Chapter 302: This Call Is Rude
Adrian Lancaster didn’t even know what was going on with him; he had so much he wanted to say to her, yet couldn’t let go of his pride.
After all, if he admitted he had fallen for her, it would be tantamount to slapping his own face.
After all, he had told her countless times that he would never fall in love with her!
But how long has it been since then?
He had developed a different kind of emotion towards her...
So, the man turned his body sideways, reaching out to hold the girl’s shoulder, his deep and burning gaze fell on her rosy lips.
Faye Turner’s heart skipped a beat!
No matter when, no matter the circumstances, she could never resist Adrian Lancaster’s damn charm!
His gaze was scorching and sincere, his handsome face inching closer...
An aura of elegance and nobility, a face so striking, with an unusual emotion in his deep eyes that had never been there before.
Faye’s slightly turned body was stiff, leaning lightly against the chair back where he held her shoulder, her eyes softly filled with emotion, her breathing growing increasingly heated.
Just as he inched closer, his alluring thin lips about to touch her rosy lips.
Adrian Lancaster’s phone and Faye Turner’s phone rang out of nowhere at the same time!
Someone was calling.
The two seemed frozen, yet instantly woke up.
What followed was an awkwardness spreading in the air!
The ringtone continued...
Adrian Lancaster released her, and she quickly tidied her hair, sat back in her seat, taking out her phone like he did.
His call was from Dustin Shepherd.
Hers was from Rachel Sherman.
Adrian Lancaster was a bit frustrated, staring at the caller display as he opened the car door to answer, "What are you doing?"
"Mr. Rhodes came over, said he had an appointment with you." Dustin inquired, "When can you be back?"
"I’m accompanying my wife for a prenatal checkup! What time do you think? I’m not a doctor!" Adrian Lancaster was really angry, "If I’m not there, just send him away!"
Dustin was stunned, today President Lancaster’s attitude... what possessed him? So impatient!
In any case, it was different from before!!
"Alright, alright, I got it." Dustin quickly and tactfully ended the call.
In the Lamborghini’s passenger seat, Faye was answering Rachel’s call.
On the other end of the line, Rachel was particularly apologetic, her voice trembling with tears, "I’m sorry, Faye, it’s all my fault, you helped me, yet I caused trouble for you."
"Rachel, this isn’t your fault, it’s your job." Faye was understanding, "It wasn’t you who made him answer like that, and it wasn’t something you could just cut off, the media wants this effect."
"I’m sorry..." Rachel cried with guilt, "Faye, I’m really sorry."
Her apology made Faye also feel disheartened, "Rachel, I just wanted to help you, not for you to blame yourself, whatever happens, as long as your job is secure, it’s worth it."
Then, Faye also told her that Adrian Lancaster’s lawyer friend would be returning to the country in a few days, and he had never lost a case.
This gave Rachel great confidence in winning the divorce case and she thanked Faye again.
But this couldn’t change her current horrible and guilty feelings.
"Rachel, it’s alright, we’re good." Faye said to comfort her, smiling, "He’s driving me to a checkup now, we’re on the way."
"Is it really okay?" Rachel was a bit surprised.
"It’s really okay, don’t worry, what he said yesterday was just in anger." She lowered her voice, "He’s already apologized to me, things between a couple are easily resolved when there are no principled issues."
However, Rachel couldn’t stand the online comments, it was really heartbreaking, a lot of defamation, and many people didn’t think highly of their marriage, even betting on their divorce.
Standing outside the car, Adrian Lancaster saw her putting down the phone after listening through the car window, then opened the car door and got back into the driver’s seat.
Faye turned to look at him.
Adrian Lancaster leaned down without hesitation, holding her shoulder, and kissed her lips!
