faint smile, "Right, you do make a point. It's not appropriate for a Xiao to be working at such a position." "It's good that you know that!"

The girl glanced at Aleigha with a calm face, as if nothing had happened.

Seeing this, Aleigha stood up and went upstairs.

"What kept you?" Adrian put down the book in his hand and looked at Aleigha, who was walking in.

"Your cousin is quite high-maintenance, isn't she?"

"I offered your aunt to work at my company as a janitor, which seemed to have offended her daughter quite much."

"Are you angry?" Adrian asked in a gentle voice as he wrapped his arm around Aleigha's shoulders.

"I'm not angry, but I think it's ridiculous." Aleigha shook her head slightly and sighed. She was not angry because of this.

The next morning.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

The incessant knocking on the door woke up the two of them in their dreams.

"Who the..." Adrian got up from his bed angrily and couldn't help but yell.

Aleigha gently rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up. "I'm afraid it's your aunt or cousin."

The servants at home never knocked on their door.

"Adrian, get up. It's time for breakfast." The cousin said in a delicate voice outside.

"Are you deaf or something? Get lost!"

Adrian threw the pillow at the door in anger.

As soon as he finished speaking, he hugged Aleigha and lay down again.

'Adrian, that's your cousin after all."

Adrian closed his eyes and frowned. "I just want to sleep."

After sleeping enough, Adrian pulled Aleigha down the stairs.

However, the mother and daughter sat on the sofa and watched TV as if nothing had happened.

"Just give them some money and tell them to piss off."

Adrian walked to the dining room and did not look at the two of them the entire time. Aleigha was pulled to the side by him and sat down.

"Adrian, all we ask of you is a way out for us, not some charity money."

"If you don't wanna help us, fine, but you don't have to insult us with your money."

The lady, despite her miserable background and life, still seemed to value her esteem quite much.

Adrian didn't say a word as he chowed on his breakfast.

"Adrian, give us one million and well leave."Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

A million?

The corner of Aleigha's mouth curled into a smile.

Adrian remained silent.

"Adrian, a million doesn't really mean

anything to a man as rich as you does it? The girl's eyes were brimming with tears as she asked in a loud voice.

"It does." Adrian put down the forks in his hands and raised his eyes to look at the two of them.

"I've heard about your story. I won't even give you a buck, much less a million."

"When your husband was alive, you did whatever you wanted with his money, Now that he's gone, the first thing that kicks into your mind is to find another host so you can suck off their blood, am I telling the story right?"

The two of them were speechless, but there was no shame on their faces.

The girl even gave Aleigha a hard look.

Aleigha was a little confused by her ridiculous look.

"Adrian, you are heartless. When my father passed away, you promised that I could come to you for help and you would deliver."

"You wouldn't even give us a million dollars, how do you live with yourself?"

"Get them out!"

Adrian had spoken enough and was fed up with her words.

"Don't you dare touch me! If anyone touches me, I'll kill myself right here and now!"

Seeing the guards coming up, the lady lay flat on the ground.

"Phoenix, have them thrown out."

Throughout the whole process, Aleigha didn't say a single word for them. She knew how despicable these people could be.

Phoenix came in with four bodyguards and threw them out of the Xiao's house.

The whole house became quiet again.

"Aren't you afraid they'd come back and do something?"

Aleigha whispered with a smile, holding her bread.

"What can they possibly do, go to the press, tell them how mean I am, how cold I am in the face of their misery?"

After breakfast, Adrian took Aleigha out and they would go to the house of the director of the Customs. Corbin, the director, was a comrade of Valentino. They were said to be very close.

But Corbin was aided by the father of Jaidyn back in the day, which made Jaidyn able to take advantage of him. And hence the help Aleigha received from him.

The car came out of the garage. Before the car sped up, someone rushed in front of it and lay on the ground.

Adrian frowned and took the lead to

get

it was

the car. When he saw who

n the ground, his eyes were

filled with coldness.

"How long are you gonna lie down there?"

The person on the ground did not move, as if dead.

"Phoenix, clip her." As soon as Adrian finished his words, the one on the ground leaped up.

She glared fiercely at Adrian. "Adrian, you'll regret it."

Aleigha did not say anything. She only regarded the girl as a mere joke.

Adrian wasn't an ordinary person. And as for the girl.

Adrian looked down at his cousin and said with a sneer, "Those who threatened me are all six feet under now."

His cousin shivered as she looked at Adrian with fear in her eyes.

"Caroline, let's go. Since he doesn't care about us, let's just... forget about it..."

Her mother ran over and took Caroline's hand to

leave.

"I will make him regret it, I will make him regret it," Caroline kept mumbling, and was pulled away by her mother.

It was only after the two Of them had left that Adrian finally got in the car.
