His Domineering Lover

"Wanna smoke?"

Adrian took out a cigarette and handed it to Darien.

Looking at the cigarette handed over, Darien smiled and took it.

Darien lit the cigarette and gave the lighter back to Adrian.

"Why did you come here? Are your parents doing good?"

Adrian exhaled the smoke, speaking in a rare soft tone.

"You know it, I'm regarded as a jerk in their eyes. My father is weak and always vulnerable to my mom's wills.

I am suffering in the middle of them. I never got praised to do something well, not mention to if I'm messing up."

Adrian shook his head and sighed, "Yes, Uncle has always been like this. But when I was young, I thought he was more mature than my father.

I would rather call him brother. When recalling this, I felt I am really unscrupulous."

Darien also seemed to remember something, and he smiled. "I visited grandpa before."

"Oh? You mentioned me?"

Darien nodded. "He is missing you. If you have time, go back to see him more."

"Sure."

"Take good care of Aleigha. I'll leave now."

Darien came and left in a hurry. Even though he didn't imply anything, Adrian understood all.

It was very likely that his mother made a fuss.

Sure enough, the next morning, Adrian's aunt came to the hospital.

At the same time, Aleigha was transferred from ICU to luxurious single ward.

His aunt's charm strengthened even at middle age, especially in recent years. In the hospital, her perfume was smelled even when she walked far away. When seeing Adrian, she smiled brightly as if she was an outsider of everything.

"Adrian, what happened? Why did Aleigha suddenly go to the hospital?"

Adrian found that his aunt wasn't as cold as before, he smiled but didn't answer. "Why are you coming here?"

She narrowed her eyes and observed Adrian. "You get a daughter?" "Yes, it's a girl."

"Well, a daughter was difficult to pass on your wealth. You need a boy."

Her words sounded sharp, but Adrian didn't care about them.

"We're still young and we have plenty of time. How about you? Are you still waiting for your grandson?"

A touch of embarrassment showed on her face. "Sure... Yeah, you're right."

Adrian lit another cigarette and stopped talking.

He had patience to wait in the silence, however, his aunt was a little restless.

"Well, Adrian, I heard that your business in Germany and the US doing very well.

As far as I know, anyone who can make his business successful like you in the US must be brilliant, especially under the chairmen's suppression. Look at Darien, aren't you going to help him?"

"Could you tell me how should I help him?"

Hearing Adrian asking, his aunt was suddenly happy and smiled even brighter.

"Why don't you hand over your business in the US to Darien? We're a family. We should be strong together."

Adrian looked at her with a pair of darkened eyes. "You're good at planning."

"What are you talking about? Hah-hah, I'm just discussing with you. Anyway, it's up to you."

The aunt seemed to be not uncomfortable with her fake smile. It was so fake that only the blind couldn't tell her mind.

"No."

Adrian flicked off his cigarette butt, smiling at his aunt too. It was rare to see him smiled this happy.

"How dare you!"

"It's not your first day to know me, it's not the first time I reject you either. What? You didn't expect I would say so?" "Adrian, you're too arrogant."

Aunt's face turned gloomy, and her gaze toward Adrian contained a trace of viciousness.

Being used to her temper, Adrian didn't take it seriously but just smiled.

"Don't you know why I'm so arrogant? Didn't you teach me that?"

"Okay, okay. I know you've grown up. Fine."

"Goodbye, aunt, take care."

Even though his aunt was tough, Adrian always had ways to tackle her. No matter how hard she begged, as long as Adrian didn't agree, she could do nothing but leave.

This time, it was no exception. His aunt left in anger.

Next second, Adrian's phone rang.

"Did my mom go there?"

"Yes, she just left."

"I'm sorry."

"It's okay. I am used to it."

"Fine."

Darien said helplessly. Adrian hung up the phone and then called his assistant.

"Are the two small factories in India still operating?"

"Yes, they are doing very good, Mr. Xiao."

"Okay, I see."

Later was dinner time. Aleigha could eat some light food. Adrian ordered the servants to cook light soup and soft rice for her.

This was the first formal meal that Aleigha had after the car accident.

Because of her injuries, she had to take a C-section for the baby, and it prevented her from getting off the bed until today.

Adrian sat beside the bed and fed her.

"Where is the baby? When can I see her?"

As soon as thinking of the small baby who was described as a thin ugly kitty by Adrian, Aleigha was anxious.

"She's ugly. Why see her?"

"Come on, she is our daughter. No matter how ugly she is, she is still our daughter. You can't comment her like this."

Her anxious and angry look amused Adrian.

"The baby is in the thermal

container, and I can only see her for

a while every day. The doctor said

that she is good. When you can

walk, let's go to see her."

Aleigha pressed her lips and fiercely drank up the soup in the spoon.

"Look at me, when can I get off the bed?"

"You're right. Just lie."

Aleigha's injury was extremely serious. The intense collision that day made her body part below her neck barely felt anything.

Fortunately, it was a temporary condition. Her spine was not damaged. But her organs were hurt to different levels.

When the accident happened, her head and body wasn't completely protected by the airbag because she bent down to pick up her phone.

In the hospital, she s diagnosed ribs and fungs were broken and slight cerebral concussion. Together with premature delivery, Adrian was notified the critical condition of her. en.swhovels.net

Later, Adrian told Aleigha about her injury. Of course, he spoke in a light tone and didn't inform her of the whole situation.

After a few days of rescue, she had woken up and her consciousness was back. However, she was still unable to walk.

It should be at least three months to wait until she fully recovered.

"Adrian, ask the servants to take care of me these days. You should go back to take a good sleep."

Looking at Adrian's increasingly thin face, Aleigha's heart ached.

"I can have a good rest here."

He lowered his head and blew the soup.

"You're lying. You should go back today. Leave immediately, I don't want to see you."Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Seeing that Adrian tended to be disobedient, Aleigha was angry.

"Still ungrateful. I don't trust others."

"I don't trust you can rest well here! Go home, right now, or I won't eat."
