Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Ricardo fiddled with his car keys in his hand and entered Adam’s office at a brisk pace.

When he entered, Adam and Santino were talking about the works, -Hey, brother-in-law, I’m bothering you.

Santino saw him confused, “Mr. Adam, and what are you doing here?

Adam closed the documents and ordered Santino in a light voice, “You go down first.

Santino nodded and smiled politely as he passed Ricardo.

When Santino left, Adam raised his hand and loosened the tie around his neck, “What are you doing here with me first thing in the morning instead of sleeping?

Ricardo was astonished and rushed over, “Brother-in-law, you’re not going to keep your word, are you? Didn’t my father give you permission for me to come to work at the Rouco Group?

-It was your father who gave you permission to come to work for the Rouco Group, but I did not promise you.

Ricardo smiled instead of getting angry, “Brother-in-law, honestly, you are afraid that if I spend time with Estrella, she will fall in love with me, aren’t you?

Adam stopped laughing immediately.

-I don’t think you are suitable to work for the Rouco Group.

-Dude, I haven’t even started yet and you’re already saying I’m inadequate. Aren’t you and Estrella inadequate too? Estrella is only twenty-four, you are already thirty-two, and there is a difference of eight years between you. In my opinion, you’re just afraid that Estrella will choose me. After all, everyone thinks I’m Estrella’s better half.

Adam was so intelligent and wise, how could he not see such a pedestrian provocation from Ricardo, but on the contrary, he knew it was a provocation from Ricardo, but his heart was unconsciously angry, -Since you want to come to work at the Rouco Group so much, I can give you a chance. But if you simply want to come to pick up girls, you can leave now.

As soon as Ricardo heard Adán’s promise, he immediately joked, “Brother-in-law, am I that kind of a Donjuán? My father told me that if I didn’t get anything at the Rouco Group within a year, I would go home and inherit his properties. I’m here to work seriously.

As for “picking up girls”, without delaying either.

-Then you’re still busy, I’ll go to the creative department to join the work first.

Seeing Adam’s cold face and no further obstructions, Richard immediately withdrew, fearing that Adam would regret it.

After Ricardo left, when Santino came in with the documents, he saw Adam frowning, in a bad mood, “Boss, Mr. Rocardp bothered you?

Adam asked thoughtfully, “Eight years, is that much of a difference?

Santino was surprised, -You mean, between you and Miss Estrella?

Adam’s face was cold and he did not respond. Santino quickly smiled and said, -How can it be? This is the liveliest time for men. How many young 18 year old girls in this town want to run after you, your age and Miss Estrella, are the right ones. –

It is often said that there is a three-year generation gap. Eight years apart, that is, a little more than two generations apart. However, in their circle, pairs of young wives and older husbands are very common. Moreover, Adam and Estrella are not that far apart in age.

Adam has the composure and poise expected of a grown man, with a perfectly erect, model-like body. His features are handsome and three-dimensional. He and twenty-four-year-old Estrella were together as a couple.

Seeing that his boss was still pouting, Santino said again nervously, “Boss, on the news, there’s a seventy year old man is paired with an eighteen year old girl, what’s wrong with being paired with a twenty-four year old girl, it’s very normal.

The boss raised an eyebrow and asked the opposite, “You mean Estrella and I are a match between an old man and a young woman?

The corners of Santino’s mouth twitched, how dare he? -I … didn’t mean that, you and Miss Estrella can’t be considered like that, you’re just and proper!

Santino thought in his heart, -Men in love, are they all so serious?

Adam changed his words and went to the point, “What are you looking for me for?

When Adam asked this question, Santino did not dare to speak.

Adam had ordered him to keep an eye on Estrella’s situation. He had just heard some gossip about Estrella and was about to go tell Adam, but if he told him now, wouldn’t Adam get even angrier?

-I… Boss, I think it’s better if I tell you later, besides, it’s not very important.

The man ordered, -If you have something to say, say it quickly, if you have nothing to say, leave right now.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Santino really wanted to “leave”, but he still said nervously, -This morning… is Mr. Ricardo sent Miss Estrella to work, but he was seen by someone from the creative department. And the department is all female, also you know, where there are a lot of women there are a lot of gossips, that group of people…-.

Before Santino could finish his verbiage, he was interrupted by the man, -Get to the point.-.

-The question is that the entire creative department now thinks that Ms. Estrella is Mr. Ricardo’s girlfriend and believes that Ms. Estrella can work in the Rouco Group because of her relationship with Ricardo.

The man was visibly annoyed, “Why would Estrella come to work in Ricardo’s car in the morning?

-That… is something I’m not sure about, why don’t I… go find out for you?

The man said directly, “Tell Estrella to come and see me.

Ugh, he should just “leave” the office, he shouldn’t tell Adam this, -I will leave immediately.

…

As soon as Santino entered the creative department, he caused quite a stir. Especially when he approached Estrella, the female employees in the creative department were stunned.

-Miss Estrella, the boss wants you to go to his office.

If eyes could kill, at this moment Estrella feared she was long dead. She looked around a little uncomfortably and stiffly followed Santino out of the creative department.

The women in the creative department must be thinking, -This Star is not simple, not only is she dating a rich man like Señor Ricardo, even Adam, who is at the top of the pyramid, is looking for her. A woman serving an uncle and a nephew at the same time, what a complicated relationship!

…

After Estrella followed Santino to the elevator, she asked curiously, “Assistant Santino, is there something Mr. Adam is looking for me?

-Well… I don’t know, you can ask yourself later.

Santino thought in his heart, Miss Star, be careful, a man with jealousy can be very horrible.

When Santino led Estrella into the office, Adán did not look at them, kept his head down and worked attentively.

Santino cautiously recalled, “Chief, Miss Estrella is here.

The man still did not present his attention to them, he only indifferently ordered Santino, -You go out first.

Estrella stood there for half a minute, but Adam didn’t even look at her.

Estrella lowered her eyes slightly and looked at the watch on her wrist to start the seconds. After another minute, she finally couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Adam, what is it that you are looking for?

Hearing what he said, Adam asked, “You? Am I old?
