Fatal Love：CEO, please let me go

However, the more she acted as though she had nothing to hide, the more she proved the contrary. Mary looked at her and then looked at Damon’s expression. She probably guessed something. She smiled and walked to the side, no longer bothering the two of them.

Damon looked at the woman who lowered her head and only ate the dish in front of her. Her face was so red that she refused to raise her head. The smile on his face became even wider.

She was quite cute like this, and he couldn’t help but want to tease her.

He deliberately cleared his throat and reminded her, “Don’t just eat vegetables. Eat some meat as well.”

Although she usually ate a lot, she couldn’t gain any weight. When they came back from the grand house last time, Grandma had specially instructed him to urge Adele to eat more and supplement her body.

“Oh.” Adele casually responded.

She suddenly thought that he had an injury on his waist and needed to eat something for dietary supplements.

Thinking of this, she turned around and called Mary, “Mary, what is it that is suitable for dietary supplements?”

“Dietary supplement?” Mary stopped what she was doing and said, “Turtles, pig kidneys, and pigeon eggs will all do.”

Hearing this, Adele said without hesitation, “Next time, make some of them for Damon.”

When she said this, the expression on Mary’s face was a little subtle. She looked at Damon and then agreed, “Okay.”

Damon noticed the smile on Mary’s face and almost instantly realized that something was wrong. He tightened his grip on the chopsticks and immediately said, “No need.”

With his physique, did Adele think he needed supplements?

“Why not?” Adele ate a mouthful of ribs and did not realize the meaning of the topic at all. She said with certainty, “I think you should take in some supplements.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Damon’s face became more and more unappealing.

This woman, really…

Damon was angry and helpless. Looking at Adele’s ignorant appearance, he could not be angry anymore. He could only remain silent.

Mary looked at the young couple, shook her head with a smile, and walked into the kitchen.

After dinner, Adele wanted to go back to her room to take a good shower. Before she took a few steps, someone caught up with her.

Suddenly, her wrist tightened. She turned around and saw Damon.

“What’s wrong?” Adele was stunned.

Perhaps it was her own imagination, but Adele felt that the man seemed to be a little unhappy.

“Do you think I am not strong enough?” Damon could not help but frown.

She had said that in front of Mary, and did she not care about his feelings?

“You… weren’t you injured? I said it for your own good!” Adele said with certainty.

Seeing the woman like this, Damon did not know how to make things clear, so he could only raise his eyebrows helplessly.

He let go of her and strode towards the study.

Looking at the man’s back, Adele thought of something and suddenly called out to him, “Wait a minute!”

“What’s wrong?” Damon stopped walking.

Thinking about the task that her mom had given her, Adele took a deep breath. “I have something to tell you…”

If she did not tell Damon about the wedding, she was afraid that her mom would come to ask him personally.

“The other day my mom asked me when we planned to hold the wedding.” Adele suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Hearing the word “wedding”, Damon’s face suddenly became a little serious.

“My parents mean that since the two of us have already gotten our certificates, we should hold the wedding as soon as possible. It doesn’t have to be particularly extravagant and high-profile. It’s just that the family of both sides will gather together for a chat…”

Damon frowned. After pausing for a moment, he finally said, “I’m afraid I can’t promise you…”

With his status, the slightest movement would cause a stir in River City’s gossip, let alone a big event like marriage. He was afraid that not only would it affect him and Yusuf family, but it would also affect the entire Yusuf Group.

Therefore, he could only register his marriage in private, but it was absolutely impossible to hold a wedding.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Adele seemed shocked and wasn’t expecting Damon to refuse outrightly. She was stunned for a few seconds and then forced a smile. She wanted to ask the reason, but before she could speak, Damon had already spoken.

“You know my situation, and also know the influence of public opinion on the company. If we hold a wedding, it will inevitably be known by outsiders, so I can’t give you a wedding.”

When Adele heard this, she suddenly felt unspeakable repression and discomfort.

She did not want such a grand wedding. It was enough as long as it was unique. But now it seemed that she had no choice at all.

Seeing the sadness in the woman’s eyes, Damon could not bear it.

Adele was silent for a long time. She suddenly looked up and looked at Damon seriously. “Actually… I can understand.”

Ever since she saw the scars on his body, she had known that he could not help it on many occasions.

“As long as we can live a good life, it doesn’t matter whether we have a wedding or not.”

Seeing the panic in the woman’s eyes, Damon felt a little complicated. He paused and said softly, “I will make it up to you.”

He would slowly make it up to her.

When Adele heard this, her heart warmed, and she narrowed her eyes with a smile.

With these words from him, she was satisfied.

Damon, on the other hand, was in a different state of mind as he stood at the side.

He was afraid that one day when Adele found out his true purpose, she would no longer smile at him like this.

The next day, Adele went to work as usual. Just as she arrived at the office, she saw a thick stack of documents piled up on the desk.

She didn’t need to ask to know that this was Grace’s doing. Giving her so much basic work was obviously intentional.

After thinking about it, Adele was too lazy to argue with her and decided to start the work at hand.

After a busy day, she had not completed the task assigned to her by Grace. It seemed that she had to work overtime today.

Adele sighed, stretched, sat down, and continued to work. The phone on the table suddenly rang.

She picked it up and glanced at it. It was a message from Damon, and she could not help but be shocked.

It had always been her who took the initiative to send a message to Damon. This was the first time he had taken the initiative to do so.

“After work tonight, I will wait for you in the underground garage.”

Seeing this sentence, Adele was immediately elated and a smile appeared on her face.

Damon would be waiting for her for them to go home together!

She could not hide the joy in her heart and held the phone happily for a long time.

Suddenly, the door of the office was pushed open and Shirley walked in quickly. “Adele, Corine is looking for you. She wants you to go to her office quickly!”

Seeing that Shirley was nervous, Adele was stunned and asked, “What happened?”
