Chapter 1304
It was getting hot in late May.
Ruby had been sharing Adrian's schedule with Leona. But every time she reached the spot on the schedule, he was gone. That really pissed her off. She knew Adrian would change his schedule at the last minute.
But this was just too frequent. She couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with the schedule Ruby gave her. Adrian had a new office next to his old one so he could keep an eye on Aleigha.
He'd know what she did every day in the first place.
He even prepared everything she ate and used himself.
This afternoon, Adrian was having a meeting. Aleigha wasn't involved because she had other things to do.
With a loud bang, her office was forcefully pushed open. Aleigha shivered slightly and looked out the door in anger.
Leona, who she had not seen for a few days, rushed in angrily. Without a word, she threw herself on Aleigha's office table and began to cry.
"Miss Gardner, we couldn't stop her. Would you like to call the security guard?"
The secretary stood outside the door with a frightened look on her face. She remembered that Adrian telling her to take care of Aleigha.
If this crazy woman did something to Aleigha, no one was gonna get away with it.
"I'm good. Off you go."
The secretary breathed a sigh of relief and closed the door. No one knew how many times she had scolded Leona in her heart.
"What are you doing? I told you I didn't want to see you again."
Aleigha's eyes were a little cold. She didn't know what Leona was up to.
"Aleigha, are you pregnant?"
Aleigha frowned slightly, and the coldness in her eyes was stronger. "Who told you that?"
"Everyone knows Adrian's trying his best to keep you safe and sound. He was even seen going to the mother and baby store.
"The only explanation is that you're pregnant."
"So what if I'm pregnant? What's that got to do with you?"
Aleigha raised the corner of her mouth slightly, looked at her mockingly.
Leona was stunned, and her face was wet with tears. She wanted to tear Aleigha apart, but she couldn't.
"Aleigha, you misunderstood me. I'm just mad that you didn't tell me.
"I'm sorry. I thought we were friends."
Friends?
Aleigha suddenly felt that this woman was probably out of her mind.
Aleigha's silence made Leona more anxious. She hurriedly threw away her purse and knelt before Aleigha.
Hugging Aleigha's calf, she cried like hell.
Aleigha could not hear clearly what she was talking about.
Maybe it was an apology or something.
Leona cried for a long time, but Aleigha was unmoved. But Leona didn't feel embarrassed at all.
She wiped her tears and said, "Aleigha, although we haven't known each other for a long time, I regard you as my best friend. "Why can't you forgive me? Boo-hoo..."
Aleigha was speechless. For a moment, she wanted to call the psych ward.
"What are you doing? Who let you in in?"
Adrian came as soon as he knew Leona came to Aleigha again.
Leona's face changed as soon as she saw Adrian. "Aleigha, why are you doing this to me?
"Everyone says you are kind and sweet. Why do you have to make things difficult for me?"
A hint of coldness flashed in Aleigha's eyes. She looked up at Adrian and said, "Please have someone drive her out."
"Aleigha, why? Didn't I apologize to you?"
Leona was unwilling to leave. She hugged Aleigha's leg and tried her best to show sadness.
Seeing this, Adrian strode forward and grabbed her by the collar.
The next second, he picked her up, went to the door, and threw her on the ground. Then, he closed the door.
Aleigha glanced at Leona's purse on the ground. Adrian immediately got it.
He picked up the purse, opened the door, and threw it on Leona's face.
There was a ghostly cry outside the door. It was not until the security guard took Leona away that the world returned to peace.
"Why did you let her in?" Adrian's face was gloomy. Obviously, he was very angry.
"I didn't know she was insane. I thought she was here to talk to me.
"You know what? She knelt down in front of me and cried on my leg for over half an hour."
Aleigha knew that Adrian was angry, so she spoke in a relaxed tone.
"I'll tell them not to let her in again."
Adrian took a deep breath and sat opposite Aleigha. "I'll send you home later. I'm going over to Jaidyn's place to take care of something." "Well, okay."
After taking Aleigha home, Adrian left.
Aleigha was lying on the bed, reading a book. Suddenly, the phone in her bedroom rang.
It gave her a fright.
Because the caller kept silent.
She got a bit impatient and was about to hang up the phone, but there was suddenly a sizzling noise on the other end of the phone.
"Is that Aleigha? This is Uncle Atticus. Do you remember me?"
Uncle Atticus? A dark-faced, hunched middle-aged man flashed across Aleigha's mind.
"Uncle Atticus? How do you know my number?" "Aleigha, your aunt is coming to you. You have to be careful."
The signal might be bad because he hung up before he finished speaking. The phone never rang again.
Aleigha wondered how did they know her number. Why was Perla coming to her?
She needed to tell Adrian about this. She was pregnant, so she had to be careful.
It was 10 o'clock in the evening.
The doorbell rang at this moment.
After a while, the maid went to open the door.
Aleigha got up and walked to the window. There were three people standing outside the door.
Although it was dark, she knew who they were.
The servant did not know them, so she would not let them in.
Perla couldn't stand being shut out. As a shrew, she started yelling.
Phoenix rushed out with the bodyguards. Seeing them, Perla finally behaved herself.
She tried to get it, but no one would let her.
Although she came from the country, she was not as simple as most of the country people.
She actually spread the quilt on the ground and lay down with her two kids.
