Chapter 1072 Give the Bonuses to the Babies
Doris said, "Is it? His sister is in the other stroller; would you like to take a look?"
Gladys put the gift on the table, walked to the stroller in front of Mrs. Flores, and carefully observed the little baby girl inside. With big, piercing eyes and thick eyelashes, this baby is as cute as a doll.
After a few seconds, she questioned Doris, "Are they Mr. Adelmar’s kids?" NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
"Do they look alike?" Doris avoided the question.
Gladys thought she was being played. "Yes, they do! I thought Mr. Adelmar was single!"
Doris smiled and said, "He is single. But for a man as outstanding as him, no one can prevent him from having children, right?"
"How about you? What’s your relationship with him?" Gladys frowned.
Doris replied, "I am not his wife. He is indeed single."
Gladys replied coldly, "But I am very strict with my partner. I don't allow him to have other women, nor do I allow him to have children other than mine!"
"He shouldn't have hidden his situation from you, right?" she asked frankly.
She lowered her head slightly and said, "I didn’t believe him. I think he lied to reject me."
"You should have seen the truth. Sometimes people are just too stubborn. They have to witness it with
their own eyes before they believe it." Doris said.
Gladys turned pale, and she said coldly, "I misunderstood! I shouldn't have bothered coming! Farewell!"
"Ms. Reyes, your gifts." Doris handed Gladys the gift box she brought. Gladys took it while suppressing her anger; she turned around and left. "Pardon us, we won't be able to see you off!" Doris said it politely.
She watched Gladys leave and finally took a deep breath. It's really testing her acting skills; the Oscar now owes her an award!
Mrs. Flores laughed relievedly: "Una and Nessa are such great contributors without saying a word!"
"That’s right! Their looks are the best weapons to block Mr. Adelmar’s unwanted admirers!" Doris said.
Clap! Applause came from the second floor. Doris and Mrs. Flores looked up; it was Waylon. With satisfaction written all over his face, he walked down gracefully.
"I didn’t think it would be that easy." Doris said that, but she was sweating after everything.
Waylon said, "It’s good enough. She just doesn’t care how much I rejected her, and I couldn’t afford to make our relationship bad."
Doris smiled and said, "I did nothing much; you should thank Una and Nessa."
Waylon picked Nessa up in his arms and said, "You are right! I should award them with bonuses! How about one hundred thousand dollars each?"
"Oh my! We can’t take it, Mr. Adelmar! You have paid me well enough; we absolutely can’t take the bonuses!" Doris quickly rejected his suggestion.
Waylon glanced at Doris and asked, "What are you getting excited about? I'm not giving you the bonus! Do you know how much trouble I have saved by resolving that matter? I hate dealing with women the most, let alone when she wants to get more from me! It took so little effort to settle this matter; two hundred thousand dollars is worth it! Not to mention that we didn’t turn against the Health Department!" All she dared to do was keep quiet the whole time.
Doris was uneasy. "But it’s easy money, and I am worried now." She understood that Mr. Adelmar was rich; she should just follow his way if he could settle anything with money. She acquiesced to his decision in the end.
Waylon snorted, "You better pray we will never run into something difficult! Remember, you are paid by me to settle them!"
Doris was tongue-tied by his words, as usual.
